Supernatural Design Gets "New Look" After Whiskey Baron Misunderstanding

 

 

What do you do when you piss off a giant whiskey bottling company? 

 

I know what you saying... who would piss off the masters of happy juice? Yep... we did! BUT, we didn't just lay down and take it. We took the beautiful, classic tee shirt design WE created, waved our magic wand over it, and came up with something that basically looks exactly the same. For the handful of hard core fans who said... hey wait a gosh darn moment, we wanted to offer an explanation.

 

And to the credit of the unnamed whiskey company of which we can't name, but does rhymes with Crack Annuals, they deeply care about every aspect of their product. And while we thought we were complimenting them in a very non obvious way, there were some people who said, Hey isn't that supposed to be so and so's whiskey bottle? And to that we say no! It's Supernatural whiskey... can't you read the label?

 

And really that's the point of the shirt. Our intention is to celebrate Supernatural and the fans of that TV show. No one at Mixed Tees even considered the impact to Shack Waaniels except maybe the designer who keeps a bottle of it on his desk in order to work the 16 hours a day we require.

 

The worst part of all this is no one is paying for the lost man hours we spent peeling Lack Spaniels lawyers off the ceiling. We finally convinced them we weren't selling their brand, but we were extremely proud that we'd got their attention.

No joke, this was the phone call from our point of view...

 

BEX ANSWERS THE PHONE

 

"Mixed Tees, can I help you?"

 

"uh huh." 

 

"Yes. "

 

"No we didn't." 

 

"Nope, didn't mean to." 

 

"What does body of evidence mean? Is that a TV show?"

 

"I wasn't trying to be funny."

 

"No, I don't want to go to court. Judges make me nervous. Is Judge Judy really that mean?"

 

"Smart what? Like the donkey?"

 

"Yes ma'am we are very sorry. If we do, can you send us any samples for the office?"

 

"Oh, you do just the legal stuff. Sorry."

 

"Yes, we'll comply right away. I don't want to get sick. I was told lawyers are infected by vermin or something like that."
