We don't sell Chipotle burritos, and we rarely endorse other companies on this blog (unless were paid handsome amounts), but this is a pretty fantastic promotion that Chipotle runs every year. Chipotle produces the best fast food burrito around. Its no competition. As a vegetarian I've always wished that they introduce tofu to the menu, like Moe's does. But even without the Tofu, Chipotle's burritos are second to none.

I also love Chipotle for many other reasons. Their marketing is brilliant and right up our alley. They are always looking for reasons to give out burritos. They probably give out more burritos than we give t-shirts.

So today go to any Chipotle after 6 and wear some foil. If you're really into the whole environment thing then you can just take some foil from a previous customer's burrito. Reduse, reuse, recyle.

Hello funny t-shirt world. Here's a new shirt that might be good for our wholesale customers and our online customers.

Daniel G., who helps us out at Bentley University just came up with this t-shirt. Here's the concept;

The Graphic: A guy running a marathon who's out of breath.

Text: I hope they cure cancer,

Cause I’m tired of running 5k

Crooked Monkey has been selling overseas since August of 2006 when we started selling to Nano Universe in Japan. That was an exciting first step for us, as Crooked Monkey had become an international brand. Since then, we've sold to numerous non-US entities, including Saudi Arabia, Canada (although it's basically a suburb of America), Singapore, England, Hong Kong, and India.

We can now add the Philippines to that illustrious list. We met Rustan's at a show in New York City and they fell in love with our funny t-shirts. We're shipping this department store at the end of November, so if you're in the Phillipines look out for the Crooked Monkey brand.

We just got a very sweet email from a loyal customer of Crooked Monkey's funny t-shirts, and we decided to share it with you all.

"I LOVE my Pluto tee-shirt, and would love to buy extras for when it wears out. Any chance it will come out of retirement?"

Amanda really loves her shirt, and we love her for it. Since the shirt is retired, I'd suggest wearing it a little less often, and taking more pictures of you enjoying the shirt. Maybe even putting it away for your kids, so that they too can enjoy the wonders of funny t-shirts.

What's the deal with retired t-shirts? We love every t-shirt we produce--our strict standards require a long vetting process (not unlike that of the Vice Presidential candidates)--but all good things must come to an end. And in the interest of remaining fresh and keeping our shirts unique, we retire shirts. If we never retired the shirt, then it would be mass produced. And that's no fun.

We donated some funny t-shirts to the "Penta Cares Charity Golf Outing" and they raised over $36,000. The charity gives money to the American Diabetes Foundation.

This is just one of the ways that Crooked Monkey gives back to the community. If you have a charity that needs help, let us know. Our funny t-shirts raise both money and spirits!

I thought you would all be excited to hear that Crooked Monkey now offers its CEO health insurance. It's a pretty big move--considering the fact that I've been uninsured for some time now. Luckily, moving around soft, fluffy, funny t-shirts hasn't resulted in any major injuries or sicknesses, but its always good to be insured.

I'm going to be a little more reckless now. So listen out for some good stories to come.

We received a great idea for a t-shirt the other day, so I wanted to post it on our blog today. It's a little too late in the political season for us to produce it, but I still wanted to give it a shout out on the blog.

Funny t-shirt text: "Joe the plumber can't touch these pipes."

Thanks Daniela.

My roommate, student doctor Edmond Ahdoot is no where to be found on google. Sure, Edmond Ahdoot, the original, and finest model for Crooked Monkey is on google. His Facebook profile is found, his article: "Studies of microsopic objects: The Micha Weinblatt chronicles" is oft-cited, and his other fine accomplishments can be researched. But what about Edmond as a doctor.

In light of our new series, Things you can't find on Google, I was a little disturbed to find out that student "Dr. Edmond Ahdoot" has yet to be discussed on google. Like always, our goal here is to give company to those lonely souls looking for the Dr. Anyone looking for student Dr. Edmond Ahdoot, will now have a home.

You'll now know that the doctor is an upstanding young gentelman, versed in Shakespear and dostoyesvky. Who DVRs a vast array of shows--from UFC championships to cooking shows. Who regularly leaves bonsues for his suite mates in the apartment--everything from chicken in the fridge to a deuce in the home office.

Well not really. But if you recall in my last post about the debates, I stated that I would not support a president unless he supported Funny T-shirts. In some, weird backhanded way, McCain gave a shout out to funny t-shirts around the world. And so Crooked Monkey is now throwing its support behind Presidential candidate John McCain.

He didn't really give us the thumbs up, but at least he recognized and acknowledged the hard work we've done to produce inapporiate t-shirts. McCain said "In fact, some T-shirts that are very...unacceptable." People have been saying that for years, and I'm glad McCain had the guts to bring it out in public. Sure he's not going to be liked for it, but at least hes bringing the real issues of this election to the forefront.

And as a representative of Crooked Monkey, am I mad that he called our shirts unacceptable? Not in the least. It was an honor and a privilege to hear him talk about t-shirts during a limited, 90 minute debate. Way to speak to the people!

With all the economic woes and worries, it looks like the Apocalypse could be coming. In the distance people see those guys on the horses bringing the end of days. I'll be writing more about the economy and how our funny t-shirts will be benefiting from this mass hysteria, but you'll have to wait for those insights.

I write about the Day of Judgement, not because of some messianic age, but because tonight begins the Jewish holiday of Yom Kippur. And while I will not be able to wear funny t-shirts to synagogue, I will be able to repent for my deeds and ask for foregiveness from my peers.

As a company, Crooked Monkey would like to apologize for any wrongdoings we've done to you, our valued customers. We really strive to have the best customer service in the world--we repsond to All emails almost immediately (I find it funny when you email a site and you get an automated response saying it will take 48 hours to respond). We bend over backwards to ensure that all customers of Crooked Monkey are happy with their transactions. If we are late on a shipment, we look to rectify it. The customer is always right with Crooked Monkey.

But if in the off chance that we have offended you we're sorry. And if our shirts have offended you, please recognize that we are a source of humor for people, not drama.

Have an easy and inspirational fast. And if you're not fasting, buy some funny t-shirts!

After three years of no mini-fridge, Crooked Monkey now has a home for its Gatorade bottles, Grey Goose handles, and pizza bagels.

It took this long because we were looking for just the right mini-fridge to fit in the office. Ben actually doubted that we would ever get a fridge, but I proved him wrong the other day when I surprised everyone with the mini-fridge and stocked it with the aforementioned goodies before anyone else got to work. And one-by-one each individual noticed the mini fridge, and offered their own unique reactions. Everything from high-fives, to bear hugs, to tears.

We're always looking to improve the experience for the Crooked Monkey team. It's not easy producing Funny T-shirts, and we want to show the C Monkey team that we appreciate everyone's hard work at creating the funniest t-shirts on the planet. And this mini fridge is just the beginning.

This is going to be a new series we're doing. It's called "Phrases you can't find on Google." There are over 1,000,000,000,000 pages on the internet, with over 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 phrases and even more words. I'm amazed that some phrases have just never been discussed on this internet that we have. So to honor those phrases, and to make sure that when someone searches those phrases they have company, we're doing this series. And by the time we're done, there wont be anything not on google.

So, I was talking with this girl the other day and she told me she'd give me a BJ if I voted for Obama. I told her she should create a site BJsforObama.com--because she's not the first girl who's uber excited about Barack obama. There are lots of panty droppers in the world--nice cars, nice houses, Crooked Monkey Funny t-shirts, and supporting Barak Obama.

To my surprise, BJsforObama.com does not yet exist. But even more amazing, is when you search "Bjs for obama" on google, it yields 0 results.

Well, we've changed that. Now when you search BJs for Obama you will find the only website bold enough to talk about the real issues this season. The only website not scared to bring you the real news stories. You heard it here first, ladies and gents. Crooked Monkey Funny t-shirts discusses "Bjs for Obama."

Crooked Monkey's teaming up with thezoi.com, the College Greek telephone directory. I met the founder and his team last year in Los Angeles. It was a good time and we talked about teaming up, because we both have the same audience.

After a year of preperation we're going to be doing some cool cross promotions. The first thing we'll be embarking on is advertising on his site.

Luckily, we had that hot steamy photoshoot over the summer. Bottles, Models, and wet t-shirts. Here's our first ad for thezoi.com, and it's really our first banner ad ever. I'm quite proud of it. Shout outs to Richard Greenhouse (the photographer), the one and only Laura (our longest standing model), and Kelly (the designer who brought it all together).

Hey Hey.

We just got an email from Toni, Holly Huddleston's stylist. She caught Holly wearing our girls I am Mclovin T-shirt. That's awesome. We love Sunset Tan--and Holly's probably our favorite character. Our intern Jessica watches it on the reg. She tells me that they just opened up a Sunset Tan in Vegas--looks like we'll be checking that out next time we're in Vegas.

Hip Hip Hooray for Celebrities wearing our funny t-shirts.
