Keep Calm and Carry On, My Wayward Son

Last Friday, I posted a round-up of horrible versions of the Keep Calm and Carry On poster, currently infecting Etsy.

I happened to look in the comments for that post last night, and found a shitload of new versions left by the Regretsy elves..

Here are some of my favorites.

Carry on.

        Of course! I was also kind enough to provide him with an excuse for why he has a black eye. He is to tell people that he ‘accidentally’ ran into the door knob. O_o

    Apropos of nothing, but I once lived with a truly terrible roommate whose ring tone was “Carry on my Wayward Son”. Now, the reasons she was a shitty roommate ranged from the mundane (never picked up after herself) to the gross (vile farts all night) to the absolute batshit (conflict resolution was carried out through threatening tweets). Now, the reason her ring tone holds a special place in my blackened heart is because she used her cellphone as an alarm clock. She could also sleep through anything. So every morning I got to hear a bad midi of the chorus to “Carry on My Wayward Son” over and over and over again until she woke up and shut it off, usually an hour later. Any mention of that Kansas song instantly brings me back to that hellhole of an apartment.

    So thank you, Regretsy, for making my day that much more whimsicle.

      It’s in reality not that terribly hard to do (and not that expensive). Go to Michaels (or wherever fabric paint is sold), buy whatever color you want, along with stencil adhesive and find stencils in whatever font you want. Wash and dry hoodie (usually without fabric softner), apply stencil adhesive to stencils, then apply stencils to hoodie, and spray the fabric paint on and *voila* your own personalized “Keep Calm and Carrion” hoodie.
      The only drawback? You now have a can of stencil adhesive, and a can of fabric paint. It might actually cost you less than having someone do it for you and then having it shipped to you.

        You don’t even have to go to that much trouble. Avery makes transfer paper for both light and dark fabric colors (I know this because I sell it at my store). Print out on home printer and iron on!

    That sign will never die! I’ve been selling various ‘Keep Calm’ parodies at craft shows for a couple years now. I never put them up in my Etsy shop though because there are just too fucking many variations sold there so I didn’t bother. It’s pretty funny to see how many people have come up with the “carrion” version (the first one I did was a carrion beetle, people didn’t get it =/
    Here are some that I’ve made in the past. Long live irreverence! (And yea, I’m a big HP nerd)
