"Krampus is a beast-like creature from the folklore of Alpine countries thought to punish children during the Yule season who had misbehaved, in contrast with Saint Nicholas, who rewards well-behaved ones with gifts. Krampus is said to capture particularly naughty children in his sack and carry them away to his lair.

Krampus is represented as a beast-like creature, generally demonic in appearance. The creature has roots in Germanic folklore; however, its influence has spread far beyond German borders. Traditionally young men dress up as the Krampus in Austria, southern Bavaria, South Tyrol, northern Friuli, Hungary, Slovenia, the Czech Republic, the Slovak Republic and Croatia during the first week of December, particularly on the evening of 5 December (the eve of Saint Nicholas day on many church calendars), and roam the streets frightening children with rusty chains and bells. Krampus is featured on holiday greeting cards called Krampuskarten. There are many names for Krampus, as well as many regional variations in portrayal and celebration."

Special nod to “A Christmas Story” here as well as the lore of the krampus

Is that why no one is buying?

I heard a rumor that I just started that everyone who buys one of these shirts will be surprised with a barrel of clams.

I’m trying not to give a smart answer about percentages and supply or whatever.

This shirt is fantastic, I must say.

You should have started that rumor 23 hours ago.

I bet you’re right. The bar isn’t moving altho purchases are being made. It started with a Krampus and will end with a Krampus.

Xmas needs more Krampus and less Santa.

so what you’re saying is that I should stop obsessing over the refresh key, since there isn’t a BOC to be had around here. (Not that the only 2 BOCs I have gotten weren’t total shite anyway…)

I’m 0 for 69, thank you. And I was awake until about 2 AM, last night, then up again at about 8. I did have to work, this afternoon, but I was kind of following things, from work.

The only thing I bought, today, was a Edifier MP250 Sound to Go - Portable USB Powered Soundbar and I used my $5 coupon that I received from the botched order on Friday.
