WE’RE DEEP UP INTO THE HOLIDAY SEASON, RIGHT?: Sure we are. And in true DDC fashion, we’re late to the game some, and always putting stress on shipping times, shopping decisions and whatever other half-ass shit we generate due to our loose ways. Sorry. Invoice us.

Here’s a collection of “shit we love” and want you to consider for you holiday shopping needs. Like anyone else, I’m susceptible to that “bah hum bug” thing during the holi-daze season. But man, it’s nice to give a cool give to someone you love, fancy, work with or need to mend some bad tidings with. Here’s a big pile of bullshit that just might do the trick, and bring the world a little closer together.

Or hell, just load up on shit for yerself, and screw the rest. You pick the way you want to do it, America! Get dirty with some of the stuff on this list. Act now so that shit can get shipped by Christmas Day. Then you can listen to Red Fang’s new “Whales and Leeches” record while scribbling shit down in some new Field Notes, sipping some warm bullshit out of a nice Heart mug. Sounds good, right? It does.

Get that warm feeling with some purchases. Kickstart the economy. See, now this shit is for America. Don’t let yer country down, citizens. Something like that.

Happy Holi-daze from the fuckin’ DDC!
