**** Ampersand

Well we all knew the time would come eventually.

When I initially created this blog I didn’t imagine flogging the Shit& horse for more than one hearty-chuckle-filled hour, let alone several months. Thanks to all you visitors and commentators who made this blog great. We had fun while it lasted but alas I think the joke is getting old now, so before we offend someone (I know ha!) it’s about time to bow out peacefully.

A special thanks to all you type designers for taking it on the chin!

If you’d like to be among the first on our next bandwagon, follow us on twitter @dbushell, @dsgnheroes and @lovedsgn and wait for something special to happen, I guess.

Adios.

Hey guys!

We’re back for another eye gouging foray into the just splendid world of Shit Ampersands™. (And people wonder why I haven’t posted in a while.)

While you soak in the blood of this freshly butchered abomination I’d like to invite the more typographically discerning folk among you to “av a butchers” at our new project LoveDsgn (@lovedsgn), it’s going to be magical…

Now keep it real people, and keep those ampersands SHIT. It makes my life a whole lot easier.

Yes I know what you’re all thinking.

Sick bastards.

Bloody hell!

Shit myself when I saw this.

The designer probably shit his socks too drawing it.

Ok, enough shit, for now.

Cute?

Not a word in my language. Shit is though, which is handy. This one has all the merits of a 7 year old’s drawing (i.e. none) but it’ll probably be pinned on a fridge somewhere. That’s why there is so much bad design out there, people just can’t say “that fucking sucks” when required.

Aaaaaannnyway, we got featured in the IDSGN monthly review which is a bloody surprise to be honest. Editing standards must be slipping.

Umm, what?

Shit ampersand that’s what. (for Wednesday – the middle day.)

It’s Tuesday, it’s 7 O’Clock, it’s time for the daily SHIT ampersand.

LOOK AT IT, IS THAT SHIT ENOUGH FOR YOU?
