BoxedTofu

Oops, I think I’m supposed to write more about my personal life. Long walks on the beach…my favorite hot rods…what I think of Tom Cruise today…you know, stuff like that.

Here’s what I did yesterday:

Went to the T-shirt Making Store: I’m working on trying to figure out how to make t-shirts so I can sell them on Tofugu. I might make a couple of BoxedTofu ones as well. I’m a big fan of the Tofu Mime that’s everywhere on this website. Very simple and only one color, which means it’ll be a cheap tshirt to make. Man, you have no idea how expensive these things are. They tend to get you on the set-up fees. For two colors and only one design in one spot, it costs almost $100 to set up. Luckily after that, it’s very affordable. One of the tshirts I wanted to do would have cost $350 to set up. I’m going to have to reconsider that one. Here are three of the potential designs, with more on the way. I’ll probably do a poll on Tofugu to see which ones might be the most popular, and act from there. Still, I’ve got more revising and designing to do. Here’s what I’ve got so far:

I also get to play around with the idea of having different colored t-shirts besides white/black for the same cost. I need to go back to the store and see what colors they have.

Tell me, how much would you pay for a tshirt? Would you pay $20? (more…)

My roommates and I often ask each other hard-hitting “would you rather” questions, most of which are too inappropriate to talk about here. Today, we had a question that I thought would be interesting to ask all of you. That question is, of course, the same one as the title, “Would you rather eat a dog or a cat?” That’s an easy question for me. I’ve already thought about this. You can find out my answer by clicking through and checking out the video. (more…)

First off, welcome to BoxedTofu. I’m using this domain as a place to do all my “personal” blogging. It feels like I’ve finally come full circle. I remember back in the days when everyone was doing personal blogs, then people transitioned to topic-based blogs, and now, here I am again, doing a personal blog. It should be fun, though. I’ve got a folder full of things I’ve wanted to write about, but never could, so that’s what BoxedTofu will be for.

I thought I’d use this opportunity to tell you five facts about myself. I was technically supposed to do this several months ago, when I got tagged on Youtube. Both of my channels were tagged several times, but I never got around to doing it. It seems like the perfect introduction to a personal blog, so here, without further adieu, are my five facts. (more…)
