Randy Monteith, 4 months ago

To answer your questions in the Graph

Question 1

What makes people buy plasticine?

My wife bought some today for your 4 year ! He loves playing with it

Question 2

Why can’t we get off the internets?

Well first of all there is no such thing as ” Internets ” its not a plural word. Its INTERNET. The reason we can’t get off them is because that would be like saying why do we need to breath air. To much email , things to look up, and too many great artists on RB!!

Question 3

Why do kids draw on walls?

Cause they’re there! Well my little guy did draw on his keyboard with a marker but one of those MR Clean Magic Eraser sponges is a miracle worker! It made it disapear!!!

More importantly congrats on 50,000 members!!!!!

Darlene, 4 months ago

Woooohoooo! I’d be curious to know how many pieces of work that amounted to at that time too.

Joanne Bradley, 4 months ago

Congratulations Redbubble! And a great creative original graph as well! Wish they had some of those at the meetings I have attended! :-)

Larry149, 4 months ago

There’s a slight problem . . . . In your drawing. Are you looking closely??
You see the 4th tiny little blue box down from the top?? Well, the red line from it should go up not down…..

Congratulations on achieving the 50,000!

DuncanW, 4 months ago

(1) It’s not clear whether ‘Plasticine’ includes Play-Doh and cheap supermarket white bread. If not, then your results will be skewed.
(2) Please show your working.
(3) No allowance has been made for alcohol … I’d recommend 2 large malt whiskies per night.

Jeffrey S. Rease, 4 months ago

Now, can I get that graph on a t-shirt? :-)

urraca Fitten, 4 months ago

I noticed a lot of Red Bubble members are also professionals and use the platform as a stepping stone for their work. One of the things Red Bubble could do to help hobbyists, students and other people passionate about their work is to let them create Red Bubble T-shirts where their (our) name will appear as “created by” for example. I would do it without getting a percentage on it since I’d get the free advertisment, but I’m not sure if it’s fair for everybody.

Kelly KMA Berm..., 4 months ago

To clarify – WA had our long weekend last monday – the rest of Australia are today – I did attempt to do a graph as to why as a country we celebrate Labour Day on different days…...but… stuff it – couldnt compete with yours :) Congratulations – RB Rocks!! Kelly

Dawn Jarvi, 4 months ago

Congrats RB! Thanks for the graph….it helped me understand so much better!
Good to know there are people out there with a sense of humor and plasticine.
....Why do kids draw on walls though? We encourage them to draw, then they make a beautiful pice of artwork for you…right on your living room wall for everyone to see, and we yell at them for it….poor things must be so confused….and then we happen and join RB!
Proud to be a part of it!

meanderthal, 4 months ago

nakomis, 4 months ago

Congratulations!! i am assuming by the graph that people play with plasticine and draw on walls introduce peoples Internet addiction.. far too much caffeine and there you have it!

RedBubble in reply to Jan Piller’s comment, 4 months ago

We made is as clear as possible Jan. Try looking at the graph while standing up, that can help.

RedBubble in reply to Robert Elliott’s comment, 4 months ago

Yes, tricky one that. Have a glass of milk and give it another go.

RedBubble in reply to Randy Monteith’s comment, 4 months ago

We felt the graph admirably answered all these questions anyway. Especially the need for a pluralisation of the Internets.
But your admirable advice on Mr Clean Magic Erasers may cause a restructure of the third parameter.
Thank you.

RedBubble in reply to Russell Fry’s comment, 4 months ago

Don’t worry. I’ve never worked for the Government and it makes perfect sense to me too.
It can also be used to convince your offspring that television is evil.

RedBubble in reply to trennea’s comment, 4 months ago

I’m not mad.
I can’t speak for every one else, even if I often do, but I am suspicious.
