I'd say something like "this wins the internets" but I seem to recall that this meme is from back when we still only had the one internet, and win was still a pretty scarce commodity. One didn't just freely build things out of it, like you see nowadays. Good ol Moore's Law.
someone has GOT to sneak this stamp into every government office.
I had boss who had quite a collection of rubber stamps, so I had one made for her that said, "Find him and kill him," à la Top Secret.
I've got a rubber stamp that a fan made for me that reads, "To ____________, my one, my only, my sole inspiration without whom this could never have been written. Your pal, Cory." It's for signing books -- I don't use it often, but everyone I've used it with has really liked it!

Dare I send this URL to friends?
Actually, I'd like to see that.

A little off topic, but when I was a kid I saw a book at the grocery store whose dedication read, "This book is dedicated to me, without whom it would not have been possible."
I dunno..."All your base" is too young for nostalgia and too old to be cool.
Is there a postal service that can track me down and deliver me this thing in about 5 years?
That sounds like the very definition of being in one's thirties. Lessee, then, if the meme emerged seven years ago...
That's it! 7 Internet Years = 30 Human Years!

Too bad they mispelled "yuor".
Sheesh! Sold out! I still want one. And anyone who can find one for me gets a guarantee: I promise to bring it into a government office. For reals.
Old meme.
Older medium.
I think this needs to explored further. Woodcut Goatse perhaps? Dramatic Rodent Zoetrope?

...Sorry if this is a double post. My first try didn't seem to take.
Since it is already sold out, this would be a good time to learn how to make stamps (it isn't hard)!
I think a 'pwned' rubber stamp is way cooler.
shouldn't "pwned" be on a branding iron?
this would be far more useful if it just had a blank instead of base so you could write in (much like Cory's) whatever you wanted
Thanks for the feature!
since I make these, I don't sell out, I just keep making more. I do have a listing in my store, but I can also set up a listing for anyone!
also, if you prefer to have a blank instead, just send me an e-mail, and I can make a custom stamp for you. after all, custom stamps are my specialty!

Wow -- if you could travel back in time with these to 2002 or so, you could make a mint!
On the other hand, if you could travel back in time, invest some money in winning lottery tickets.
I keep getting messages for more of this stamp, here is a multiple listing:

Just noticed this - I know of a similar place for PWN3D! stamps in unlimited quantity and with self ink models.
I found it at http://www.simplystamps.com/PWN3D_Stamp-details.aspx and they ship out next day.
This will be perfect when I'm teaching...
