The winter has long past, and the sun is currently teasing the shit out of our pale, sallow skin. But we’re close! So, so, very close. To long days and glorious sun 🙂 This month we traveled to the windy city and sold our wares at C2E2 in the Writer’s Block section of one of the baddest-ass comic cons in the country (see picture :)). We met kind, amazing, enthusiastic folk from all over the world, and laughed our bums off while sharing our books, greeting cards, shirts, hats, stickers and our brand new card game, Are You In? (The disturbingly hilarious game clinically proven to determine whether or not you and your partner are truly meant to be). The …

Happy holidays, and happy wracking your brain for the perfect gift 🙂 This year we have several new products as well as multiple purchasing options for your convenience. We are currently in the process up updating our website to include all of our books, shirts, and stickers, but in the mean time you can find all of our products and more at our Amazon Storefront. Also, thank you for the overwhelming support and wonderful reviews. Because of you, we are able to continue creating these crazy products, which we so much love to do. Happy holidays, enjoy your friends and family, and deck the halls with balls! Matt

The first ever Chronic Con is being held this weekend in Chicago. We are more than honored be a part of this epic event as a vender selling Balls! (and more :)). If you have a chance to attend, be sure to stop by and say hello! “In a world gone mad, we will not spank the monkey, but the monkey will spank us.” – Jay www.chronicconforreal.com

Fine humans and those a bit off the path, Last weekend was amazeballs! For our first ever Comic Con we had the privilege of hosting a table at Astronomicon in Livonia Michigan, and we couldn’t have had a better time. The venue was amazing, the people kind, energetic, and and wildly dressed, and all the bumps and bruises that come with all “first times” were alleviated by the wonderful crew at State of Comics who were kind enough to let us join them at the show. By the end of the weekend we were thoroughly exhausted but also giddy with anticipation, for next week we are headed to C2E2 in Chicago and this time with a wee bit of experience …

Winter is upon us! For those that live in warm climates, I have nothing nice to say on the topic. But, for those of us that are forced to endure scraping ice of car windows, shoveling multiple feet of snow, and shivering in a body full of frozen bones, sweet relief is on the horizon! One hand-warming reprieve comes in the form of Comic Cons! Between now and mid-summer there are amazing weekend long Comic Con shows popping up all across the country, and we are doing are darnedest to secure tables and participate in as many as we possibly can. Applications are in, and we’ll keep you posted on dates and locations as they come. And of course, should …

We hope everyone one has a wonderful, spooky Hallows Eve, dresses up in costume awesomeness (no matter what your age), and uses all the festive energy to smile, laugh, and be kind. Because boy howdy, we could use some extra love and kindness right about now … it’s been a rough couple of months. Happy Halloween! Happy October! Happy Fall! Matt

I think it’s safe to say that strange days are upon us. Politics be crazy, the weather apocalyptic, and AI is inviting itself into our reality. I’m pretty sure most people are walking around with their overall disposition set to ‘fear-mode’, and I’m certainly not judging; if you squint just the right way, it all kind of makes sense. I heard a story today about how a long time ago one of the supposed first english speaking blokes landed on Australia. They met some locals, exchanged pleasantries, when suddenly a large animal with a baby in it’s pouch came hopping out of the brush. “What the F#$k is that?!” the english speaking bloke exclaimed. “Kangaroo,” replied the local. And so, …

Spring is upon us, which means Hard-Boiled-Egg-Scavenger-Hunt Day is here as well, and we at BumBumBooks would like to suggest introducing some balls into this year’s Easter festivities. But what about the eggs you ask? No worries! You can continue hiding your decorated chicken fair, AND, at the same time, throw in the hilarity of balls! All you need is a copy of Do You Want To Play With My Balls?, as well as the much anticipated sequel Do You Want To Play With My Box?, and your backyard will be filled with so much joy, even the bunnies will be laughing 🙂 Happy spring!

The Green day of drunkenness is nearly upon us, where American’s scour their genealogy for the smallest percentage of Irish decent, don their Notre Dame shirts and plastic clover hats, and carefully craft an excuse for taking off work in preparation of an epic hangover. What more does one possibly need? Laugher. Straight up, pun-filled, hilarity that will make you king of the pub. And, with our books in hand, you can peacefully reign over a belly-laughing, drunken kingdom of cosplay leprechauns cheering your name! So, get your copies of the most festive books know to man/womankind, be safe, and have a wonderful St. Paddy’s day! Matt
