I used to be an abused Internet cliche...
What is The Daily Quaker!? It's an experiment in online entrepreneurship and an homage to one of the funniest Internet memes in recent memory, the HA! HA! Guy. It's the only place where you can get your hands on a genuine, world famous, HA! HA! Guy Whiteboard. It's a blog with daily postings of bad jokes written on HA! HA! Guy Whiteboards.
Why make HA! HA! Guy Whiteboards? To us it was an obvious extension of the infamous HA! HA! Guy made famous by Hetemeel: take a blank template of the HA! HA! Guy, write something sarcastic/truthful/exasperated under it, share with your friends, LOL. Why should the HA! HA! Guy be shackled to the electronic world?
Where can I get a HA! HA! Guy Whiteboard? HA! HA! Guy Whiteboards are available exclusively on The Daily Quaker!.
When did you guys start selling these puppies? We first joked about HA! HA! Whiteboards during the first Great Grey Wave on Fark in July of 2005. When, on the anniversary of the Grey Wave the HA! HA! Guy struck on Fark again we decided to take action. We launched the Tri-Corner Humor Web Shoppe in January of 2007. After paying way too much for hosting, we reevaluated how we went about selling these guys and after taking a different marketing stance, reopened as The Daily Quaker! with a new blog format in August of 2007.
We'll be closing down shop in late 2008.
Who is running the show here? Until recently, the entity known as Tri-Cornered Humor, LLC. We let the Limited Liability status expire and now it's just a few individuals. Michael runs the website and answers most of the email. Jim ships the 'boards and takes care of finances. Lars consults on various subjects such as marketing, business, and Internet sub-culture.

About the HA! HA! Guy Whiteboard
Originally used in the late 1800's to advertise Forbes' Photographic Dry Plates, the HA! HA! Guy has since become a blockbuster Internet phenomenon.
For the first time since the nineteenth century, the HA! HA! Guy is available in physical form embodied as the future of door enhancements. The HA! HA! Whiteboard brings all the wit and sarcasm the HA! HA! Guy is famous for to your dorm, office, or cube!
We promise that this will be the best online whiteboard impulse buy you will ever make!

I really enjoy the Ha! Ha! Guy! Why are you shutting down??
The Daily Quaker! will still be here for a while. We're all splitting paths and are ready to try new ventures, thus the whiteboard portion of the website will be permanently on hold.
As far as daily posts go, I'm just taking a break for a little while, resting up my funny bone.
