At 20th Century Nerds, we spend a lot of time sharing the happy moments, the successes, and the amazing things we create. But sometimes you just have to laugh at yourself!

After listening to feedback and doing some learning, we've decided to upgrade the material we use for our Bag Tags and Legacy Chains..... especially after finding out that many of you like to display them in your vehicles.

Soooo, we started working on an order for Amy Wynn and, of course, began with one of our favorite designs... Stitch!

I had everything set up to print overnight. When I woke up this morning, this is what I found...

🤣🤣🤣

I most definitely loaded the black and blue filament backwards!

To make it even better, we recently upgraded one of our printers to produce finer details, which means it takes a lot longer to complete prints. So after 19 hours of printing, I was greeted by this masterpiece of confusion.

But hey... Stitch is Experiment 626. He can change colors, right? 🤣

Running a small business isn't always sunshine, rainbows, and perfectly printed products. Sometimes it's laughing through the tears over a wasted 19-hour print. 😭😭

This little Stitch has officially earned a permanent place on my Wall of Shame.

For those who don't know, the Wall of Shame is where I hang all of my first drafts, test prints, and mistakes from Bag Tags and Legacy Chains. Not as a reminder of my failures, but as a reminder of how far we've come. Every mistake taught us something, every redesign made us better, and every lesson helped us grow.

So today we're sharing one of those lessons... and giving everyone a good laugh along the way! 😂

"Welcome to Our Perfect Chaos."

The truth is, it might be the most accurate description of our lives.
Between raising a family, running 20th Century Nerds, juggling events, printing through the night, making mistakes, fixing mistakes, and somehow still finding time to laugh along the way, our life is definitely chaos.
But it's our chaos.
It's late nights designing Legacy Chains. It's printer going off at 2 AM. It's orders stacked on the table, kids running through the house, and a wall covered in memories of projects, events, and people who mean something to us.
It's waking up to a 19-hour print and realizing you loaded the colors backwards. 😭🤣
It's celebrating the wins, learning from the mistakes, and remembering that every "oops" moment helped us get where we are today.
So yes, our sign says "Welcome to Our Perfect Chaos."
And honestly? We wouldn't have it any other way. 💜💚

💜 WOW... $2,000 DONATED! 💜

20CN is incredibly proud to announce that we were able to donate $2,000 to the fund supporting Ricky Stepka's family.

When we first launched the Slick Rick Memorial merchandise, our goal was simple: to raise $1,000 that could be added to the funds being raised during the tournament weekend. Thanks to the incredible support of this community, we didn't just reach that goal we doubled it.

Because of your support, 20CN was able to contribute a total of $2,000 to the funds raised at the event this past weekend.

At 20CN, we believe in being transparent about our fundraising efforts. When we ask our customers and community to support a cause, we believe you deserve to know the impact your purchases are making. That is why we are proud to share the specifics of this donation. Every order, every share, and every show of support helped make this possible. We believe transparency builds trust, and we are grateful for the trust you continue to place in our small business.

For a small home-based business from a small community, this is truly amazing. We are honored to have played a small part in supporting such an incredible cause and helping preserve Ricky's memory for his family, friends, teammates, and community.

We have received a lot of questions about whether memorial items will remain available for purchase.

📢 IMPORTANT ORDERING UPDATE:
⚾ Memorial Jersey orders will close at MIDNIGHT on Friday, June 19, 2026.

All other Slick Rick Memorial items will remain available for ordering. However, these items will be made-to-order and will not be kept as regular stock inventory.

We have also received several requests for a Stepka Memorial Trailer Hitch Cover, and we're excited to share that it is currently in the works! Stay tuned for updates.

20CN will continue to be a proud supporter of the Slick Rick Memorial Tournament, and we look forward to watching it grow and seeing the impact it has in the years to come.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for believing in 20CN to create these memorial pieces that help honor and remember Ricky's legacy. Thank you for every order, every share, every kind word, and every show of support. This achievement belongs to all of us.

💜 Together, we turned a goal of $1,000 into a $2,000 donation and helped ensure Ricky's legacy continues to make an impact.

Thank you for helping us keep Ricky's memory alive.
