We want to send you a little care package, as a token of our appreciation for being awesome and making this site the success it has become! Inside this little box, you'll find:

T-SHIRTS!!!!!!!

STICKERS!

STICKERS!!!!!!!

AN AWESOME RUBBER DUCK!

A RUBBER DUCK!!!!!!! ZOMG!!!!!!!

I'll be reaching out to you at some point this week: be sure to fill out the form as soon as you're able to do so! You'll have two weeks to do so, after which, I'll close it and take care of sending all of these wonderful items your way! I'm not gonna offer a precise prediction It'll take precisely between 42 and 56 days for these to arrive at your doorstep.

If you're not on the list, don't worry too much about it — we've got some extra swag stored we can send to you for events and such.

Thanks to all of you for making this site awesome!

    \$\begingroup\$ Question about the duck: is it actually rubber, or is it one of those fake-rubber ones? \$\endgroup\$

    \$\begingroup\$ Please note that the concept of first two pages of this page is not as precise as one would like it to be. On the non-mobile website, it goes up to EBrown (with 5355); on the mobile website (and on the mobile app), it goes up to jonrsharpe (10.1k). \$\endgroup\$

I don't want to seem ungrateful in any way, but would it be possible to have a choice between a Code Review mug and the Code Review Rubber Duck? It could be an option on the form we fill out for example.

I just see myself using a mug more than a rubber duck, and I don't have kids to give it to.

    \$\begingroup\$ Many have already filled out the form, it's too late to choose - just send us a mug anyway! \$\endgroup\$

    \$\begingroup\$ No, sorry :\ Most sites only get two swag items, and for those that get a third item, the third one is supposed to be really special and not something that would make sense regardless of the logo that's stamped on it — hence, the duck :) \$\endgroup\$

\$\begingroup\$

Are the stickers going to be washable, that is, if I put a sticker on my mug, then put the mug in the dishwasher, will the sticker get damaged?

If I slap a sticker on my Tesla (I don't have one, but you seem to suggest you can slap one on there with the image), and it rains, does the sticker get damaged? Can I drive my car with stickers through the carwash?

    \$\begingroup\$ Can I drive my car with stickers through the carwash? Sorry, no because you can only stick them on a Tesla as it is clearly shown and you don't have one. \$\endgroup\$

    \$\begingroup\$ The stickers are printed on vinyl and laminated so they should hold up pretty well. That being said, I would not recommend putting them in the dishwasher. The stickers are also removable/repositionable, so my guess is they have the potential to come off during a car wash/dishwash. \$\endgroup\$
