I felt a little bad about hating everything about this and wasn't even going to comment, but it kind of looks like you aren't alone in your sentiment, based on how most of the top-level comments here range from "WTF" to "I hate this."

Staring at the site, I couldn't help but wonder what aspect I hated the most about it. Is it the awful name for the mascot? Is it the fact that they're obviously so proud of the PH/PHP "wordplay" that they overdo it? Is it the fact that I can't even tell what I'm supporting? Is it that they couldn't even be bothered to set up a payment system? Is it the fact that a guy made a mascot in 1998 and seems to be making a grossly misguided attempt to "cash in" 22 years later? Is it doing e-commerce via IM? Is it the massively overinflated sense of PHP's importance? Is it the obnoxious way he keeps thrusting his head forward for emphasis? Is it just that he ... likes PHP? (only about 50% joking on that last one) It's kind of a sum of all of the above for me. And that sounds really harsh, but I'm afraid it's the truth. This is a very hateable site.

At any rate, I doubt you're in serious downvote danger. :D
