Currently, I’m torn. College Football vs. the NFL. Both seasons had a lackluster start, no statistical explosions from top fantasy football picks in the NFL and the marquee match-ups on national TV for college football haven’t panned out (OSU vs. USC anyone?). With only two top 25 match-ups on the docket for tomorrow, it might be another uneventful day of college football.
However, I would like to go back a week. If you caught the first quarter of the Washington Huskies game versus the Oklahoma Sooners before switching over to OSU/USC, you witnessed a 13-0 margin built by the Sooners. Not bad. But it got worse. 34-0 at halftime worse. And 55-14 final worse. Now, I don’t want to rip on the Huskies too much - they were a banged up and young team - I didn’t expect them to beat the No. 3 team in the country. I would expect them to have a little common sense about the game though.
Evidently not, judging by this shirt and the decision making abilities of someone at the university’s athletic apparel department. Yes, the “Defend Your House!” shirt made specifically for the UW/OU game last week is still on sale. For the low price of $19.99 you can remember this game forever, buy them here. It’s essentially like investing in the Nader/Gonzalez ‘08 campaign, I’m sure they make shirts for that pending failure too.
If I was a oppomistic UW fan and bought this shirt before last week’s game, I would have partaken in a ceremonial burning the moment I left the stadium. And yes, that would have been at halftime. UW is enjoying a bye week, but will take their frustrations out on Stanford next week - down with the Cardinal!
These shirts aren’t quite as cool as these Chuck Norris action jeans but sometimes you have to take what you can get. This might have to be a Tasty Booze t-shirt original but if someone made one that said “Superman has a pair of Chuck Norris pajamas” I would buy that shit in an instant.

The Price is Right for boobs. This video might have worked a little better with the background music being Sarah Connor’s “Bounce,” but what can you do.
I come across funny shirts on the internet all the time but there are few that I would actually consider purchasing. I think I am going to have to make an exception for the rare cab shirt. If your 90’s sitcom theme song lyrics are a little rusty I have included some below to help jog your memory.
I whistled for a cab and when it came near the
License plate said “fresh” and had a dice in the mirror
If anything I could say that this cab was rare
But I thought now forget it, yo home to bel-air
I pulled up to a house about seven or eight
And I yelled to the cabby “yo, home smell you later”
Looked at my kingdom I was finally there
To settle my throne as the prince of bel-air
Apparently CNN is so proud of their clever headlines in the Latest News section of their homepage they have decided to make them available on t-shirts. So now when you go to CNN.com and see a zinger of a headline like Waste food dished up to hungry diners or Prince drops copter in galpal’s yard you can waste $15 and immortalize it on a t-shirt.
Okay, you are right, the above headline never actually appeared on CNN. However, by making a slight modification to the URL for the t-shirt site you can make the shirt pretty much say whatever you want. There is a character limit so you have to make it fit on the two lines and the site won’t let you actually order the shirt but it is fun way to dick around at work. I had a little spare time this morning so I made a few shirts.
If you are looking for some kick ass 80’s throw back t-shirts then Rocksmith has got you covered. I don’t know if I could rock any of these myself but the Kid & Play shirt definitely made me laugh out loud at my desk. Rocksmith describes themselves as:
Rocksmith Tokyo is Japanese street couture blendid with New York City swagger. The ultimate Mixtape of classic and futuristic cuts, fabrics, Music styles and attitude
That description alone is cool enough to make me want to buy one of their shirts. I am not familar with “Japanese street couture” but it would appear that it means making brightly colored shirts featuring hip-hop stars from the late 80’s and early 90’s.
For some reason the internet phenomena 2 girls 1 cup won’t die despite the fact that is probably hands down the most disgusting thing on the WWW. In case you want to commemorate your viewing experience you can pick up this t-shirt over at totallycrap.com.
I think this shirt should say “Enjoy your shit sundae!”
Two Salina Central High School seniors designed T-shirts to raise money for breast cancer awareness, but an assistant principal banned one of the designs from school.
Haley Wenthe’s mother died from breast cancer five years ago, and Jessica Sheahon’s mom recently completed chemotherapy. So they set out to raise $10,000 during October, which is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
The shirts bear the phrase “Save 2nd Base” with a pair of baseballs over the wearers’ breasts. Officials said the shirts violate the district’s dress code, which bans clothing with an “implied indecent meaning.”
Can anyone explain what is indecent about that shirt? Is it because the two baseballs are cleverly located in the chest region of the shirt? If a dude wore that shirt to school I would almost guarantee it doesn’t get banned. This kind of shit really pisses me off. Here are two kids taking initiative to raise money for a great cause and some uptight asshole AP puts the kibosh on it.
Climb on down from your high horse Linn Exline and let these kids have fun and raise money for a great cause.
It is no secret that these online t-shirt making establishments have been popping up all over the place. You actually can’t go to a website targeted at the under-30 demographic these days without seeing adds for one or the other (including your favorite Tastybooze.com and the Snorg Tees add to my right). And I have to say, there is a simplistic brilliance to these operations that makes me wish I had my own t-shirt site. I suppose I could make one though, as I am pretty sure I have cracked the code:
1) Find funny movie or TV show and steal hilarious commentary and pics without having to pay any royalties
2) Stick said commentary or picture on t-shirt for a mass production cost of about $2-3 a shirt
3) Set up an affiliate marketing campaign that pays for click-through-to-buys only at no up front cost
4) Put pretty girls in your t-shirts and spam the world
5) Sell for $20, i.e. 1000% profit
But then again, some of them are pretty cool and worth the cash. In fact, in almost all cases they are good conversation pieces for whatever you may need them for. Be the envy of your friends, have the opposite sex seek you out at bars, embarrass your parents, etc.
