After submitting my 'sharks on a train would've been twice as deadly' slogan, I wanted to see if I was the first person to think of such a concept. Turns out that's a no. Lots of riffs out there on the snakes on a plane concept, usually proposed as potential sequels or parts of a trilogy.

Some I ran into:
tigers on a boat
spiders on a bus
and
sharks on a train

I think the last one is the best and it seems to be one of the more prevalent(20 or so google results) (what with rhyming and the same starting letter as well as rediculousness factor). It's even a registered domain, though i just get 'problem loading page' when I try to go there.

Great minds think alike.

I thought of "spiders in a bathtub" when I was getting ready to take a bath today.
Betcha can't figure out why.

there was a fly in your bathtub, so you thought "i sure wish there was a spider in the bathtub to eat that fly" then you were like "hey! spider in a bathtub!"

Man, that sucks. There's nothing more embarassing than giving an air high five to someone hundreds of miles away and not having them return it.

Nothing upsets me more than finding my bathtub drain full of cakes.

----------------------------------------

Best Ever quotes about my amazazing work (the first one is my all time favorite):

-Um, yeah. That's not funny. That really happened. Someone's child was EATEN. It was horrid enough that someone made some sort of a sick joke to laugh in the face of mourning parents, but hey "Lets make a shirt to commemorate the whole bloody thing again!"

-Technically a Plesiosaurus could not bend its neck that way.

-No one would wear that......I think.

-That's (a) terrible (idea).

-It looks like a super generic shirt you can find being sold in the parking lot of a Shriner's club.

-What the hell?

-boo

-banksy ripoff?

-This is traced. Poorly.

-is there any possible way to give this LESS than 0?

-i don't really like this at all. but that's just me.

-Cowboys are just plain bad.

-clay aiken

-its been done before, and its been done a lot better

-if you couldnt make the temple of doom shirt work, you should have just stopped. sorry, but this is terrible....the rest of your is much better

-To Kiddish looking.

-Terrible

-a little too easy.

-I hereby join the podium-hating club. It makes it look like they're standing in front of a rectangular tree.

-the idea is nice, but the illustration is... not so nice.

-i just don't really like it..

-the y coordinate of the graph is not labeled, making it meaningless

-dork shirt

-this tries too hard to be clever...

-Politics don't belong on threadless.

----------------------------------------

hot damn, i'm a winner.

at least no one can talk trash about my slogans.
