Turtle shirts rock!

about Relative Speed

Sure, the joke isn't laugh-out-loud funny, but anyone who has seen a turtle knows its darn cute!

Get past the joke and appreciate the excellent design and colors, people! That turtle looks real! And that's the exciting part, heh.

Very cool. But way too low on the shirt for me. :-(

I want to marry the girl in on the in the pic. Sometimes I buy shirts I don't even like just because she's wearing them...does that make me a weirdo? Yes.

No. I do it too ...

Then it makes you both weird. :P

And yes, urgh, hate the placement.

Excellent stuff. Reminds me of one of my favourite sketches from Robot Chicken. Hence, I'll be buying this one!

I knew I'd seen the concept before. Robot Chicken. Real nice artwork though.

Despite the hot model, I won't be getting this one. This shirt has attracted a lot of criticism, mostly "it's been done". I don't think that's justifiable, but if I could offer some criticism from a design perspective (which I should have done when it was submitted but I never saw it) it would be that I don't think the tortoise should not be the one wearing goggles, it should be the snail. I mean, the tortoise is goign at its regular speed and it's the snail who's going (relatively) fast. It looks like the tortoise has been turbo charged or something.

Or am I not getting the joke?

maybe, but the snail looks like hes having a hell of a lot of fun!

I think it's a pretty good design, yes, I think the joke's been done but it looks pretty.

Having said that, turtles aren't actually that slow. They can move really quickly when they need to, but they're nature's amphibious tank, so they don't really need to go quickly.
