WTF?

about I'd give my left arm to play...

They seriously took this shirt off of the site because it was too offensive towards Def Leppard?
I ordered it a few days ago, does this mean it will be taken out of my order?

whylime on Sep 22 '06 at 8:30pm

well that is interesting

iPear on Sep 22 '06 at 8:30pm

I still don't get it.

>>

abeadle on Sep 22 '06 at 8:32pm

I wonder if the band contacted them

OlliRudi on Sep 22 '06 at 8:40pm

probably.

apocalypse...okaythen on Sep 22 '06 at 8:45pm

mehe.

Moral lesson: cruel jokes, whether you see them as a joke, is still cruel.

ziggy1283 on Sep 22 '06 at 8:55pm

And yet the Canada shirt is allowed to stay? Nice priorities.

whylime on Sep 22 '06 at 8:56pm

im not sure i follow your logic ziggy

Spantizzle on Sep 22 '06 at 9:07pm

For those who dont "get it", Rick Allen, the drummer for Def Leppard lost his arm, and continued drumming

abeadle on Sep 23 '06 at 8:16am

highly collectible

She Says So on Sep 23 '06 at 8:23am

maybe they'll have a give away or something.

kaloyster on Sep 23 '06 at 8:40am

I think he lost his arm on a plane accident or something. It's harsh that people find it funny.

skyash1588 on Sep 23 '06 at 8:41am

im sure some people read that and thought it was making fun of rick allen, and thats not very nice.

broken.yoke on Sep 23 '06 at 8:49am

OHHH...

Thas so funnny

Ste7en on Sep 23 '06 at 8:54am

first of all, the truth is...they probably couldnt have a shirt with the band name on their shirts for sale...so they took it down "out of respect"

kaloyster on Sep 23 '06 at 9:07am

I'm curious though: If they took it down, how come you can still order it thru the Stockchart section and still reflect on your order upon checkout?

Spantizzle on Sep 23 '06 at 10:47am

yeah, I saw that, and the shirt was still in my order when I tracked it. btw, it was a car crash

jacob dehart on Sep 23 '06 at 11:20am

Def Leppard called us! They were really sad that we had it for sale so we told them we would take it down. I guess I didn't take it off the stock chart page yet, I'll do that on Monday. So that means you have 2 days to buy this highly collectible shirt!

bananaphone on Sep 23 '06 at 11:23am

Def leppard are a bunch of fucking pussies, for lack of a better term.

This isn't insulting the band or the drummer, this tshirt if anything promotes the band as awesome enough to lose your arm for, and it starts conversation about how awesome their drummer is to be doing it with the added disability.

staffell on Sep 23 '06 at 11:25am

so we have two days huh? I might buy it for collectable value

realslimnatey on Sep 23 '06 at 11:27am

DONE!

just ordered one...

now im wondering if i should order one in each size

bananaphone on Sep 23 '06 at 11:32am

Also the environmental impact of rendering around 800 tshirts is pretty significant, given how much water goes into producing the cotton that's used by them all. I guess Loom and AA made THEIR money but still. Going to be a bit of a loss for threadless to cop and a huge waste of resources that could have been better used, just because a band that supposedly rocks wants to be all wussy about it.

spacesick on Sep 23 '06 at 11:32am

ahaha

emmy.withwings on Sep 23 '06 at 11:49am

i wonder if my dad would notice if i added another $14 onto yesterdays order...

Spantizzle on Sep 23 '06 at 12:17pm

lol Def Leppard actually called you guys? that's awesome. I am now the proud owner of a collectable shirt. swee33et

fourengland on Sep 23 '06 at 1:05pm

thats sucks, i thought it was funny

anotherdeadpoet on Sep 24 '06 at 12:13am

bananaphone, you are amazing and I agree with you on both statements.

crisco disco on Sep 24 '06 at 1:32pm

damn. that's fucked up.

crisco disco on Sep 24 '06 at 1:33pm

hah. i haven't gotten my $100 cash for this yet...i wonder if i'll still get that.

lemonalle on Sep 24 '06 at 1:35pm

But you did make Threadless history!

crisco disco on Sep 24 '06 at 1:38pm

they haven't taken any other shirts off?

Aristarchus on Sep 24 '06 at 1:40pm

I'm no fag or nothin', but Def Leppard can totally suck my cock.

What a bunch of little fuckheads.

lemonalle on Sep 24 '06 at 1:40pm

I dunno, but if they have you're still part of a highly exclusive list.

Larlar on Sep 24 '06 at 1:43pm

I can't believe I'm even contemplating ordering it just because it's going to be rare.

OCandCO on Sep 24 '06 at 1:43pm

They have taken some shirts off for copyrite issues. I think this is the first shirt taken off for hurt feelings though.

Aristarchus on Sep 24 '06 at 1:44pm

I think since Threadless has decided to pull this, Crisco should sell his idea to Tshirthell.com.

isneked on Sep 24 '06 at 1:51pm

yea i can think of a bunch of nice slogans but theyd be better suited for tshirthell

crisco disco on Sep 24 '06 at 2:39pm

whoa. i didn't realize they had contests too. i just might milk it then.

Aristarchus on Sep 24 '06 at 2:54pm

Do it fast, Crisco, before someone here snakes it out from under you.

El_Dictador_Cubano on Sep 24 '06 at 3:40pm

so Def Leppard knows about threadless... Rick Allen will be keeping 2 eyes on the site from now on. (or 1 depending on whether he has both eyes, which remains to be seen).

I'm bummed I couldn't pick it up. It'll be worth a million dollars in ten years (which also remains to be seen).

label on Sep 24 '06 at 3:43pm

I just bought it. Selling it on ebay for $100 bucks next week.

squeegebeckenheim on Sep 24 '06 at 3:46pm

hahah! good idea sam!

ir0cko on Sep 24 '06 at 3:48pm

still plan on buying it, nicole?

squeegebeckenheim on Sep 24 '06 at 3:49pm

don't know.

realslimnatey on Sep 24 '06 at 3:51pm

i bought one in every size so if you change your mind later down the road, give me a HOLLER!

squeegebeckenheim on Sep 24 '06 at 3:52pm

hhaah. i will nate!

realslimnatey on Sep 24 '06 at 4:01pm

JK!!!!!!!!!111eleven11

deboraborialis on Sep 24 '06 at 4:59pm

Rick Allen lost his arm in a car accident on new years eve 1984. Interestingly enough, he was charged with spousal abuse after this, when he grabbed his wife by the throat in a airport. I'm not sure what this has to do with anything, except I used to be a big fan, until I heard about that.

fc gravy on Sep 24 '06 at 5:31pm

well, i didn't get this. if it wasn't for this tee it wouldn't hav made me look it up. ahhh, the power of the interweb :)
