Beats the hell outta me like a fifth rate caped crusader henchman, but here's a tee that attempts to connect the two care of myself and the wonderful typography and illo skillz of Lunchboxbrain:
![]() LBB, so sorry i couldn't email this to you yet...i uploaded the stuff at work but don't have access to my email there!
So I was browsing the local all-you-can-download outlet at your cornerstore internet site, when I was greeted quite shockingly with the last thing downloaded onto the site:
Smashing Rainbows: Rock Against Homosexuality At first my brain struggled with the title. It was trying its damnedest to turn it into a positive thing and I was just missing the point, where it was a music compilation intended to help gay people be proud of who they were and to come out of the closet and "smash the rainbow" apart to accept who you were, kind of like how an exceedingly "straight" sports team breaks through a thin layer of paper before running onto the court to slap all the other players on the softest and most homoerotic parts of their asses. But no, finally it dawned on me with the concentration of the word "Against" glaring at me like a bunch of letters dipped in flammable toxins, shot arrow-like into my eyeballs and started to burn the insides of my synapses. I've heard of Mothers Against Drunk Driving, the band Against Me!, the all-encompassing personality of Againstbound the blogger, but never had i seen the word put into an entertainment product on such an everyday and commonplace site as a popular torrent section. I had to prove to myself that this truly was the horrible musical experience i was envisioning, so i flipped to the track selection. These amazing examples of ignorant intolerance greeted me: 01. Knochenmuhle - No Reason (GER) 02. I.N.F.A.N.T.R.Y. - Lesbians are Faggots Too (NIG) 03. Evil. Incarnate - Killer of Faggots (USA) 04. Hais & Fiers - Gay Pride (FRA) 05. The Raunchous Bro - Dying in Pain (USA) 06. Feher Torveny - Szornyszulott Vagy (HUN) 07. Dead Christ Cult - Judas, One of Twelve (UKR) 08. Angry Aryans - Give Rainbows a Bad Name (USA) 09. Raw Hatred - Decimation of Faggots (USA) 10. Empire Falls - Why Has Hardcore Gone Gay? (USA) 11. People Hatres - Smear the Queer (USA) 12. Plunder & Pillage - Back in the Closet (USA) 13. Grinded Nig - Torture & Humiliation (USA) 14. Arghoslent - Ghosts of Flossenburg (USA) 15. Brigade-M - Homofobe Kontebonkers (HOL) 16. Wurm - Bear Roaring Metal / Bear Trap (AUS) 17. Absolute Terror - Forsaken (USA) 18. The Confederate L. - Time’s Up! (USA) 19. Geimhre - Burning Gomorrah (CAN) 20. Aryan Defense League - Sick Fuck (GER) 21. Chaos 88 - Homosexual (USA) Wow. Coming as little to no shock to me tho, was the fact that the majority of odes to gay-bashing would be from the USA. In a time when our country is not even close to leading the world in healthcare, education of its people, economic soundness and overall freedom and happiness, it's oh so comforting to know that the ol' stars and stripes is number one in something still, right? WRONG. I left a short and angry rant on the torrent's page saying it should be taken down. I'm all for free speech and the right of anyone to listen to whatever shitty music they want to, but am I wrong to ask them to remove this clearly hate-spewing metal album on a regular torrent site? I thought the only place you could pick up this vile mind garbage would be at Neo-Nazi rallies or Hitler impersonation book signings. I dunno why i'm posting this here, I'm just kinda shaken up from this at 6 in the morning.
Please take a guess or write about anything you'd like to talk about which takes more than two full paragraphs to fully explain or discuss on this blog.

Yes, I had to break out the lolcat-speech for this incredible shirt print. I hope you don't take this condescendingly cause it's not meant to be, but I'm really proud of you on this one DG. You took the criticisms of your first attempt in this style, went back to the drawing board and really worked your tail off to ensure this found a home on a Threadless-brand shirt. I'm also remembering that I came up with the best name in the world for this shirt, feLINES, typed it into the blog and thought for sure you would pick it....until i scrolled up a few lines and saw someone else (I believe ISA?) had already suggested the exact same name! Curses to them! hehehehe. O well, I think i'll be purchasing this for a bunch of folks anways, congrats again DG and you're half-way there on your select journey which I'm sure will arrive quicker than you think!
Because they are worthy of a 4$ or 5$.
Plus, I'm mad bored at work and have voted on everything and the blogs ain't movin very fast. Damn summer and everyone else having fun and not on Threadless but hurting themselves while having fun and dazzling me with stories in the ER about what a great time they were having in the beautiful weather until they injured their kneecaps. But 99.9999 percent because they are great works of t-shirtery that i would love to wear one day soon, and maybe you would too! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() HONORABLE MENTIONZ: ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() And if you see fit to take a gander at this collab I did with Threadless typography king Lunchboxbrain we'd so appreciate that yo: ![]() VIVA LA AWESOME WEARABLE ART!
I just showed my girlfriend Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring for the first time in her life- well, she saw it once when having an extreme fever and vowed to never watch it again, until I told her I'd personally go find an orc in the forest near her house, slay it and make a frilly coat out of its hide for her to give it another chance- and it got me thinking about what people's opinions of the films where that have taken over the original Star Wars flicks as the movies I'm talking about when referring to "The Trilogy".
Which one of the flicks is your fav and how would you rank them all? If your answer is "F, F and F-", go take your Hobbit hate somewherez else! Return of the King- A+ One of the more perfect films I've ever seen, and possibly one of the best things I've seen period. An amazing journey comes to a close in one of the most intense and fulfilling way possible. I don't wanna say this dwarfs other movies labeled as "epic", but the movie is roughly a hundred times more amazing than a fireworks show beamed directly into your senses while eating a New York-style pizza hand delivered by the Swedish Bikini Team. The extended version of this movie I like LESS than the theatrical one, because it takes away lots of the surprises you see later in the film and shows Gandalf as a gigantic pussy with the head Ring Wraith splintering his staff like it's a dead twig in August. I was one of the few people who wanted three more endings on top of the five that we were already given. The Fellowship of the Ring- A Introductory movies don't get much better than this one. Really well paced, everything made as clear as it could be when you have a zillion separate races of beings big and pet-sized running around (and naming your two head evil dudes Sauron and Sauromon is just a weeeeeee bit confusing, JRR!), it succeeds in ways that something like the first X-Men never could and seems like a flick not leading you by the brainstem through the paces of introduction, like an awkward meeting and mingling with all your grandmother's friends at her nursing home. The extended version didn't really faze me one way or the other, helping nor hurting the final film with the exception of having a lot more detail on the mini pothead hobbits which I greatly enjoyed. The Two Towers- A- My least favorite of the three flicks, and by "least favorite", I really mean "the least incredible and life-affirming". Some great battle scenes and plot development besides, Clerks 2 actually made the same joke I had been saying about this ultimately awesome bridge-the-gap movie in regards to the plot of the three hour-plus running time: "Hi, I'm an Elf, a Human and a dwarf running over epic landscapes. And we're gonna keep running while you watch us like suckers. Yup, still movin!" The extended version I thought was the best example of putting bits into the film that really added in some nagging problems i had with the flow and plot of this one. So, what's your ranking? Also, the behind the scenes on each movie's extended editions is nearly as fascinating and all-inclusive as the films themselves. PS- I'm not a fantasy nerd either and have not dressed up like any of the characters during my entire life.
Okay, some "other not Threadless" site prints out the occasional pop culture reference tee that I think is actually decent, but most of them tend to be about a youtube video fad that will be over and done with before you even receive the shirt in the mail (witness their "we'll do it live!" O-Reilly freakout video that was unearthed from the mid 80's that myself and five people remember of two months ago). It's usually the t-shirt equivalent of those Epic Movies that are churned out now every half year that make The Naked Gun and Hot Shot series weep tears for its parody non-prowess and complete ignorance to what is funny.
Anywho, try as I may, I can't wrap my head around these two references, even after the embarrassment of googling the terms to try and see what the devil might possibly be funny about them- I swear I heard my computer giggling at me for my ignorance! I think a part of me might actually be happy that I don't know what they are since it's bound to be less mystical than what I'd imagine them to. ![]() ![]() Please enlighten me, o intrepid internet reference types!
...the band Electric President? I download things randomly based on the name sometimes, and the album is called "Sleep Well" and after one and a half listens, I'm really digging its minimilist Postal Service approach with occasional "sun-coming-up-and-the-music's blooming" sections style of music. I think i've just been craving slow/creepy/ambient things lately for some reason, and after listening to Thome York's solo album like crazy again last week, I'm happy to find this very calming, almost Willow/Legend/Neverending Story etc fairy tale-ish album and band. Anyone else heard tham and think they rule/suck/are just meh?
Any other bands lately that are new or just relatively unknown that I should download or know about? about Laundry Monkie
Congrats a zillion Mr. Walmazan! This was one of the first pieces by you that blew me out of my chair and into outer space where i bit off a tad of an ancient star and washed it down with some black hole juice from the Big Dipper! It's a really hard skill to make something that looks just as interesting without the super glow effect as with it, and what you have given us is a tee that accomplishes looking great in whatever moment you view the picture on our chests in. I'm sure this is only the first of many from you, so let the printing Walmania begin and long live wannabe King Kongs! |
