What's the deal with slogans?
It would appear that slogans are the realm of the artistically inept, if not just the plain stupid. Only 24 people are voting on these things? I guess the fact that the majority of the slogans are twaddle keeps folks from caring about them. I've only given the thumbs up to perhaps 2 out of 100. Anyone else care to chime in on this?

yeah.....I'm not so much a fan. I'm here to look at, submit, and buy art.

Though I will admit, most people whom I show the Threadless site like the slogans.

Meh...just not my thing.

I am the monkey in the tree - directly translated. But I'm not sure it should be 'dans'.

Figures. That's Babelfish for you. It's inspired by a bit that Eddie Izzard does in his show "Dress to Kill". If you haven't seen it, you're in for a treat. Highly recommended.

When you first submit a slogan it gets voting priority till about 20 scores and then it is mixed in with all of the other slogans we've received which is something insane like 120,000+.... so votes come a lot less frequently

Poop. I should never have put the comma in the slogan "Fascinated by small, shiny objects" I trust I will have the option to remove it if the shirt gets made?

All about me
I am the bee's knees. I can eat an entire jar of marshmallow Fluff and not die. I know more about useless ephemera than you do. I am a small, bluish-grey oracular rodent. I am married to a woman who is so beautiful she makes strong men weep. I have saved the universe over 400 times, and made 37 assists. I am an ordained minister. I am made of 59,730,599,206 polygons. I know a man who jerked off a silverback gorilla. I will drink Tabasco Sauce for money. I have played video games with the children of the most powerful men on the planet and emerged victorious. I once went to a strip club and pretended to be Patrick Swayze's evil twin. I smoked powdered toad-sweat and got the munchies. I don't floss as often as I should.
