Threadless, you sure know how to rack up my impulse purchases.

But props to the designer.

This shirt's text was my AIM profile for the longest time (...has it really been more than three years since the design won?)... eventually replaced with "Damn Scientists," which I now own, my senior year of high school. (omg iwassohipster*beforeiknewwhathipsterwas) I don't know why I never bought the wonderful shirts I found here (much less registered as a member; think of the community cred alone!). But here's this year's Christmas dream come true: I randomly posted a picture of the "fluttering" design on Facebook last week, and immediately a first-year acquaintance replied: "HOLYSHIT. I have this shirt in a boy's small. When you come here, it's yours." (I took this semester off, and I don't know his class yet.) ...methinks this is the beginning of a long (and possibly sexual) (...if only out of gratitude) friendship. *On another note, it's so lovely flipping back through some of the earliest designs. Especially the sort (like this one) that got printed sans selling points (y'know, multiple elements of submission up for voting) (more than one picture). I wish there were a book of the early (or the most popular) (or the retired) (or the _____) Threadless designs... not photographs, just the designs themselves. Is such a thing in the works, Threadless? (Such a thing should be.) [aaaand obligatory probably-been-asked-before question: How long has it been since its last(/only?) re-print?)

The order's still waiting to be processed. The shirt's been sold out in that size (colour) (mostly it's the colour that sold me on it). Question of my Christmas: Do I still get my shirt?!?! Iwillbesoangry. |

my mind is a big hunk of irrevocable nothing which touch and taste and smell and hearing and sight keep hitting and chipping with sharp fatal tools in an agony of sensual chisels i perform squirms of chrome and ex -ecute strides of cobalt nevertheless i feel that i cleverly am being altered that i slightly am becoming something a little different, in fact myself Hereupon helpless i utter lilac shrieks and scarlet bellowings.

Peace and Hate. Can You Tell The Difference? Fluttering A Room With A View Poet-Trees I Can't Draw Et Cetera Ta$ty Mix Splash Of Senses Hero Within Emotional Trip  I once saw a boy with a "Flowers in the Attic" tattoo at UC Davis. I scrambled to take a secret photograph and spent the next hour attempting to flirt from afar. I now keep my urge to own this shirt a dark, dark secret, along with the fact that I own a Polaroid camera. And a typewriter. And some Bukowski first-editions. ...oh, who am I kidding. Threadless caters to a piece of every creed and (sub)culture. I happen to be composed of most of these pieces, in pretty parallel proportions at that. (But I'll still never buy a type tee.) Also, I was born (...nude) about twenty minutes from the Threadless Headquarters, which I think is almost as cool as being conceived on Halloween by crossdressed parents. (Edit: Now that I've been to their factory, it's even cooler.) |
