I'm demonstrating insane geekiness by mentioning this, but.....

That's a regular nut with right-hand threads, but the bolt has left-hand threads, and so they'll never mate together.

Poor robot, even his smutty daydreams are doomed to fail. :-(

Found this last night whilst aimlessly ping-ponging around the internet.



I think the artist has an existence here on Threadless, but I'm too lazy to check.....

no Garfield please

Discuss.

Andrew Skewes, I'm talking to you!



Good grief!

After all, if Threadlessers were shopping anywhere else, it would be, like, disloyal or something.

And definitely, the real creator of this design wouldn't get around much, would he?

Pffffhhfhfhfhhfhhtt!!!

Has this happened to anyone else?

I was rushing through a second sale purchase this morning....selected the shipping options, everything looked good. Put in my CC info (had to re-enter it, I was rushing too much to be accurate typist) and only after I clicked on the final button did I notice that the total had jumped up by $20.

Ouch! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh!!

More positively, shipping a couple of prints to Canada was a LOT LESS than I expected. Older blog posts said that the shipping was more expensive than the prints themselves, so I'm happy that this has changed.

Ah, machine translation at work. It's how Google Translate turns "tome du poulpe" into mangled English. I wonder what it's supposed to mean....

Sounds like a pretty decent band name, though. Question for the masses: what musical genre?

Threadless peeps know everything cultural, so.....any ideas?

Yet another goof has probably "found" an image on MySpace:




LOLZ

In the next day or two, the Threadless submissions counter will hit a fifth of a million.

My sincerest sympathies to the staff who've had to wade through them all. I bet you've gone through a number of keyboards over the years......
