This is my least favorite shirt this week. Should have been printed on a kids tee. Runnin' Rhino, War and Peas, and Nonsense are a close second. I know that there is a market for this kind of "funny" shirt but I feel that they are overtaking threadless.

threadless has always done juvenile shirts. go way back to "Ah Munna Eat Choo"

Where I live, little kids can't wear shirts to school displaying knives or anything "bad".

Same here (with the kids and shirts bit). In fact it's even looked down upon in the high school.

Personally, I find this sense of young humor uplifting.
And cute.

I think this idea is actually really clever, and not just one of those Boy Fitz Hammond cutesy for the sake of cute designs. I won't be purchasing anything from this week (which is a definite rarity for me), but this might be the only shirt i'd half consider.

i like it!

what i dont like are those weird "artsy" designs that are made with horribly clashing bold colors. cant think of an example right now...

then again, i'm a fan of cute funny cartoony shirts, so many i'm biased. but this shirt made me laugh out loud =D

I haven't bought a shirt since July 7, and I've only missed one that I wanted.

And that's sayin' sumpthin'.

'Cause I buy everything.

I like the concept but the angel is weird and you can't clearly see the knifes

Despite my (recent, not very strict) moratorium on the purchase of cute designs, I've just bought this and Runnin' Rhino. They make me smile every time I see them, and that's gotta be worth a buy, no?

I'll also be picking up Kojima's Select later when my credit card's had a chance to breathe.

The funny shirts are the only reason I come here. Most of the artsy ones are shite.

i love the expression on the pig on the right.

most of my shirts are funny/cutsy. planetary status.. camouflage, robot dance contest, defend the kingdom, haikus are easy but.., chinese peaches, only in dreams, midnight snack, star men in moons milk (AMAZING), mob musicians, pandamonium, polar gardening, everybody loves a yeti


i love this and home away from home. definite purchases this week

It's not so much the cute shirts I'm not into but moreso the ones that try to be clever with some kind of pun. I just don't find obvious jokes funny. If I can look at a shirt and think, "I get it!," then I usually don't think it's funny. I find it funny when I look at a shirt and think, "What the F!!??"
