Despite all the controversy, I think this t-shirt is awesome. When are we going to see it in kids' sizes and spread the deliciousness?

put it in the dryer, then it shrinks and your kid can wear it too.. if you are lucky enough the print will come off there as well

LOL. I like it, though. Sorry if that's unpopular.

Why is that, SuperRyan?

In a nutshell, it was promoted on social networking sites by Threadless while it was scoring. It also brought huge traffic to the website - it became viral - and a lot of people think it didn't deserve that.

Hmm, is that simply because it is felt to be a silly shirt or simply a boring/bad design though? I don't think that's much of a reason to have "bad blood"- that it brought too much attention to threadless for something that's not all that great or that so many people like it for some insane reason. I understand it's thought to be a stolen idea though- a mishmash take-off of Amazon's Three Wolf Moon t-shirt and a blog of a cat who plays the keyboard? (I don't know much about that though, as I only briefly glanced at the amazon t-shirt and haven't yet looked at the other source. I don't think a parody of something is a knock-off though, so I still support this. People on the internet often take up and run with weird crazes that seem bizarre though- what about the badgers thing where everybody would randomly say "ooooh a snake" and "mushroom mushroom!". It's a bit of a geeky thing to reference the internet irl, isn't it? So I see this as a bit of that, and it doesn't bother me. But again, I don't really know much about this, so please do inform me further :)

I believe that it was never really about the design, but the events and reaction to it.

And in the end I just think that it's a crazy, awesome design, it doesn't have to be anything more, or less, than that, to me.



But that's just my two pence :)

Wow you're a fast reply/er :P

I guess I don't really understand that, then. I tend to visit threadless sporadically, so I often don't know whatever's in the news with threadless. I'm just here for the t-shirts :D

Like I said before, the viral reaction to it. If you want, you could try the search function and look for blogs about it.

Thank you, I may just do that :)

Though I guess I meant, I don't really understand why that would cause bad blood. But yeah, I'm interested now, so I will probably look through it, at a time when I'm not meant to be doing something else :) Thanks for explaining stuff :)

I was also hoping this shirt came in kid sizes. My two year old would LOVE this.
