i got sick of them

tracerbullet on Feb 11 '08 at 12:36pm

they revolted in an attempt to dissuade you from buying their shrits

fatheed on Feb 11 '08 at 12:36pm

Monkey is the cleverest!

Todow on Feb 11 '08 at 12:38pm

Everyone made artsy tees which is a movement I fully endorse so you and everyone else that gives great tee shirts 1 and 0's just because they are not "cleaver" doesn't mean that they are not a good design. I can't count the number of good revolution subs that got no more then a 1.7 it pisses me off.

FRICKINAWESOME on Feb 11 '08 at 12:51pm

While i agree i enjoy clever shirts more than artsy nonsensical ones, this is is actually a very clever shirt AND an artsy masterpiece! You see, the wolf is howling at the moon which is also a record button, and is filled with awesome.

But the amount of arsty vs clever tees kinda worries me too.

Lets all bitch about Threadless having a little diversity in what they print.

littlem on Feb 11 '08 at 12:55pm

sorry you don't like it, jabberwocky. you'll save money by not buying it.

ladrones on Feb 11 '08 at 12:57pm

fu monkey is the best. how dare you insinuate that he is not particularly a genius.

this design is a step in teh right direction for threadless.
it has the right to appeal to multiple crowds.

the simplicity and flow. its great.
for SOME people they dont like
"i get it" shirts or overly elaborate designs
sometimes its good to just have a simple
balanced tee that you'll never get tired of looking at.
because its simple. simple is good.

viralVISUAL on Feb 11 '08 at 1:03pm

No, no. It's not a joke or a pun. So it's not clever.

BaronVonMonkey on Feb 11 '08 at 1:08pm

I agree with everything ladrones said

mezo on Feb 11 '08 at 1:09pm

Negative Nelly.

Bramish on Feb 11 '08 at 1:10pm

Shut your piehole.

ladrones on Feb 11 '08 at 1:13pm

oh. shit. well im not cleaver enough to figure that out.

ladrones on Feb 11 '08 at 1:16pm

yeah! you poo on this we poo on your mr!

wimbels on Feb 11 '08 at 1:16pm

What an extremely rude comment to make.

J-Ray on Feb 11 '08 at 1:20pm

I agree with everyone above me and disagree with everyone below me.

sonmi on Feb 11 '08 at 1:25pm

dang

realslimnatey on Feb 11 '08 at 1:28pm

sonmis cool!

Demented on Feb 11 '08 at 1:28pm

J-Ray tells the truth.

ladrones on Feb 11 '08 at 1:32pm

j-ray isnt gay and and isnt a poopie head

tesco on Feb 11 '08 at 1:46pm

I question your definition of 'clever'

tesco on Feb 11 '08 at 1:49pm

also 'arsty vs clever' is the stupidest shit I ever read

dunn wanna. on Feb 11 '08 at 3:39pm

I don't like this shirt at all, for the record.

Flippinheck on Feb 11 '08 at 4:58pm

This is only an issue if you actually have to buy every single shirt that they print.

How about this week you skip this one? Will you be ok with that?

roadkill3d on Feb 11 '08 at 5:02pm

*howls*

staffell on Feb 11 '08 at 5:03pm

are you mental?

_lydia on Feb 11 '08 at 5:06pm

i really like it

eruhk on Feb 11 '08 at 5:44pm

personally, i got sick of seeing shirts with semi-clever jokes on them, which is why i stopped buying from threadless in the first place. the novelty of graphic plays on words wears out pretty quickly. something well-designed w/ ambiguous intent will live longer in my closet.

snow day. on Feb 11 '08 at 6:00pm

Oh come on, I'm buying this shirt.

AgentSuprock on Feb 11 '08 at 8:58pm

Dude, I'm totally on your side. This looks like a giant ball of crazy stuck to the side of a discount bin in Urban Outfitters.

clever (adjective):
• skilled at doing or achieving something; talented.
• (of a thing, action, or idea) showing intelligence or skill; ingenious.

I think it's pretty clever, and a brilliant fresh design.

Phoenix4224 on Feb 12 '08 at 12:32am

i'm on your side Jab. the last time i posted a blog like this all the kids came out of the woodworks to protest.We're supposed to question the system, thats why its an open voiced democratic community.

viralVISUAL on Feb 12 '08 at 12:39am

Yes! Fight the 1 or 2 out of 6 shirts you wouldn't wear, because you wouldn't wear them, and by extention, no one else would. After they've already been printed and put up for sale, too!

It's your democratic duty. And dammit, it just makes sense.

KBShakedown on Feb 12 '08 at 12:45am

But complaining just feels sooo goooood!!

Not even close.

All the clever designers realised that pun shirts aren't the be all and end all, so they got creative. Case in point.

Monkey III on Feb 12 '08 at 6:43am

I got the feeling these chumps don't even know what the acidhaus shirt is based on ^^ And they still bought it ahahah.
They crack me up.

Monkey III on Feb 12 '08 at 6:46am

ow I see now...
barw aka benjamin wagner is 15.37 years old

Ask your art teacher or whatever where the 'haus' in 'acidhouse' comes from. You will learn a thing or two lol.

fatheed on Feb 12 '08 at 6:52am

Monkey.

The Bauhaus called.

They want their style back.

Monkey III on Feb 12 '08 at 6:55am

ahahah my next project will be a building

tesco on Feb 12 '08 at 6:57am

Just make sure it's 'clever'

pinpinpin on Feb 12 '08 at 7:11am

the average threadless buyer is a moron and buys the shirts with "hilarious" quips and comparison jokes on them in a vain attempt to make some of the sunday-paper chuckles rub off on themselves.

this is a very pretty shirt. the only reason why you dont like it because it makes you feel like a retard, because you cant stand the idea of a shirt without a christmas cracker joke on it.

peace
