The non-standard English is quite appropriate for the subject matter. I like it.

I agree that "I ordered it without olives" would be more standard English, but I also agree with jasonq that the non-standard English fits. :) Very well done! 5!

Haha, that is so cool! However, much as I love the design, I would not wear bright orange. I look fugly in it.

"I said, 'NO OLIVES!'"

Love the facial expressions.

Is there a rule it has to be in English?

I teach World Civilizations and I'd love to have this to wear at school. A few suggestions though: Remove the blue pilar above the ladies head and fix her left hand (its' on backwards) The Egyptians were two demenional in their art but they werent nimrods when representing the human form. Pizza box and pizza needs a bit of work to fit in better with the Egytian art. Maybe curl your fumes so they don't look so much like whiffs of stink rising from the pie. Fix the English, maybe have her cussing, "I said NO F***ING olives, but use Egyptian hieroglyps for the curse words. You can find numerous translators all over the internet to help with accurate or authentic hieroglyphs. One last thing make the pizza bag bigger and make the font clearer. It would be more appropriate to use a latin or greek look font than the bad western movie font that is on it now. It took me forever to figure out that the top word was "sphinx". Make the changes and this is a definite winner! 5+

I would love a traditional Egyptian design like this, but without the joke on it. Just so I had a fancy Egyptian shirt to wear. I still find this amusing, but I think it would be rad if you made another similar that is just traditional, since your style is amazing.

really, I think you could just as easily remove the dialog bubble and make her smiling - happy her pizza arrived.

As a former delivery driver, I hope she still gives Osiris a tip. The look on her face says otherwise though :)

delightfully random... I'd buy $5

I look sick in orange, and I agree with changing the text; "I ordered it without olives" just seems to flow better. Only my opinion, though. $5 anyways. Hooray!

stumpymatt on Mar 15 '07
i disagree with changing the text, changing the wording or getting rid of it. The goofy choppy english only makes the joke funnier. I wish the pizza satchel thing was bigger. To match the pizza box size. Unless it's like the crow guys purse. Still... $5

Isn't the delivery guy Thoth? Also -- fix the left hand and the verb tense and I'm all over this shirt. My friends say they'd buy it too!

Oh, and I think it should be different color. That's all!

5, but I wouldn't wear it only because I love olives on my pizza.

Very nice. The "had" is perfect in my opinion. If ancient Egyptian deities could speak, they would use "had" like that. Gives it an appropriate foreign antiquated feel.

But I do like this.

I'm a sucker for anything Ancient-Egyptian - love it! The text works fine, but you could take out the "had." $5
TheMacFactor
TheMacFactor on Mar 18 '07
yeah, the "had" is distracting from the rest of the shirt, i think.

All this picking on the speech bubble is ridiculous. The English is NOT THAT BAD. How many of you would be getting your knickers in a twist about this if the designer hadn't drawn attention to it?

Imagine it said like this: "I had ordered it without olives!" in a condescending/disdainful tone. See? Sounds just right for an annoyed Egyptian queen.

I like it.

"I ordered it without olives."

Your sentence makes sense, but it's just awkward.



Great.
