Where is the ramp to heaven?

Nicely cruel

Wheelchairs come with you when you die. Who knew?

not very nice

harsh :-P

you make a good point. you "climb" the stairway to heaven to the "walk" on the right hand side of god.

haha I made a slogan a while back with the same idea.

But didn't you know? Handicapped people aren't allowed in heaven. ;)

Ahahaha! XD That's awesome.

we forgot to make hypothetical methods of afterlife transportation politically correct?
crap.
love this.

priceless. Fingers crossed this gets printed!

I really like the idea, but this illustration is a little crude and lacking in style. 5 for the concept 1 for the art = 3

Hahaha.

Good perspective on the staircase, though it doesn't flow well for a shirt. Heaven's gate & clous look weird. Clip art weird. And the starburts behind could be better executed- add more, and make them more like rays & not abstract rectangles. The albino bald cripple is funny.

Hehehe...Stupid cripple.

hahaha...that sucks (not the shirt)too bad theres no elevator to heaven and i didnt know inanimant objects could die...but its a funny shirt, i like it.

Is this based on that Christopher Reeves picture with Jesus and his wife in heaven saying "Hurry the Hell up Christopher!"?

i like the idea but not the ilustration.

you're going to hell!!!!

I also like the idea, not the illustration.

But the crippled people use them pathways for wheelchairs, right?

the wheelchair-bound individual looks a wee bit too happy to be really miffed and complete the joke on this tee. Great concept, but needs a few more weeks back in the fryer to be cooked properly...o, and frustration lines above the crippled dude's head.

Love it! Poor Christopher Reeve.

Lawl, I had to google Christopher Reeve to find out who he is, so no this is not based on him. I agree about the little man, it's hard to see his face on the smaller image, and so he doesn't look very sad. While I was making it the image was quite a bit bigger and the expression was perfect. Rookie mistake, haha. However, the clouds are my second favorite part! (After the stairs, the stairs took so long to get just right).

Concept is better than execution. The concept is sweet though.

awsome 5$

:3 best thing ive seen lol u better win man =D

Fantastic - I love the simplicity of the design!

bahahahaha! that's awesome. warped, but awesome.

Interesting idea, but I think the execution needs a lot of work. And even though it doesn't seem like you had a mean-spirited intent, I don't think many handicapped people will see the humour.

^ Sometime wheelchair user and I'm entertained and not even slightly surprised that the same thing would apply to heaven as everywhere else [g]

Is this meant to be funny or mean?

Just out of curiosity, and pardon me if it's too personal, but how can you be a "sometime wheelchair user" dusk?

the execution is pretty bad.

nice idea, but the design needs work.

reminds me of that simpsons episode where it's actually an escalator to heaven...

I like the idea, the design could use a little work though

no.

Like the idea. The guy needs to look sadder though.

One can only hope that karma is real and that you soon find yourself squirming in your own poop at the base of a staircase.

For the love of god, people. I am not making fun of the handicapped. It's called situational irony! If anything I'm making fun of Christians, or Led Zepplin.

stairs are well done i think the rest could use some work

asshole.

Handicaps don't go to Heaven. I truly believe this.

internet people are funny.
anyways, very nice shirt.

I'm with Ganj. You are one sick and cruel little girl, though I will give you partial credit for your youth and youthful ignorance. If this is supposed to be making fun of Christians, then it is a concept so poorly executed that no one on this thread and no one in the real world will get it. But fess up--it's not about Christians, and you know it! You should also be made aware that Heaven is not merely a Christian concept--Muslims, Jews, and some types of Buddhists also believe in Heaven.
The power dynamics of humor largely revolve around the social power of its targets. If you want to mock others, why don't you mock those who truly deserve it--the rich, the corporate rulers, the death-dealing military-prison-industrial complex, the selfishly ignorant? What's the matter -- do you see people who suffer every day as somehow more deserving of your juvenile, clueless scorn?

Jesus Christ, mindfeeder! Re-fucking-lax, will you? If you're offended by the shirt, rate it a 0 and move on. You think your eloquently-worded flaming is going to change anything? I still think it's funny. How is that... scorn? Wtf? First of all, exactly who actually thinks heaven has a stairway? And second, who believes that a person would still be crippled when they went to heaven? Third, haha I pissed you off. Look, I would imagine it sucks to be handicapped. But if you can't laugh at yourself or your situation once in awhile, then you might as well be in hell.

Actually, I'm not disabled, and was laughing and thoroughly relaxed when I spoke my mind to you earlier. I'm not interested in changing a thing related to your shirt, just trying to get a point across as to how thoroughly un-funny and uncool your design is... Do you find ripping the wings off butterflies funny too? What about shortchanging the blind or kicking the crutches out from under the disabled?

Okay, how did you go from guy in a wheelchair can't climb the stairway to heaven to ripping off the wings of butterflies? Really, man, you are taking this t-shirt design waaaaayyy too seriously. It's IRONY. Do you even understand the concept? The design has no deep meaning. I was looking at a Led Zeppelin poster, it said "Stairway to Heaven," I thought 'haha, but what if you were in a wheelchair OMG THAT SHOULD BE ON A SHIRT' and then I made it. I am not mocking the handicapped. But if you see it as such, then seriously just give it a low score. Don't go insulting me as if you're so high and mighty that you must correct me in my flawed thinking! Do you even know me? Or do you just feel the need to shout your opinions from the top of the internet as if anyone will actually take them to heart? Well if you know everything, why don't you make a shirt illustrating one of my problems? I can think of one. Ragged, thirsty person in a desert, but there's a bunch of people in front of the oasis and he can't go get water because he has social anxiety disorder! HAHAHA I should make that one NO STEALING YOU GUYS.

nifty i like!!! makes me laugh!

OH MY GOD! I NEED THIS!! NOWWWW! $5

hahaha that would suck.

This supports the fact that the meek shall inherit the earth, no?

Of course I understand irony. You just don't know how to be ironic, unless you think irony is a synonym for stupid. I also understand courtesy, cruelty, decency, even the stupidity and lack of taste that you have shown in this offering this disgusting shirt and that of your handful of juvenile admirers. Maybe when you grow up a little bit you will understand what I'm trying to tell you. Frankly, I hope that if this shirt is ever printed that it's wearers get their toes crushed under the wheelchairs of the disabled or get their pea brains knocked out by their crutches. Do you have any knowledge of the struggles of the diability rights movement to win full acceptance in your own decadent and depraved little empire? I didn't think so. Have you ever studied the Americans with Disability Act, or know what its about? Ditto. Frankly, I''m having too much fun intellectually slicing and dicing you--it's a bit like shooting fish in a barrel. I suggest that you ignore this posting because if you respond I will humiliate you once again.

Oh yes, I'm so crushed. Arg I am bleeding under the weight of your almighty knowledge and petty insults. You said yourself that you're not disabled. No I haven't studied this Disability Act, but I doubt doing so would hand anyone any amount of real empathy for the handicapped. But this is beside the point. You refuse to listen: This is not making fun of the disabled. Just the same as my profile picture is not making fun of gay people. It's just an observation. Of course there SHOULD be a ramp to heaven. If anything this design is more of a statement to the way that those in wheelchairs are constantly screwed over. Come on. Why do you feel the need to come here and insult me? I'm not humiliated by your arguments, just astonished at how much of an arrogant asshole you are. Do you do this to every designer whose shirt you don't particularly like? So you think my shirt is stupid. It doesn't change the fact that the design is ironic. If you think the irony is stupid, fine. I don't really care. But good god, your blatant flaunting of your supposed knowledge of the rights and struggles of the disabled borders on frickin narcissism. And perhaps you are narcissistic, in which case there is no point arguing with you. After all, you've blatantly ignored the finer parts of my arguments (hello you can't know what I was thinking) and just throw out synonyms for "you suck." You apparently think being 33 makes you better than me. Well, yes, I am sooo impressed that you've spent so much time and energy arguing with a teenager over the internet. It is the epitome of intelligence, isn't it? Fine, if you're not going to argue reasonably and stop fucking insulting me when you know nothing about me, then I'm done. We can end this argument here. Of course you'll have to have the last word, so go ahead and call me cruel, stupid, and immature again. I know you haven't become tired of saying it. One last thing. The only commenter who admitted to using a wheelchair: Not offended.

Hey.. RE-LAX.... I challenge vicious stupidity where ever I find it. Nothing personal, hon...

Just how emotional people are getting over this design proves its worth.

wow mindfeeder, I think you've missed the point here.

sonofadiddly: I get what you're trying to say here but methinks the design needs a bit of tweaking. Agree with FRICKINAWESOME, figure needs to be bigger so his frustration is obvious. That should get some of the naysayers off your back.

To fit it all in, make him bigger but have the stairs shrink as they get higher. Ditto with the gates since it'll add perspective to the whole thing and make them seem even more unobtainable.

webpossum: Thanks for the advice. I never thought of making a perspective effect. I appreciate it and will use your suggestions.

i like the way it looks but what it meens makes me really sad...i love the way the person is drawn but it just makes me really sad.

Wow, sounds like two people here need to chill out. But I'm not naming any names.

I really like the concept, but something about the perspective of the man and the wheelchair don't seem quite right.

having spent almost 6 months in a 'chair' and knowing how hard it was for me to get around and do shit this is a bit depressing...

You are all taking this way too seriously.

People get through tough situations using humor.
Even prisoners during the holocaust made fun of themselves just to stay alive. You're all offending those who are in wheelchairs by assuming they're going to take this shirt as a serious commentary that they have nothing to look forward to after death. I've helped carry a man in a wheelchair at the subway station when the elevator was broken. He thought it was the funniest thing in the world laughing the whole way up.

Lighten up and appreciate the joke. There's nothing cruel or insensitive here.

omg so sad :[

i still like it though

I'm rating this shirt a 5 just because the commentary is HILARIOUS.

mindfeeder, are you a pretentious liberal arts college graduate? Cause you sound like everyone I know at my pretentious liberal arts college.

I agree that this commentary is hilarious.

I AM BOTH DISABLED AND CHRISTIAN and I still think it's funny.

good concept bad execution

I LOVE IT!!!!
