If only I wouldn't be arrested for wearing this at school... D:
|
 |
I dare you to wear this to an airport.
|
 |
The gun should really be taped to the small of the back so it's more accessible. Between the shoulder blades would be harder to reach quickly and slow down the action hero.
|
|
...but shouldn't the gun be at the small of the back? As opposed to up behind the shoulders.
|
|
Yeah.
|
 |
makes me think of contraception
|
 |
i like it but wouldn't wear it -but 5 cause I like
|
|
Aristarchus- who do you work for?
|
 |
bad timing.
|
 |
Now make a t-shirt with a sticks-of-dynamite-around-the-waist design..
you may have found your niche... terrorist t-shirts.... |
 |
way way bad timing. actually, I don't think there would be a "good" time for this one...
|
 |
I agree - consider moving it lower on the back.
|
 |
Wasn't there one sub pretty recently that was a gun in the back of the shirt all the way at the bottom, but upon closer inspection it was a water gun?
This makes me think of that a lot, but minus all the subtly. |
 |
Presumably the reason this is at the top, and not in the small of the back, is that it's a reference to Die Hard.
But I agree with others here that perhaps gun designs aren't in the best taste right now, if they ever are. I really don't understand people's obsession with guns, but at least this is a film reference... |
 |
fucking stupid....
|
 |
lol awesome
|
|
cool, but kinda scary

Aristarchus- who do you work for? I could tell you, but then you'd have to be vanished. |
|
I love love love the die hard reference. yippee-ki-yay motherfucker
|
 |
kind of funny a while ago,...but in all honestly, very poor taste to keep promoting anything like this...even if it is supposed to be funny,...that makes it even worse...
|
 |
lol. i luv tht!

You want to worry about something, worry about the NRA. The influence they have is far greater than the influence a t-shirt design has. |
|
meh, its clever. i just don't dig guns
|
|
original!
5 |
|
A gun TAPED to you r back
thats funny to me, 5 |
 |
whats with all the gun shirts?
|
|
Heh I like it.
|
 |
Now I have a gun.
Ho. Ho. Ho. |
 |
FRICKINAWESOME on Apr 25 '07 I got the Die Hard reference right away. "You'd make a pretty good cowboy yourself Hans.....OLLIEE!!!!" The front of the shirt should just say Plan B though in the Die Hard lettering. then i would $ this. A 3 for now.
|
|
FRICKINAWESOME on Apr 25 '07 regiddur- cmon man!!!! Now i have a machinegun! ho ho ho. Yippie ki yeay, mellon farmer! (that is actually a reference to another die hard referencing shirt that was subbed like ahlf a year ago...man, the referencing is running deepo here!)
|
 |
dont wear this on the london underground. Might be the last thing you do
|
 |
There is a world of ideas out there for beautiful, witty, thought-provoking designs. Can everyone just leave the guns alone? It's just adolescent to be so fixated by these things. Pathetic. I didn't want to be rude, but that's how it is. Same goes for all the teen wank fantasies of nubile, coquettish women with pert bits.
|
|
That always happens to me, i'll be walking about and some joker thinks it's funny to stick a firearm to my back... 3rd time in 2 weeks.
|
 |
kaloyster on Apr 25 '07 I can wear that shirt anywhere.
|
 |
Man, bad timing, but such a cool idea!
|
 |
"if we stop making shirts with guns on them, the terrorists have already won."
|
|
"If t-shirts with gun designs on the back are outlawed, only outlaws will have t-shirts..." or something like that.
|
 |
too complicated..
|
 |
i love it but people might freak out cuz of the virginia tech thing
|
 |
its great but with the VT shooting... sorry
|
 |
Yeah, really bad timing. I hate gun tees anyway. Ugh.
|
 |
jpiatt on Apr 25 '07 move the gun down and it's brilliant!
|
|
jpiatt on Apr 25 '07 oh and not to sound insensitive, but the Virginia Tech thing has nothing to do with this shirt, that guy was just a fucking psycho.
|
 |
Great idea...but I couldn't wear it anywhere but my basement.
|
 |
bad timing!! use a hand acme tnt or something and it is less like recent events in the US
|
 |
It's cool but i'll like it much more with another font.
|
|
jpiatt - yes, this t-shirt will not make anyone go out on a shooting spree, and yes, it's a reference to a film.
But after something as shocking and horrible as the VT massacre, don't you think it might be time to lay off the gun references for a bit? People see an image of a gun strapped to someone's back, and they think of the VT shooting, because it's prominent in everyone's mind right now. And he may have been a fucking psycho, but he was a fucking psycho with a gun. Big difference. |
 |
makes a better joke than a shirt
|
 |
Cho No!
|
|
as a side note though, and NO ONE WILL BELIEVE THIS, the song playing right now on my iTunes.....Plan B by Mute Math! Somebody drop the odds on that one!
|
 |
1 to 22,053.
I did that one in my head. |
 |
I like this shirt! I don't see how it's any worse then those shirts that say "BOMB SQUAD: If you see me running, try to keep up."
|
 |
5'd
|
|
I think the girlie version should have a large dildo taped to the back...
|
|
Such bad timing especially with the Virginia Tech shooting...
|
|
^ Is it insensitive of me to say that these kinds of comments bore me?
No disrespect meant to the students at Va Tech, but people's reactions to school shootings and the like are assinine. For a couple of weeks, maybe a month, everyone's on about "*tsk* Too soon!" this, and "*ugh* Guns!" that. But pretty fuckin' fast, they all forget about them and everything is back to normal. If you really gave a shit about people who are victims of gun violence, your outrage would last a little longer than it takes for Brittney Spears's latest fashion faux pas to push the latest school shooting off the headline. End rant. Now give it a rest. |
|
regardless, still just a bad idea for a shirt
|
|
love it, I agree with lowering the gun though for easier access
|
 |
agree with aristarchus. but i wouldnt buy it, even with the die hard reference. i hate front/back joke shirts they annoy the fuck out of me.
|
|
and if anything the gun needs to be up higher..you try subtley reaching over your shoulder to the middle of your back not even brucey could do it
|
 |
ya in light of VT, ppl will frown upon most gone related designs, but besides that if the gun is taped to ur shoulder how can u reach it, its gotta be by the kidney.
|
 |
I like guns a lot, I own a couple but I have never wanted a shirt with one printed on it. I just don't think it's cool. Now, a shirt with kittens and a hand grenade, that I would buy!
|
 |
The illustration is good, but the idea behind the shirt is a little scary.
I would suggest switching the gun to McGyver type stuff- like a paperclip, a stick of gum, and some string. More tasteful, same idea. |
|
If the gun was taped to the lower back, where one could actually reach it, I'd give this design a $5 :)
Until then: 4 |
 |
The funny thing (both "haha" and "strange") is that most people only get upset about a t-shirt after a headline news incident. People get shot every day, this shirt isn't going to up the number any, just like not printing this shirt won't save any lives.
That said, I give this a $5. |
|
Wow a lot of posts. ahhh yah, that shirt sucks.
First.... it is so insensitive to the violence in todays society. Second. Plan B is a skateboarding company... total rip off. |
|
Actually, the term "plan B" existed before the skate company, douchebag.
|
 |
atleast this is a good idea to actually wear anywhere...?
|
 |
great idea. i would be murdered for wearing this to school.
|
 |
Lol nice shirt, just.. not white, please.
|
|
$5 hate guns, like clever tshirts
|
|
$ would defo buy ... but yeh move it to lower back. Would be nice on light blue.
|
 |
i like your style (i just looked at your other subs), and after finding out that this was a die hard reference, it's hillarious (i've never seen it. i know. i'm lame).
is it horrible if i didn't even think of the VT shootings when i saw this? the shirt has nothing to do with it. i agree with lornagertrude, pu it higher up. i can't reach between my shoulder blades to scratch an itch, let alone to subtly reach for a gun. also, the die hard font on the front would make it just a little easier to understand. but the sublty is nice too. |
 |
watch die hard again. the gun is upside down, and too centered
|
 |
yikers. plan B makes me think of the emergency contraceptive. I wish this were a pro-choice shirt instead of a Bruce Willis reference. eh.
|
|
diff color shirt, move it down and i'd buy it
|
 |
i like, i don't understand why people are saying it's scary???
|
|
bahahaha!! i love it!
its just a joke guys! lighten up |
 |
Its very die hard (& I loved that movie!), but, I cant see High schools being to comfortable with kids wearing this.
|
 |
wow, I didn't realize it had made it into scoring. I've been out of town and when I checked it I was amazed at how many people have commented. Thanks to everyone, (even the nay sayers)!
|
|
I can understand why some people freak out about guns. I also understand that this did come with some bad timing. But when it get's down to it, a t-shirt, a song, or other common media really is never going to make a difference when it comes to gun control issues. If someone wants to make a difference write to your congressman, go to council meetings, get your opinion heard. I am a strong supporter of stricter gun controls laws, some people should not have them. I own 3 guns myself and I love to target shoot (not into hunting but thats just me). over all, I love die hard and I have wanted to make this shirt since I first found this site.
|
|
Aristarchus- love the airport comment. I have a rod in my leg so I beep in the metal detector. Can you imagine if I walked through with this shirt on. hahahahahahahahahahahaha
|
|
I like the water pistol idea too. Good thinking
|
|
ZingerVx1k- I'm sorry dude, but I have to agree with the guy that posted below you. The term "Plan B" has been around before skateboards were invented.
|
|
as far as colors go, the square boxes in the top right were my choices for color. I thought it was easier displayed for scoring on white but it can really be printed on any color.
|
