About the design

Yes, we all know that the "I (IMAGE OF HEART) Something or Other" tees have been done to death, so why not strap on a shirt that makes fun of the whole trend while still being a part of it? A collaboration of the most punny kind between Twiggyhall and FRICKINAWESOME.

I love the name on the side of the tire. Very clever! $5
Twiggyhall
Thanks! :)
We are thinking this bad boy should have the letters done in a "felty" style, if possible or maybe puffy...

I tire of bad puns?
I tired of bad puns?
genghisbunny
get rid of the text on the tyre and it will strengthen your design immeasurably.
It distracts from the purity of the basic design.
I still gave you 5.

um, just cuz i'm anal retentive. I'M... it's just bad english lol
pairoffairies
It is NOT bad English! The English is just fine. And thank goodness there was not a D stuck to the right of that tire!
I think that the text is needed on they tire so that we can easily tell what it is. I suggest removing the face from within the tire instead.
Great job!

Actually jessi, "I Tire Of Bad Puns" is proper English. It's not supposed to be "I'm tried of bad puns", it's in the present tense. Sorry if this seems a bit awkward to people, but it's the only way the pun would work and since it's proper English, I thought it would be fine. Thanks for all who have given us suggestions and have liked it. Keep em comin!
FRICKINAWESOME
I meant it's not supposed to be "I'm Tired of Bad Puns." lol.
Cantatus
Good idea, but I'd lose the face in the tire.
iilusionofchaos
lovely design. boo for orange, though. :p 5, and it'd be a $5 on a different color, green maybe?
Twiggyhall
Actually, we got 'cher other color choices here: (crossing fingers that this works) :
For more color options, click here."
Twiggyhall
Shoot! Me try again:
For more color options, click here."
lucidorprime
Love this. Lose the face and I'll love it more.
I hope you get printed [sans face]!

the font reminds me of those 80s shirts with the velvet letters.
neat!

Lose the face and the tire text, and you've got something there...
randomeight
I know the idea is to mock the "I (heart) ___" idea... but the grammar of it seems so awkward. I suggest "Bad puns (tire) me," instead of "I (tire) of bad puns."
FRICKINAWESOME
If the Threadless public desires it so, we shall remove the frowny face from the middle of the tire. I dig the tire name tho...it goes with the point of the shirt. I never really thought there would be an issue with the grammar in this one....interesting comments so far everyone! We will take them all under consideration, so thanks!
sheriboz
Love it!
johnnycakestheman
The grammar sounds fine to me. And I'm sick of pun/I
johnnycakestheman
"pun/I heart this or that" tees, so I really love the idea. Great design!
MothermayI
Clever! I would totally buy it. Based on the color choices I prefer the Original. Khaki could also work.
Twiggyhall
The face can be removed in a heartbeat if that's what the majority would like. I'm glad you guys seem to like the idea for the most part.
Thank you for the nice comments so far and please keep them coming :)
The Chemist
The tire text is solid, just lose the face. Brilliant design!
Kookaberry
Issues with grammar come up in a society where most reading is done through text messaging. I love the shirt and it's clearly proper English. LOL K THNX BY!
$4
Kookaberry
And I like the face, it adds to the kitsch 70s/80s design. Felt letters would totally rock if they did that, too.
Littlefishies
Brilliant! I, too, like the face - he's clearly "tired" of the pun, too! lol! I think the design would be fine either way, though.
I bet this sucka' prints!!!
$5
ISABOA
HAHAHAHAHAHA - I'm radial of bad puns 5$
muffin2
Very funny. However, I don't like the face in the tire though. I'd like it more without.
The Original Fashionista
Lol! I love the idea of the felt letters - hope they can do that. 5$
apoterek
Get rid of the face and its a $5 for me :)
kennybanzai
I like bad puns! This made me laugh.
hk94
Lose the face, and I'd buy. Glad I read through all the comments... I was also thinking that it should be "I'm", until you all pointed out that it is "I tire", not "I'm tired".
illeagle
would be better without the face and without "not so good year"...5 otherwise for the punny err funny concept
gyrfalcon
Awww... I feel punished :( Bad puns are awesome! $5
catdogpigduck
shouldn't it be "I'm" tired
FRICKINAWESOME
Catdog- No, it shouldn't. lol. Read above good sir for the present tense explanation!
DRisIN
HEH!
Red Threads
Keep the text on the tire, it cool. Lose the face though.
iheartu10390
This reminds me of a shirt i saw that said i (picture of a spade) my cat..

I'm going to go with the no text on the tire group. I think having the play on the "goodyear" brand makes readers think the pun is related to goodyear at first, or at least it could. A nice wood-blocky tire would work better for me.
Twiggyhall
So, the cries of the people have been heard and without further ado, here is a version without the face in the middle for you all to ooh & ahh at :)
Tire with no face
Flying Mouse
Nice one!
ya_rly
I definately like it without the face :] it makes it easier to get...with the face it looks like...a sunburnt sun? an overfried egg? at this point its just pure simple, and pure funny. :] $5
Digdag88
ohh, i REALLY didn't get the tire thing. i had no idea what that was. the tire with no face makes it easier, but i'd still have to point out that there are shine marks on the tire, and i never see any shiny tires.
but maybe i'm just not looking
