can i ask a question? is it ok in the US to use the phrase 'retarded'? I just see it a lot, and it's incredibly offensive in ireland, and europe in general.... Well drawn, but not to my style.

Nice layering. Nice design. Poor name choice. It is an offensive term in the US too. I guess it just depends who you hang with.

Adoring the deer, but there's something with the background that doesn't quite do it for me.

For once I actually like the text. But I am partial to the phrase "meh". It's so versatile.

The name seems fine to me, if it's a retarded deer than that's what it is, I've severl people who are legally retarded and the word doesn't frighten me, though I've never been one for political correctness.

When I saw the name and the design together I laughed, and then felt terrible about myself. The design is great, and the name is easily changeable. $4

whatever, everyone says things like; that's so... retarded *not me*, or gay, or something offensive like that. Political Correctness will be the downfall of humanity!

This shirt is a definite $5

yeah, everyone says it, but to mass market it still seems offensive. ignorance is one thing, butcommercially selling ignorance just seems a tad too much. plus you could change the title to dumb deer and it wouldn't loose any meaning... well drawn though

who cares about the name? its not printed on the T and should be of no consequence when scoring the design. people just wanna get all huffy and self righteous about it, which they have the right to do, but i'mma still score this as a 5$ even tho i'm not crazy about the name. (and i'm from boston, we say retahded all the time. wicked retahded.)

I'm offended by that title. My friend/cousin/neighbor/etc is a retarded deer. =)

But seriously, political correctness is what's retarded. If the title had been "stupid deer" no one would complain, despite the fact that it's a synonym. I think some people just enjoy being offended all the time. Luckily, political correctness seems to have faded away a bit in the past few years (except for politicians, not surprisingly.) Keep the title!

kmuto on Aug 03 '07
btw I don't really think the title's anything special; I just felt like ranting about political correctness :)
karma666
karma666 on Aug 04 '07
stupidity is not the same as retardation. a retarded person has to deal with a lack of capacity to gain intelligence, while a stupid person could have everything physiologically in their favor but remain stupid. do you see how that can be incredibly insulting?
anyways, design is bueno.

Hebby 101 on Aug 04 '07
I agree with 'karma666' and 'kmuto' that calling it a "Retarded Deer" could be very offensive to some people, because the sign still hints at it. Other than the sign and the title, cool design, it's very special.

vibrant. looks cool.
ndstillie
   ndstillie on Aug 04 '07
the title should go. i find it vaguely offensive, in the same way i dont like it when people call something "gay". Its just dumb and lazy
AsianMarck
AsianMarck on Aug 04 '07
Ummm... your "gay" ! I've been using gay as a synonym for stupid for 7-8 years now and I don't hate/discriminate against sexual orientation. I guess I'm just dumb and lazy for using slang.

This has been off subject, but the design is sick, the deer looks like the rabbits from Rayman Raving Rabbids. Oh the name is a little intense maybe "Special Deer".

this is so good. haha, I love it.

anyone bitching about the title needs to shut up cause they sound like whiney little retards

   Ellsswhere on Aug 04 '07
the designer is canadian, not american, so he can use any word he wants to describe a deer with a low mental capacity.
keep up this style and one of them will hit home 5$

ryananger on Aug 04 '07
retarded is generally a word that means mentally handicapped so if he's trying to depict a mentally handicapped dear, which i believe he is, then retarded would be the correct word.

yo dumbfecks

just because you don't think the gay and retarded kids care when you use words that describe what they ARE to mean something STUPID doesn't mean that you should elevate them from DUMB SHITE YOU SAY to STUFF COMMERCIALLY PRINTED.

dumbfecks.

"My brother is mentally disabled, and I don't like that word. For me its like calling someone who is black the N word. Not cool."

"retarded" when taken out of context from its literal meaning is used to insult people...otherwise it's just used to describe something being slowed down...if someone is mentally retarded they are slow to develop/think/react mentally. the N word in ANY context is an insult to people...how are you going to try to even compare the two?
