I work at a stone engraving shop, and for some damn reason every other customer wants Comic Sans on their stupid rocks, and it always looks terrible... I feel your pain.

kingforaday on Aug 03 '07

lose the text.

lol jk

tobasco on Aug 03 '07

This is hilarious. Not sure I'd pay 15 US dollars for it but I'm giving it a 4 anyway cause it's pretty damn funny!

It is the perfect "hip" designer T-Shirt so maybe I would buy it.

$4

mollyric on Aug 03 '07

Haha. I read kingforaday's comment and got all pissed. I was thinking "what the hell man? the text IS the shirt!" Then I read the rest and I laughed...ANYWAY! Nice shirt. I have a deep hatred for Comic Sans and the drippy, bloody text.

ALIADOTONY on Aug 03 '07

Good thinking ! somebody should do that to brush script too

kissmeimshitfaced on Aug 03 '07

You could include a couple of other overused fonts and he could be chucking them in the bin

Oxgoad on Aug 03 '07

Ooohhh. Agreed on Comic Sans, but how about including the accursed Papyrus?

mj00 on Aug 03 '07

I want someone to throw out a silhouette on the back of the shirt, for serious.

WanderingBert on Aug 03 '07

I like the idea. My problem is that my hatred of Comic Sans runs so deep I can't even stand it in this design. Good idea though.

Joelnz on Aug 03 '07

haha, yea its damn ugly alright.

mezo on Aug 03 '07

I love and hate this design all at once.

asfi235 on Aug 03 '07

YESSS!! $5!

guavawava on Aug 03 '07

hey - comic sans doesn't annoy me it's the people that use comic sans that annoy me

great shirt

FRICKINAWESOME on Aug 03 '07

C'mon Koelnz, EVERYONE hates comic sans by now....pick another font that isn't so hatred played-out! I like that your silhouteete is as ugle as the comic sans. But yeah, some more fonts with that one at the top would be good stuff.

Joelnz on Aug 03 '07

Koelnz?! :P

fathomit on Aug 03 '07

I LOVE THIS SHIRT!!!! because I hate Comic sans, and the people who use it too! If people could only know. This shirt could be the beginning of something truly wonderful; the annihilation of this ridiculus font.

Punkyem on Aug 03 '07

Yep

SourBitch on Aug 03 '07

Fuck. Asian Man Records, Keep Your Country Nice and Clean totally pwns! this. It actually LOOKS like a ripoff of the image (although I wouldn't go so far as to accuse -- for all I know, the little guy is the typical one in cities or something).

I'm confused and thus abstain from voting in this case.

Joelnz on Aug 03 '07

yea, this is the standard symbol

Joelnz on Aug 03 '07

and yea its a parody of the popular anti-facism image 'keep your country nice and clean' with the swastica replaced by comic sans.
pure evil.

SourBitch on Aug 03 '07

Ah-hah. glad I didn't use my Jump to Conclusions mat then!

Joelnz on Aug 03 '07

heh :)

robozippy on Aug 03 '07

Did you happen to work on the ban comic sans site?

It's funny!

Joelnz on Aug 03 '07

nah i only found out about that after i submitted, got quite panicky looking though it, thinking this design mightve been done. lucky it hadnt

Velvet Jones on Aug 03 '07

I painted a large mission statement on a factory floor, once, and used comic sans.

They loved it... I don't know why.

kaloyster on Aug 03 '07

I love Ragnaar's story.

Skydork on Aug 03 '07

I NEED THIS NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

aqua-star on Aug 03 '07

That. Is. Soo. AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Joelnz on Aug 03 '07

thanks guys

AdrienneXedge on Aug 04 '07

Yeah I hate comic sans too.

Kookaberry on Aug 04 '07

I guess the new cool thing to be is to throw out Papyrus. You guys taught me that I was a total douche bag for liking that font. But hey it looks good on the Power Point and my white collar tools of co-workers don't seem to mind.

abzdragon on Aug 04 '07

I used to work for a sign shop/engraving place... this made me laugh so hard my side hurt.. .seriously. Thank you. $5

Endless_Summer on Aug 04 '07

i don't get it,,

contusiondesign on Aug 04 '07

How about just make it all system fonts? Every last damn one of them...especially if it comes from a PC.

lessthreadsthebetter on Aug 04 '07

i
actually
like/maybe love
it =D

comic sans is almost as uncool as WordArt.
ergh that stuffs horrible.

petpenguin on Aug 04 '07

yeah i hate COMIC SANS...its just so ugly. whenever someone uses it on a project im like ocme on out of the 2000 fonts you had to choose that?
i would have to buy this...

SourBitch on Aug 04 '07

My mom's a publisher. I think she said once that her favorite font was "Penguin." That was a few years ago... She says she used Times New Roman most, though.

I'm... not a font geek.

Joelnz on Aug 04 '07

oh, by the way, the shirt doesn't have to be white if people dont like white shirts

Lochness-a on Aug 04 '07

Who doesn't like comic sans.
Crazy people.
I have no problem joining that club.
$5

Recycledwax on Aug 04 '07

as a graphic designer, i NEED that shirt! haha
great concept!

lizzie2 on Aug 04 '07

I like the concept but don't really like the design. I would wear it if the design was different.

translucentblue on Aug 04 '07

I HATE COMIC SANS! LOVE THIS SHIRT! 5.

ryananger on Aug 04 '07

I love comic sans... JK!!!!!!!!!!!!!! this is good.

Samantha1981 on Aug 04 '07

I love this, i would buy it if the design was smaller on the shirt though

SquidInk on Aug 05 '07

amen
five dollas

jessibowtf on Aug 05 '07

i have a grave distaste for comic sans and that bell bottom crap font from the 60's. $5 if you make it on a different color t, light blue?

theatreglory on Aug 05 '07

I agree with oxgoad, comic sans is really sick, but so is papyrus.
ewww.
Awesome shirt!
haha.
5.

ilikeice on Aug 05 '07

I beleive in that completely. Comic Sans SUCKS!

UsedMyName on Aug 05 '07

Great idea. I'd play around with lowering the wastebasket + bottom half of the person."Comic Sans" is a little too close to the wastebasket for my taste. Also, you may want to slim the icon of the body. As it is, the icon is the dominant image on the shirt, and it distracts from what should be the focus, Comic Sans being thrown into the wastebasket.

hokiepokie on Aug 05 '07

man. everyone really hates comic sans. i always thought it was okay. but you guys are probably right. who knows how many people have died at the hands of this horrible, horrible font....

Joelnz on Aug 05 '07

light blue would be nice

jsitzer9 on Aug 05 '07

Let's throw out Helvetica, Papyrus, Times New Roman, Arial, Brush Script, and Copperplate while we're at it.

chlobo107 on Aug 05 '07

Times New Roman is actually quite beautiful when it's blown up to about 300 times.

PilgrimSilvertoe on Aug 05 '07

lol! cool

jesse.d on Aug 05 '07

through out helvetica? what? papyrus, arial, brush script and copperplate are disguisting, but helvetica is legendary you need some history lessions.

times new roman too, what!

i like the shirt. 4

Joelnz on Aug 06 '07

Helvetica is God. its perfect. Arial could be done away with though

Ms.V on Aug 06 '07

Like it. A bit plain but works well with the text. lmao when I saw it!

morganinspace on Aug 06 '07

oh wow i love this design!

catzy on Aug 06 '07

Hey come on man, I love comic sans you will get a 0 from me.
Substitute it with Times New Roman and I will definately buy it!

mephitine on Aug 06 '07

Comic sans bugs the crap out of me. But as far as the other fonts go, I really don't even bother to notice.

Aw geez. Just noticed some papers on my desk here that were dropped off for me. In--you guessed it--comic sans.

At least it's legible. Could be worse.

applegary on Aug 06 '07

Great shirt! $5.. Can he throw out comic sans AND "there's a disconnect here?"

RaveDave on Aug 06 '07

comic sans goes into a bar. as he's about to order the bartender tells him "sorry, we don't serve your type in here"

D-maker on Aug 06 '07

Everybody aren´t designers, maybe it´s a joke from designers to designers.

murgles on Aug 06 '07

Everybody aren't good at Englsh either apparently :P

I think the shirt rocks, and yeah on something other than white and a tiny bit smaller would be more discreet and cute looking.

$5! I hate Comic Sans with a passion. They should just remove it from future releases of Windows so it goes away!

murgles on Aug 06 '07

...And I spelt English wrong. *laugh*
Anyway. DIE COMIC SANS, DIE!

Joelnz on Aug 06 '07

yep, im fine with it going on any colour

Aidosaur on Aug 06 '07

Haha, the problem is that it uses the comic sans to make its point. Therefore, I could never wear it.

It is a catch 22.

Joelnz on Aug 06 '07

indeed

shannon_c on Aug 07 '07

little boring. needs more colour

saporta on Aug 07 '07

I LOVE THIS

saporta on Aug 07 '07

oops i meant to add i wish there were different color options

Joelnz on Aug 08 '07

awsome

edspickles on Aug 08 '07

I love it too. I hate comic sans, brush script, and, the less available but no less satanic, Curlz.

robotsneedlove2 on Aug 08 '07

THANK YOU!

Joelnz on Aug 08 '07

you are welcome!

therecouldbenothingafterThis on Aug 08 '07

PAPYRUS must be added to the list. ugh.

Joelnz on Aug 08 '07

yuck

Calabasa on Aug 08 '07

HAHAHA! I laughed. Nice.

Joelnz on Aug 08 '07

pinksurfboard on Aug 09 '07

I LOVE COMIC SANS. Kiss that.
Seriously, though. What is the deal with everyone trashing it. Do you all truly hate it or is there some mob mentality goin' on?

skafiend007 on Aug 09 '07

You've got a very limited market with this, but if you're cool with that... go for it. I personally thing you should fill the trash can with other fonts too. Maybe comic sans is the most recent one dropped in. But hope it gets printed for you.

Joelnz on Aug 09 '07

thanks

ContinuityIssue on Aug 09 '07

I agree with the shirt but the design could be better.
$2

weirdnesprevails on Aug 09 '07

I think you should make a bundle of a bunch of overused fonts alone with comic sans.
just a thought.
but i love it. =]

defstar82 on Aug 09 '07

relatively funny

Joelnz on Aug 09 '07

gennyagogo on Aug 09 '07

Hahhahahaha, I like=D

ChubbsMcBeef on Aug 09 '07

Haha, I hate comic sans with a passion - this shirt rocks! :D $5

crunchiemilk on Aug 09 '07

I voted $5 ages ago, but I keep coming back to this cause the comments are great.
I still can't get over the fact that people really like comics sans.
This t-shirt should be printed and worn by all graphic designers (and like minded people) to educate people against comic sans.
Cuase it is the worst typeface ever.
BTW love the comic sans joke RAVEDAVE

Joelnz on Aug 09 '07

haha, nice

overprint on Aug 09 '07

A good idea! Both the design as well as the message. the garphic is a tad large for the shirt. but i'd want to wear this. $4

Joelnz on Aug 10 '07

excellent

AllieG on Aug 10 '07

Thank you for this shirt! Next, the world needs one for "Impact" and "Curlz"

Joelnz on Aug 10 '07

yes

Joelnz on Aug 10 '07

cool, thanks for your comments people
