About my design

by special~K
Pretty self explanatory....the sad this is that I used to watch these episodes with my dad(who bought a dodge ram pickup the same color as Walker's.) Who knew he would make a comeback into the limelight so late in his career?? A cult hero.



I went with the monochrome look and stuck with 'Walker colors'-- like the orange, which is like his rugged beard and the Texas Longhorns; or the army green, like when he's hiding and getting ready to roundhouse kick a mofo.....



Hope you like, enjoy!

It'd look more like a walker with the tennis balls stuck to the front feet and little wheelies on the back. LOL



I freaking loved this show.



And to add to the growing commentary on Chuck Norris, here's mine: Chuck Norris invented cheeseburgers by throwing a cow through a chain-link fence.

Chuck Norris' tears can cure cancer. People still have cancer because Chuck Norris has never cried. Ever.

special~K on Apr 02 '08
i really wanted to put the tennis balls on it too, but since its so minimalist and there isn't room for much detail in the walker i thought it looked best without.....i had them on at one point and it just looked wierd to me.

oh and this is my favorite ChuckFACT:



Chuck Norris sold his soul to the devil for his rugged good looks and unparalleled martial arts ability. Shortly after the transaction was finalized, Chuck roundhouse-kicked the devil in the face and took his soul back. The devil, who appreciates irony, couldn't stay mad and admitted he should have seen it coming. They now play poker every second Wednesday of the month.

I know it's self-explanatory and everyone else seems to get it fine, but could someone spell it out for a girl who's never been to the US? Right now, I see "I love walker [American state?] rain-ger? cloud-ger?" I don't know.

It's a show on the tele starring Chuck Norris called "Walker: Texas Ranger" with a huge cult following.
phyntosia
phyntosia on Apr 02 '08
And, OK, is this a reference to a TV show that starred chuck norris? I just have no idea. I'm guessing the show was called Walker Missouri Ranger or something random like that, but to someone who has zero knowledge of American geography, I have no clue what the middle icon is.
phyntosia
phyntosia on Apr 02 '08
Oh, Texas ranger, that makes much more sense. Did it air outside the US? I wonder how many non-Americans would get this. Very few non-Americans are going to recognise the state of Texas by its shape, I'd imagine... although I could well be wrong.

Chuck Norris once roundhouse kicked someone so hard that his foot broke the speed of light, went back in time, and killed Amelia Earhart while she was flying over the Pacific Ocean.

special~K on Apr 03 '08
@^^^ i guess you need to be smarter than the shirt



and i seriously doubt anyone thinks of the walker as a cane. your only legitimate gripe is cloud....that is the only one i thought people might have a concern about... and people not from the US might not know its Texas

phyntosia
phyntosia on Apr 03 '08
Maybe add wheels or something to the walker (it's known as a walker in NZ as well as a zimmerframe) to make it more obvious what it is... and I think everyone will automatically see it as "rain-ger". My only big concern would be the shape of Texas *shrugs*

Amazing! No one can complain about this shirt, and if they do, it doesn't count because I can definantly see this getting printed and it being um, well, amazing! :D

BAH! I keep checking back here for more CN fun, and I have to say that metal spider makes me incredibly happy... I think I'm going to consider it a metal spider from now on. So there.



And in case you were wondering...



If you ask Chuck Norris what time it is, he always says, "Two seconds 'til." After you ask, "Two seconds 'til what?" he roundhouse kicks you in the face.

Chuck Norris lost his virginity before his dad.



I'm not American and I recognise Texas, it's a pretty famous state. But there was a joke about Virginia and vaginas on another site that went over my head.

special~K on Apr 04 '08
Thanks squatterjohn. I didn't want to come accross as a conceited american, but i thought many people not from the US would still recognize Texas as well...it is one of our more famous states.



And what is the Virginia/vagina joke? I don't think i even know that one and I'm from the US.....



All i know is: There once was a man from Nantuckett.....



and Chuck Norris' urine was canned and is now sold as the energy drink Redbull

On another t-shirt site I was staring at the picture for ages thinking "That's not a vagina"



Chuck Norris doesn't sleep. He waits.

Yeah, we call it a zimmer frame in the UK - I thought it was swings. This isn't going to sell outside the States - puzzle doesn't work, and the show isn't broadcast either. I guess it's funny if you still find Chuck Norris jokes hil-ar-ious, but Threadless is an international site and it's not going to translate.

mippy, all websites are international. They only write in english, so they area catering to an even smaller crowd, and they only have one store, in the heart of america. Now I'm not saying this shirt is going to be printed, but if it were we wouldn't share it with you over the pond, 'cause chuck norris is our god and greed is the american way.

I appreciate the joke, and walker texas ranger aired in finland too, but I had no idea what it said even though you made walker references in your first post. I couldn't connect the walking-aid-thingie with the word walker at all. Also, the shapes of U.S. states really aren't recognized that well worldwide.



Still, they've already printed the mess with texas shirt which also doesn't really open to non-us people so maybe they'd print this too!



But really the retail store location argument seems a bit stupid as threadless makes most of its sales via the internet, no? I understand the retail store was only opened recently, as in the last two years or so.



Oh, and Chuck Norris doesn't wash his clothes, he disembowels them.
