I love how you actually have to be a geek to get this. The simplicity and how you made it resemble a the text on a terminal screen is cool! :)

Like it, and would buy it :)



I'd get rid of the space between the (base) and the '*', it looks like you are capturing and replacing one base and all it's trailing spaces.



Although I'd make it:



s/(bbaseb)*/us/ig



but that's just me being an old Perl coder :o)

Darn, it stripped out the back-slashes from my comment.



Let me try that again:



s/(&92;bbase&92;b)*/us/ig

Sigh,



Ok, so the comment system strips backslashes, and escapes '&' so I can't include backslashes at all.



So replace &92; with backslashes at you'll see what I was trying to write :)

thanks guys!!! and re the geekiness, it is 'threadless loves geeks' afterall :)



paulleader:

yeah the comment system has caught me out many many times!



there actually isn't a 'space' before the '*' it's just the font and because it's blown up so much, probably should've photoshopp-ed it a bit to reduce the whitespace.



lols yep, i get what you mean - the very much needed escape slashes!



...and go perl - hacky but so wonderfully powerful :D

Since the ratio of guys to girls in the Comp Sci/Engineering/IT field is so skewed I would say this is too nerdy. You would end up with a lot of girls asking questions, followed by an immediate "wtf tard" look as they walk away...regardless of whether they know of the meme or not. I appreciate your effort to try something different though.

thanks for all the comments :)



@albion2304 - yep seen heaps of geeky shirts that have awesome taglines in code form. wouldn't mind a couple for myself actually.



@duracell - always happy to try something different and 'out there'. true that the ratio is rather skewed, but i don' t think that should prevent anyone from proclaiming their geekiness :D. (btw...i'm one of the few girls that you're talking about :P)
