My latest t-shirt idea is this: a drawing of a pig in a power suit, with the words “Capitalist Pig” beside it.

If you’re not shitting me (I know I already asked, but still; that CD took a long time to get to you… 😛 ), you are the coolest person ever! Thank you, thank you, thank you! I’ll let you know when (if, you sick bastard!) I get it.

:still beaming:

He’ll wear it all the time! 😃

I loves me some [tshirthell.com](http://tshirthell.com)!

I have a shirt from them that says “Homosexuals are Gay”. I wear it to every Pride event!

I did, however, stop receiving tshirthell’s newsletter, because they can tend towards the VERY, VERY offensive side. I’m no uptight, PC-freak either. But they do come out with some funny shirts.

That’s another shirt I’d like to have (for myself, not my son).

Maybe next year; I already did my good deed for this one.

Please, please tell me where I can find this T-shirt. This is screaming to be worn by me in Vegas.

We picked it up from a vendor at Bear Invasion in DC in November. Not sure where you could find it in standard retail, though.

Seems like there has to be an online T-Shirt specialist that sells this thing. Usually those stands at those events are just reselling items found at novelty outlets.

Grrr, I hate when I can;t find something I want. Poop.

What size do you wear? We’re going to Bear Trek in Connecticut in late April, and it’s possible the same vendor will be up there. We could pick you up a shirt and send it to Chicago.

Any of these types of shirts that just have text or text plus simple graphics that you could make yourself (depending on your level graphic art skills) can be made online for probably less money than you’d spend at a vendor, even after shipping. There is one really popular site to do this on that a quick Google search should reveal.

MadTV (I think) had a Spishak commercial for t-shirts for children. My favorite was “Daddy’s Little Punching Bag”. So wrong but so funny.
