Well, one day I got bored. Really bored. As a matter of fact, I was so bored I almost fell asleep (which is quite unnatural for me). While I was bored, I started thinking about stupid stuff. That stupid stuff led too questions, and suddenly my curiosity on the subject became so intense that I had to think of answers. And I came up with a lot of answers, all equally true, yet some caught my attention more than others, and they were often quite humorous. Among these questions was "why didn't I ever make a cafepress store?" and, it struck me: my "answers" would make great T-Shirts! I quickly set up a shop and put together a few designs in Flash (which happened to be involved in one of my questions), and here it is! My store!

Post comments and the like, and ph34r my non-profit skillz!

This stuff's alright, but there are a few items, like the Check, Check, Check shirt, the n00b bib, and a few others were just simply awesome!

I agree: The Noob thing is simply awesome.

Sold anything?

I wish I was a baby...

Those are pretty clever. Not anything I'd really wear, but impressive considering they came out of nowhere.

I think I've seen the noob baby shirt somewhere before, though...

Here's an interesting bit of information:
The save the trees shirt was actually an enviornmentalist's idea, sort of. I let her tell me what to put on a shirt, and soon "Save the trees" became "save the trees from growing old", inspired by the cadence about clubbing baby seals. Infuriated at the idea, the enviornmentalist, my sister, left the room. Later I came up with "It's dead cow eating time!" and she walked back in the room, looked at the screen, and laughed, and justified laughing by saying that cows are meant to be killed, unlike trees.


Now, as for your comments...

Thank you. However, there is no n00b bib, though I do think the crawler is quite awesome.

1. Indeed. Not my favorite, but one of the better ones.
2. No. I might not even buy any, because there is a screenprinting shop right down the road.
3. n00b is an insult, n00b (though the crawler is pretty l33t...).

But the shirt SAYS you're a nude, so either way you lose!

I found what you might be thinking of... http://www.thinkgeek.com/tshirts/kids/59cc/
I came up with the idea on my own though.

Last I checked it's possible. I personally probobly won't, because I could just go too the screen print shop down the road, but you can buy off cafepress.

If you're uncomfortable with the whole idea of using your credit card on teh interweb, I can give you a high-quality image for you to use yourself, assuming I recieve credit, of course.

Also, I'm working on a calender and I expect to be finished later this month or early next year.

I think he means he can give you an image to take to a shop and have it printed on a shirt yourself.

Me wants the Why?/Because shirt.
