You Are Here T-Shirt
March 10, 2010
It’s all relative. When your neighbors ask when you’re planning to remove all the dead hooker bodies from your front yard and you say “soon,” it’s really up for grabs what exactly “soon” means. Your neighbors probably hope soon means “sometime this weekend,” but in the cosmic scheme of things it could just as easily mean “sometime in the next 10,000 years,” which is VERY soon in cosmic terms. Your neighbors should be thrilled!
Speaking of things relative to the universe: ThinkGeek’s You Are Here t-shirt. This one is an old classic. I’m not sure where or when this shirt originated, but I think I’ve seen it in an old Simpsons episode. The premise is as simple as it is LOLious. First, you begin with a nice wide shot of the Milky Way Galaxy. For you novice astrophysicists out there, the Milky Way Galaxy is the very galaxy in which Earth resides. Science!
Then, for those who may be lost, a helpful sign reading YOU ARE HERE. It’s pointing right at Earth, and if we could zoom in far enough, we have to assume that it points to the shirt-wearer’s exact location. It’s probably very accurate!

Refill Required T-Shirt
March 4, 2010
I’m sorry if I seem a little off, you guys. Today feels like my inner-coffee-cup is running on empty, just like the one pictured on ThinkGeek’s Refill Required t-shirt.
This tee mimics your laptop computer’s annoying and constantly low-battery warning. While we’re on the topic: what’s up with that? Why do laptop batteries always go to shit mere months after you buy the laptop? I’m no Lawnmower Man, I know enough about computers to turn them on and find the porn, so please, someone explain what the problem is here.
Anyway, our own human bodies are often just as annoying as laptop batteries in that as we get older, we constantly and more frequently feel like we’re near death. It is only thanks to the mystical and life-affirming attributes of coffee that anyone is able to get anything done, ever. Actually, I don’t even drink coffee, and now that I think about it, I’m only assuming this shirt’s cup is meant for coffee. How about we agree that you can put anything you want in your cup. As for what’s in my cup? Heroin.

Colors: Black
Sizes: S-3XL

When your laptop runs out of battery, your computer dies. What happens when you run out of coffee?

Steampunk Skeleton T-Shirt
February 23, 2010
Steampunk: a movement that marries steam power with science fiction. Think Back to the Future III when Doc Brown blows into town in his flying locomotive time machine. A steampunk item appears rudimentary, like it was made from spare copper in Hephaestus’ workshop, but it’s entirely state-of-the-art. You know, kind of like the bio-mechanic thoracic region featured on the Steampunk Skeleton T-Shirt.
The geeks at ThinkGeek describe this shirt as a low-maintenance option for those wanting a mechanized rib cage and spinal column, and really, who doesn’t? I’d add that if you’re interested in going all the way with bone replacements, this is a good way to dip a toe in the water, as it were.
Honestly, though, who are we kidding? Science hasn’t come this far. When steam power was in its heyday (did steam power have a heyday?) people assumed we’d be flying around in jet packs by now. If you travel back in time and ask some guy in 1885 if he thinks people in 2010 will have steam powered bones and organs he’d probably say, “Time traveler?! What sort of witchcraft is this?!” but then later he’d say, “Yes.”

Wearable Rock Guitar T-Shirt
February 20, 2010
We don’t throw around the phrase Best T-Shirt Ever lightly here at Best. T-Shirts. Ever, but the Electric Rock Guitar Shirt from ThinkGeek is a definite contender for this most honored distinction. Are you sitting down? Because what I’m about to tell you will not only blow your mind but the minds of anyone with whom you’ve ever come in contact.
Get this, the Electric Rock Guitar Shirt is an HONEST-TO-GOD GUITAR. Well, sort of. The shirt features buttons on the “neck” of the “guitar” printed on the front. With a special magnetic pick, you can press these buttons while strumming and hear previously recorded guitar chords issue forth from a small amp that attaches to your belt. If that wasn’t enough, there are FLAMES around the guitar! Flames = More rock
I honestly cannot get over this shirt. This is some Inspector Gadget type shit, here. I would not be surprised in the least to see future rock guitarists start wearing rock guitar t-shirts on stage and playing them for millions of fans. Who wouldn’t want to see it?! The amplifier even goes up to 11, just like Nigel Tufnel’s!
Details:
Colors: Black
Sizes: S-XXL
Price: $29.99 (batteries not included)
Some shirts are made for wearing. The Electric Rock Guitar Shirt is made for rocking. Get Yours here.
Silly Einstein T-Shirt
December 17, 2009
Checkout this sweet vector art looking design from SplitReason, the Silly Einstein T-Shirt.
For those of you that think you’re too cool to wear a t-shirt featuring a crusty old physicist, well let me tell you, Einstein was a badass for his time. Many ‘legit’ scientist thought he was a hack and hated him… but that’s because he was too cool for school. Apart from his many impressive advancements in physics, check out a few of the things he said which were very outspoken for the time:
“Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I’m not sure about the the universe.”
“The only thing that interferes with my learning is my education.”
“The hardest thing in the world to understand is the income tax.”
“The word God is for me nothing more than the expression and product of human weakness, the Bible a collection of honorable, but still purely primitive, legends which are nevertheless pretty childish.”
And I’m sure there are many more, I’m just too lazy to keep searching for them. He also published papers on pacifism, socialism, and zionism and wore his hair all crazy n shit, like ’screw you social standards’. Anyway, I rest my case on Einstein being awesome.
