Brick Construction T-Shirt

April 10, 2010

The self-proclaimed geeks at ThinkGeek are in the business of thinking outside the t-shirt box. Their latest stroke of textile genius may, at first blush, seem simple enough, but it provides endless possibilities. The Brick Construction t-shirt is a black tee with an attached black construction-block baseplate, the kind you have in your childhood Lego stash.

That’s it. That’s the t-shirt. The rest is up to you.

Do you want a Speed Racer shirt? Build it! A giant penguin? Build it! A rendering of Pablo Picasso’s painting Portrait of Gertrude Stein? Okay, that’s kind of weird, but you can build it!

Really, the only things holding you back in terms of t-shirt options are lack of imagination and strength. One imagines you wouldn’t be able to build a scale model of Seattle’s Space Needle on your shirt, as this would certainly be too heavy for any normal human being to carry on his/her chest, and the load-bearing weight for these shirts is probably two, three pounds maximum, anyway.

We should also mention that the shirt supports more than Lego blocks. PixelBlocks, Mega Bloks, K’NEX Bricks — you can have it all!

Details:
Colors: Black
Sizes: Kids S-L; Mens M-XXL
Price: $9.99

Wi-Fi Detector T-Shirt

April 7, 2010

Wi-Fi Detector T-Shirt

One of the best things about living in an apartment is leeching everybody’s wi-fi signal. Shit, it’s not like you’re dumping rent money into unowned property and paying $1.75 per load of laundry for nothing! There have to be some perks, and looking into other people’s windows compensates only so much.

For whatever reason, though, the stolen apartment wi-fi is always squirrely. You never know where/when the signal will be good. It takes constant desktop monitoring. UNTIL TODAY. Thanks to the Wi-Fi Detector t-shirt, you can fry an egg, trim your toenails or fry your toenails all while keeping a finger on the pulse of the local wi-fi signal strength.

That’s right, geekazoids, this shirt features a wi-fi detector right on the chest. Everywhere you go, you’ll know if you can, like Pauly Shore in Encino Man, wheeze the juice. No more clicking tiny icons on your taskbar. It’s the year 2010, the future is now.

My favorite part about this shirt is ThinkGeek’s product features section. It first touts, “shows signal strength for 802.11b or 802.11g” and then immediately after this, “black 100% cotton t-shirt.” You know, just your average cotton wi-fi detector shirt. No biggie!

Details:
Color: Black
Sizes: L-XXL
Price: $19.99

Get the Wi-Fi Detector t-shirt here and have something glowing in your chest like Iron Man.

Electronic Drum Kit T-Shirt

March 6, 2010

Electronic Drum Kit T-Shirt Remember ThinkGeek’s electric guitar t-shirt? Of course you do because it was awesome. Well, those wily geeks have done it again by taking awesome to the next level with the Electronic Drum Kit t-shirt.

As you might imagine, this shirt features a standard red drum kit on the front, replete with flaming red skull. Man, that sounds like a boring shirt, right? Are you serious? Have you learned nothing? This seemingly standard tee includes seven touch-activated sound pads underneath their corresponding pieces on the drum kit. You tap the bass drum, you hear bass drum. Tap the snare, you got snare, baby! (Is Billy Mays writing this review? R.I.P.)

What this means is that the next time you’re on the subway and some homeless man shambles up to you with dirty hands and rickets, you can just melt his face off with an impromptu drum solo. Yes!

Now, I can explain what this shirt is about until I’m blue in the balls, but wouldn’t it be easier to show you the shirt in action? Exactly, so take a gander, John Bonham:

Details:
Colors: Black
Sizes: L-XXL
Price: $29.99
(Get $10 off for the next 10 days, use promo: DNDRUM)

If you already have the Electric Guitar t-shirt, get the Electronic Drum Kit t-shirt and you’ll be well on your way to starting a band! (You should name your band Destiny’s Child.)

I’m In Ur Blank T-Shirt

February 24, 2010

I'm In Ur Blank T-Shirt

“I’m in ur computer reviewing ur t-shirts.” That’s what my I’m In Ur Blank t-shirt would say. Confused? I’ll explain. This nifty write-on, wipe-off t-shirt comes with a washable marker, some blank lines and the essence of a Web-famous catchphrase — I’m in ur base killing your d00dz.

If you’re unfamiliar with this line, bless your heart, but just know that it originated among on-line gamers and was then inexplicably picked up by the LOLcats (or is it LOLcatz? I don’t fuckin’ know) movement. Anyway, it’s time to see this Internet classic with a clean pair of eyes, and the onus is on you.

It’s like Madlibs, except all you ever need is a location, a gerund and a noun. If you’re a doctor you could be “in ur colon videotaping ur ass.” The state penitentiary’s alpha male may be “in ur colon dicking ur ass.” Prostate cancer would be “in ur colon cancering ur ass.” As you can see, the possibilities are endless. If you don’t like where you are and what you’re ____ing, just wash the shirt and come up with something new. It doesn’t even have to be colon or ass related.

Details:
Color: Black
Sizes: S-3XL
Price: from $17.99

Comes with a washable marker so you can write and reuse!
I’m in ur good esteem insisting ur wise enough to get the I’m In Ur Blank t-shirt.

Wearable Rock Guitar T-Shirt

February 20, 2010

Playable Guitar T-Shirt

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.
