That's high-quality humour.
Ok, maybe not. But, like...
it's an inside joke? |
Yeah they're funny...but thats where it stops. You can't look at any of those for 15 minutes and figure something out that you didn't get at first glance. If I'm gonna be standing in front of people looking like a dork playing records I want a shirt that makes people curious...

The only thing about threadless, is that they take FOREVER to ship orders. but for $10 i think i can look pass that :P
refers to this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xenu
*Sciencetology is GREAT reading. Man the more you get into it, the harder you keep laughing!
| quote: | In Scientology doctrine, Xenu (also Xemu) is an alien ruler of the "Galactic Confederacy" who, 75 million years ago, brought billions of aliens to Earth in DC-8-like spacecraft, stacked them around volcanoes and blew them up with hydrogen bombs. Their souls then clustered together and stuck to the bodies of the living, and continue to wreak chaos and havoc today.
These events are known to Scientologists as "Incident II", and the traumatic memories associated with them as The Wall of Fire or the R6 implant. The story of Xenu is part of a much wider range of Scientology beliefs in extraterrestrial civilizations and alien interventions in Earthly events, collectively described as space opera by L. Ron Hubbard, science fiction writer and founder of Scientology.
Hubbard detailed the story in Operating Thetan level III (OT III) in 1967, famously warning that R6 was "calculated to kill (by pneumonia etc) anyone who attempts to solve it." The Xenu story was the start of the use of the volcano as a common symbol of Scientology and Dianetics from 1968 to the present day.
Criticism of the Church of Scientology often brings to light the story of Xenu. The Church has tried to keep Xenu confidential;[1] critics claim revealing the story is in the public interest, given the high prices charged for OT III, part of Scientology's secret "Advanced Technology" doctrines taught only to members who have already contributed large amounts of money to the organization.[2]
The Church avoids making mention of Xenu in public statements and has gone to considerable effort to maintain the story's confidentiality, including legal action on the grounds of both copyright and trade secrecy. Despite this, much material on Xenu has leaked to the public. |

I am not trying to be argumentative or push you buying something from tshirthell, as I don't really care where you buy your shirts from, but which of those shirt designs you linked in your original post is really thought-provoking? o.O
I agree, the tshirthell ones are just to be taken at face-value, and then that's it - the gimmick wears off. But if you're standing in front of a big group of people, turning knobs on a stereo wearing a big grey shirt with a swimming polar bear on it, you're still going to look like a dork...
unless your throw your arms in the air like Jesus. Then it doesn't matter what shirt you're wearing. |
