Beauty is in the Eye of the Beer Holder, Not Someone Who Wear This T-shirt
2009-06-17 16:30:00 We've all been there... well, some of you. Remember that last few cheeky tipples? That's what you need to lose your rational thought. Recently, I read an article saying researchers have proved that in the haze of drunkenness beer goggles really do exist! Meaning, some people you wouldn't even dream of fancying suddenly become God-sent under alcohol influence.Another research found that according to the psychology team at Bristol University, as little as a pint-and-a-half of beer can distort people's opinions. They get Vodka-fuelled dude volunteering and were asked to the attractiveness of 20 male and 20 female faces on a seven-point scale. The same faces were then shown to the other guys who consumed only soft drinks -- for comparison. And guess what, some boozers scored the faces around 10 per cent higher than those who had not drunk.What this T-shirt is saying: "Beauty is in the eye of the beer holder" is true, but that doesn't mean you can lose yourself while you hold that...

2009-06-12 17:25:00 Bee happy, bee friendly. Honey bees are the most curious and amazing creatures in the world. They happily live in large family groups, work and play together. In a situation where the colony (group of bees) starts to become too crowded, some of the them voluntarily split off and form a new colony; breaks off with the old queen and flies off looking for another place to call home.

Feather Scarf, a T-Shirt for the Socially-conscious
2009-06-12 16:45:00 Simple white T-shirt ribbed banding at crew neck with feather graphic; a cool way to rock the season's feather trend? Tell me if there's any but this is the second T-shirt featuring beautiful feathers I found this month. Maybe that's how Ali Hewson and U2's Bono team up with New York designer Rogan Gregory to prove their one socially-conscious love for a sustainable world. It's because all EDUN tee is 100%, being promoted under ONE campaign to fight global disease and extreme poverty and bring fair trade and AIDS treatment to Lesotho, Africa.Being fashionable and socially-conscious?

2009-06-11 05:59:00 1985.

My Dreaming T-shirt Motivates Me! (When it's Not Insulting Me)
2009-06-10 04:55:00 When Christopher Reeve said "So many of our DREAMS at first seem Impossible, then they seem Improbable, and then when we Summon the Will, they soon become Inevitable," it means you have to pursue your dream no matter how difficult it is. But when your dream is fully, totally and completely synonymous to impossibilities, I'd wear this t-shirt for you -- suggest you to wear for yourself! Surely, you will later find a way to screw the world and grab your dream.If you feel that this purple color T-shirt motivates you, rather than insult you, I cannot hold you back to have one from Cotton Factory as one of your motivation gurus.

Alien vs Predator on My T-shirt, It's so Old School
2009-06-10 04:31:00 Long before Alien vs. Predator (2004) and Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem (2007) was released by 20th Century Fox, there's probably a similar movie preceding the sequel. Maybe, at that time, the sci-fi movie makers didn't have similar perception (or rather fantasy) of what we think about what suppose to be predator and how the alien should look like. Dinosaurs was the hugest, strongest and most aggressive carnivore ever existed and so they thought it made a great predator character. What about the alien? Surely this guy got the ugly-looking face, big-ass brain that showed how intelligent he is and wore its most futuristic shielding attire. I'm amused by Ames Bros retro sci-fi illustration of the battle between Alien vs Predator (as you see on this tee - $27 @ Anonymous Venice). The imagination we have today and in past about the battle and the two characters are completely different and yet it feel so similar! Now, how both characters will look like in next 20 years?

My Useless Superpowers T-shirt Will Save the World
2009-06-04 17:13:00 Watching Batman, Superman, X Men crews and other super heroes in action -- we are always fascinated by the use of super-powers to save the world from uncanny human enemies. And we wonder what would we do if we have just a piece of their power, are we going to save the world or using it for our own advantage? Few people know that superpowers are not only the privilege of our favorite super heroes characters in fictional stories. In real world, super powers exist and so the owners.

My T-shirt Says I'm a Paddle Ball Champion, I Believe I am
2009-06-03 15:48:00 So your parents, teacher and boss completely agree that playing paddle ball to often and being a 1st winner of a Paddle Ball championship in states league might not look good on a job resume, but it still will impress your friends and colleagues. Indeed, teaching fun sport games like paddle ball will always be a good reason to ask someone out.In practicing to become good paddle ball player, -- if not a champion -- an anonymous friend of mine told me to 1) Buy a high-quality paddle ball, complete with wide paddle, thick wood, thick cord, and solid ball; 2) Practice, practice and practice. You should set aside some time to dedicate to your paddle ball practice until your hand can move itself like as if it try to bounce the ball while you sleep; 3) If playing Paddle Ball too often makes you exhausted, play Ping-pong. Because the chances are, if you are skilled at ping-pong, paddle ball will come naturally to you; 4) Ask someone else to play against you. Many people tend to perform bett...

Rolling Stones T-shirt Series: Bruce Springsteen of the 80's
2009-06-03 03:45:00 For nearly four decades, Bruce Springsteen has been a rockstar of his working-class fans; as a man who lifted rock and roll from its early Seventies doldrums and to date, keep providing continuity and renewal at a point when we need them both. What I like from Bruce is that after so many achievement, the November 1998 when he is announced Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, he knows now to be humble.And I couldn't agree more when someone ranks him alongside rock and roll figureheads as the Beatles, Chuck Berry, Elvis Presley, and Bob Dylan -- a few musicians who shaped popular music and served as a pivotal figure in its own music evolution since its rise in the mid-Seventies. Bruce definitely deserve to be on the official Rolling Stones (cover magazine) series T-shirt ($50) -- also available in navy blue color from eModa. This is a T-shirt I want to wear next time I attend his concert. More About: Series , Shirt , Bruce Springsteen
My T-shirt (and I) Heart Super Grover of Sesame Street
2009-06-02 08:15:00 Do you remember Super Grover, Sesame Street -origin superhero whose famous attire consists of a middle-age styled helmet, a cape with ropes tied around Grover's wrists, and a patch with the letter "G" on his chest? I'm sure you remember this dude. What I remember most from this skinny super hero is his act when he is trying to help someone in trouble by doing something ridiculous such as saying "Woobba, Woobba!". Although Super Grover uses super powers to help people from bad guys, funny thins is he ends up not helping at all -- nonetheless, he had saved me many times from bad moods. I really love this dude.Thanks to 80sTees.com, I can wear my childhood idol T-shirt and let it make my day ($24).

Read my t-shirt. That's Enough Social Interaction for One Day
2009-05-06 23:36:00 Just because Go Away tee shirt is sold on Think Geek ($15.99), I don't totally agree if someone call my geek friend extremely introvert and hate people's interaction. Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Digg's Kevin Rose -- they are not friend, but -- are geek and yet not a loner. But I agree if there are true loners out there who never enjoy social interaction. Ask these people to do anything -- playing solitaire, being a team leader of no one or creating next cool gadgets for themselves -- and they will be more than happy to do so. Anything except doing social things. Well, the only "social" term they know is "social networking sites". If you meet someone wearing this tee, or you are that person, I hope nobody giving more sh*t than they (or you) need. Think Geek's 100% cotton charcoal grey t-shirt with the slogan "You read my t-shirt. That's enough social interaction for one day" helps loners not doing things they (or you) dislike.

Kinetix Asian Crane Apparel Features Japanese Calligraphy
2009-05-02 01:22:00 Every time I look at this tee, I feel a mystical energy comes out from this tee, probably because the distressed, artsy Japanese calligraphy art (which I don't understand the meaning) printed across the chest. I like the red-black color combination. It makes this apparel look great from here, at least on the front part. But its huge-and-bold Asian crane posted on the back which layered over a rising sun in vintage brick pigmentation rather put me off. I think it's overly design although not totally a flop.What do you think, should I complain about back side design of this tee? Overall, this Kinetix Asian Crane Tee does well for Asian T-shirt especially with it's washed in black with a slight v-neck and slim-fit shape.
