Quotes for Shirts

Postby Pureferret » Mon Oct 20, 2008 5:40 pm

So then, Dreya is trying to herd (?) people (?) into getting Sci-Fi shirts. But a shirt isn't a shirt, as Toaster will tell you, without a snazzy slogan or quote on it.

This thread is here for people to discuss goo ad and bad sci-fi shirt quotes.

The one I have for this year (my first with a shirt) is "Back of MAn, I'm a Scientist" cookies for the film it's from.

Any one have some cool ideas?

Previous years slogans have included:

I'm not a sodding Elf

(in letters covering the whole of the shirt) If you can read this you're too close (visiable from the other end of the parade)

Poster girl for Chaos and Destruction

Nobody knows I'm Ookami

Death by Shonen-Ai

Fusion of Brundelfly and teleporter was successful: I'm the result

"Spell checkers are your friend"?

"Pressing shift too long isn't"?

And for a non-sarcastic one, "Give me a thousand men with a thousand guns, and I will storm Hull."

Or possibly "Narcissm - its just so easy when you look this damn good!"

I have a hoodie and a t shirt, and the two slogans are:

"Holy Shit! Variable Time Speed Rooms!" and

"It's not easy having a good time, even smiling makes my face ache."

And if you don't know the second one, you soon will.

I have no idea what I want on this years.

I think it's the hardest part of sci-fi, something original, similar to your personality and all that. Jon went for the cop-out option, I recall his was simply "Jon-Kun"

You can blame Craig for those, actually. Think it goes:

Moi: Kanga
Craig: Roo (this connection concerns me slightly)
Jimmy: Tigger
Rob: Rabbit
Toaster: Eeyore

I'm going to make door signs in time for 1st November when we will have people descending on the house to watch the Blade Triolgy. :lol:

His skin is made out of gaming,
and his bones are made out of anime?

:?

Might require further work.

I'm pretty sure that is biologically impossible.

Mind you, since when did that stop me doing anything?

It's the "bouncy, bouncy, bouncy, bouncy - fun, fun fun, fun fun!" bit that gets a bit special.

What is Jimmy if not Special?

Any more quotes to get new/tight wadded people out there buying shirts?

What did we decide on whilst we walked down the hill?

My current edition is "My battlecruiser is this big".

Options for the next round include

"Twisted, yes, but strangely fluffy",

"The ninja pastry chef has a cunning flan" and

"My puns kill babies, the elderly and infirm"

I've just found this one, for amusement value:

"Committee - a group of people who keep minutes and waste hours."

I was thinking "Where have all the Bishies gone" to continue the anime theme

I came out with some classic lines on the way back up the hill this evening:

"A little bit of pain never hurt anyone," and

"Don't misunderestimate me, just because I'm blonde."
