Science Shirts

[blike]

The idea of selling some science-related shirts has been floating around here off and on for a long time now. I'd like to do this, but I don't have the creativity that some of you have.

 

What do you think would make good shirts? Personally, I like shirts that are clearly geeky, but in a retro-illustration style. Here's what I mean by "retro-illustration sytle."

 

 

I also like a bit of wit or sarcasm, or play on words, or anything really. I saw a shirt yesterday that said, "What's so hard about rocket science?". It had some cheesy 70s illustration that was quite humorous.

 

Anyhow, I know many of you are very creative . I don't know how many of you are good with images, but that would help too. So, if anyone has ideas, post them here puhlease.

1. "What are YOU lookin' at, two-eyes?!"

 

2. "I didn't get to be a starship captain by living in a fantasy world!"

 

3. "Skipped breakfast this morning--cereal port not responding."

 

4. "We can go as fast as you want, baby--just short of C!"

 

5. "Once you go geek, there's no need to seek!"

 

6. "Ask me about Neutrons--No charge!"

1.)"Dyslexics of the world untie."

 

2.)"Are you iliterate?"

[Cap'n Refsmmat]

They're SCIENCE shirts, sillyhead.

I thought he was looking for original ideas, not knocking off things other people have done.

[Pangloss]

Something original would be cool. Those are great, Phi.

Thanks! I'll bet T-shirt sellers are going crazy in your neck of the woods (when they find a dry patch to set up a stand)!

 

"So many hurricanes, so little Florida!"

 

"Beachfront property--now available in Florida City!"

 

"Screw Chicago! Punta Gorda is the Windy City!"

[Pangloss]

Hehe. It's funny how much email I've been getting with jokes and gags about the hurricane. The funniest was a modified path projection that had been skewed to look like someone was giving Florida the finger.

[Phi for All]

Hope you're OK down there and glad to see you haven't lost your sense of humidity.

 

OK, just two more:

 

"Got shelter?"

 

"Florida: No one left to vote!"

[Pangloss]

Hehe!

[Gilded]

"If you lose an electron, be positive about it!"

"Hey baby, wanna share an electron or two?"

"I'm a heavy metal fan. My favourite is thallium."

"In a parallel universe, I'm kicking your ass right now!"

"Ionizing radiation can cause mutations? I have to inform my third testicle about this!"

"Guns don't kill people. Kinetic energy kills people."

You mean like this?

[Phi for All]

LOL! Great ones, Gilded!

 

"YES, I'm a geek. NO, that's not a slide rule in my pocket!"

[Gilded]

Heh, thanks Phi.

 

"Is that a nuclear reactor cooling rod in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?"

"Chemistry is no laughing matter - unless you're making nitrous oxide."

"I like apple3.14159265358979323846..."

"Aliens are rude - they didn't even buy me flowers or chocolate before the probing!"

"Your eyes are like the Sun and Sirius - not so bright, but as distant from each other."

"I could go for some H2O + nC2H5OH right now..."

"Your momma is so fat, that astronomers thought they've found a new planet!"

[MolecularMan14]

I gotta say that my favorite so far would be in post #2, which is #5 in the list.

[MolecularMan14]

Our idea for our Debate Jackets was - We Bust Ours To Kick Yours!

, I thought it was funny, but I dont think it could work for a non-competitive science design. lol

[Phi for All]

Thanks for reminding me, MM14. I thought of this one today:

 

"More Neurons, Less Morons!"

[Rakdos]

2. "The faster you go, the shorter you are" - Einstein

4. A phaser on stun is like a day without orange juice.
   
5. A seminar on Time Travel will be held two weeks ago.
   
6. Best way to dispose of the Borg: Give them Windows 3.1.
   
7. Do radioactive cats have 18 half-lives
   
8. Windows is *NOT* a virus. Viruses *DO* something!
   
9. Go play with your GUI
   
10. Two most common elements: hydrogen, stupidity.
    
11. The Borg assimilated me & all I got was this stupid T-Shirt!
    
12. Supernovae are a Blast
    

[Gilded]

Time travel-related shirts are fun

 

"Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go and discover time travel yesterday"

"My Geiger-counter is registering ultra-high ratings! It's on Moron-frequency!"

"Don't have a cow! They have foot and mouth disease anyway."

"I hope that in a parallel universe IT'S NOT F*CKING MONDAY AGAIN!"

"I have all the elements to become a porn star! Carbon, potassium, oxygen..."

"WWED - What Would Einstein Do?"

"Nuclear warfare is wrong. Think of the helpless plutonium atoms!"

"I'm so cool that I'm starting to get superconductive."

[swansont]

"The faster you go' date=' the shorter you are" - Einstein[/size']

 

Skinnier

"I'm so cool that I'm starting to get superconductive."

This is my favorite so far! If I may, you could shorten it for T-shirts to, "So cool I'm superconductive!"

[Gilded]

Yes, I don't own any copyrights to those. Feel free to shorten them if you like to.

 

"I was in the Chernobyl area and all I got was this stupid shirt - and a two pound cancer tumor."

"Warning! Eating nerve toxins is not for everyone. Consult your doctor before doing so."

"Thallium - something you want to eat in powder form after watching Martha Stewart."

"The faster you go' date=' the shorter you are" - Einstein[/quote']

Skinnier

We could blend the two and make it our own, as in, "Getting skinnier as I approach the speed of light!"

maybe you could put all of them on one T-shirt
