Blank T-shirts are boring!
And Americans hate being bored. Americans also hate being told what to do. Or what they can't wear. That's why I when I got bored I enjoyed designing the PINO-CHE "T", which looked like this: But imagine how lifeless and colorless life would be if no one allowed us to display designs on T shirts that might cause someone to get offended. All you'd be able to buy would be T-shirts that looked like this: Not much to look at, is it? In fact, it's so boring that it's almost inviting a design of some sort, although I'm just not feeling particularly creative right now. Just the act of moving a simple image onto that blank T-shirt* seems like such a strain. Maybe later in the week I'll feel more inspired. . . Nah, why bother? Anything I can think of, someone else will have probably thought the same thing. (Even as I say this, I'm thinking they already have.) Sigh. Original ideas are harder and harder to come by these days.
UPDATE (02/10/06): The blank has been filled! It didn't take long for someone else to show a little imagination: (PRWEB) February 8, 2006 -- To see the latest creation from conservative t-shirt maker MetroSpy some would think the Muslim world had every right to be upset. MetroSpy's new t-shirts depict an unflattering caricature of the prophet Mohammed with a bomb on his head.At the rate things are going, it'll probably turn out that they've been selling them in Egypt for months. posted by Eric on 02.07.06 at 08:41 PM |
