Our mothers kept telling us how we shouldn’t be rude to people. Don’t swear. Don’t respond to insults. Try to work things out. And what do they get? Frequent mentions during said arguments, which we don’t avoid despite their warnings…
But you can choose not to stoop that low. After all, what does someone’s mother have to do with their character? Indeed they are an influence, but not always; we all had that rude friend with the nicest parents ever.
The Your mom is a nice lady t-shirt is sneaky and misleading, which makes it awesome. You’re bound to offend someone, then you can enjoy their embarassment as they notice the small text. How could you believe I’d wear a “Yo momma” t-shirt?
Despair.com is one of my favorite websites and when I see a new t-shirt there I am excited. Even more so when I see how cool it is.
The Points of View t-shirt tackles an age-old problem: is the glass half full or half empty? If you thought there’s only 2 answers, you’re wrong. Optimists and pessimists represent just a part of the spectrum of human points of view. But they’re all here now: realist, idealist, capitalist, communist, conspiracist, sexist, nihilist and opportunist, each with their own witty opinion.
(My favorite is the latter: “There’s a funny t-shirt in here somewhere.” Ring any bells?)
If you were looking for an answer, this can only make you more confused. But the t-shirt is too cool to think about insignificant things like the meaning of life.
Ah, noobs… They’re everywhere, but most of them seem to make their presence felt on the internet. Some of the older inhabitants on the virtual world feel that lack of knowledge is not an excuse for impolite and incoherent typing, so they sometimes tend to abuse said noobs.
If you feel that the poor darlings are wronged, wear the Noobs Are People Too t-shirt. But before you go on your quest to defend noobs, remember: some of them deserve it. Yes, all forums and games have their know-it-alls who act like everyone else is a retard, but most often than not the “poor victims” are just too lazy to do a Google search and expect everything to be explained to them, then get pissed off when they are suggested to do some actual thinking.
Noobs are people too. And many people are annoying stupid gits.
It just might be the perfect piece of clothing for antisocial days. People can’t read minds to tell when you hate the world, so… might as well give them a hand. One problem, though: funny t-shirts attract attention. You wouldn’t want girls to start chatting you up on a bad day.
Save it for co-workers instead: angry t-shirt + your growls will send the right message.
What’s the ratio of men who know how to tie a knot on a tie to men who need to wear ties? We can safely say it’s fairly low.
Judging by that, the HowTie Instructional Necktie should be a hit. It’s a tie printed with images detailing how to tie it, so every time you look in the mirror you can – potentially – get closer to that day when the knot will just come naturally.
Rest assured that every time you wear this all the guys in the office will be your friends… Shared pain is a big social catalyst and no man can escape the plague of formal attire forever.
I don’t like Crocs. I think they’re just glorified beach shoes. But they are a good choice when it comes to kids – comfy and easy to slip on/off, and who cares about fashion for a 5-year old?
And if the said kid is a fan of the Dark Knight, this pair of Crocs Toddler/Little Kid Batman Sandal can be the perfect way out for a parent. None of us liked getting useful things like shirts or pants as presents, but a pair of shoes featuring one of the best comic characters just might do the trick.
Beside the bat symbols, the Crocs have “Batman” written on the instep strap and even the Batmobile on the sole. Couple them with an appropriate Bat costume and you get a very happy kid who’ll be the envy of all his little friends.
In this day and age, we all need to know how to work a computer, how to use the internet and how to tell apart head wounds. Wait… what?
All right, we don’t need to. But the Medieval Head Wounds t-shirt is so fun every one of your friends is bound to become an expert just by staring at it. The poor little example guy gets his head chopped to pieces or blown off with a variety of deadly weapons: mace, trebuchet, cannon, great sword, axe and crossbow. Not very pleasant, we can assume.
But he sacrificed himself in the name of science. If you ever accidentally travel through time and need to identify a corpse’s cause of death, you will wow everyone with your extensive knowledge.
Clothes do not make the man (or woman), but in certain circumstances exterior appearance is vital. If you’re the center of attention at an event, being well-groomed becomes a matter of impressing people, but also of gaining confidence.
One of the most annoying things that can happen to a black suit or dress is lint. And we all know how difficult it is to get off… Lint rollers are a perfectly good solution, but they’re bulky and can’t fit in a tiny purse, so they can’t be carried around all the time.
Fortunately for us, someone invented the Lint-On-The-Go Sheets. Each pack has 20 sheets, small and convenient to keep handy; all you need to do is put a hand under the clear cover and pat the lint (or pet hair, or dandruff) away. $12 is totally worth it for something that can save you from embarassement so easily.
The Snuggie is a blanket with sleeves. What the hell is that, you ask? Oh, only something anyone who’s ever been cold will appreciate.
It goes like this: for whatever reason, you’re in a place with insufficient heating. You want to read a book, or drink a cup of tea, or use a computer, while also keeping warm. A blanket will help, of course… until you move and it falls off your shoulders. Or you poke your arms out and get cold again. The Snuggie solves all this by cunningly attaching two sleeves to a regular fleece blanket, so you can now be warm and use your hands at the same time. it actually looks a lot like a very loose robe, which makes it very comfortable to actually wear around the house.
As far as I can see, there’s only one reason not to get one: it looks kind of silly. However, most people will want to use it in their own homes, and who cares about fashion when snuggling with a book in bed?
The video below shows it in action. As much “in action” a blanket/robe can be, at least.
It’s cold. Very cold. Going from 95 to 60 degrees isn’t fun, and this is telling us winter is coming. Depending on the area you’re in, this will mean anything from slightly lower temperatures to massive snowstorms.
For the tech lovers, this also means something else: the end of touch screens. They won’t explode in a puff of smoke, no, but if you want to keep your hands warm you’ll need gloves, which don’t play well with your iPhone. Enter the Dots Gloves.
True to the name, they have small round metal dots on the fingers for better contact with the gadgets. You can choose between 3 models: dots on thumb, index and middle finger, index only or thumb only. Of course, the use is not restricted to touch screens… there’s many other activities that need more precision than a pair of gloves can offer.
