A place to list t-shirt slogans or whatever.

Here's one by a friend of mine:

My favorite of the day:

"I'll vote Republican
When George W. Bush wins
The Nobel Peace Prize."

I'm sort of fond of : Puppies. They're what's for dinner

Though I wouldn't wear it.

And : Danger! Do NOt Look Into Laser With Remaining Eye

Seems like it'd be fun.

I think it's a morbid joke:

Don't draw the attention of a slasher because right now, you are attractive and look good with other men.

Draw the attention of a slasher and you won't be attractive, nor will you look good with other men.

-Trevor

Edit: Wow, was I glad to be proven wrong.
Edit 2: Oh my god, "Harry Potter" erotic fanfiction? Quick, someone shoot me now.

Here's the one CT liked when she saw it on me Sunday:

I bet you'll VOTE this time HIPPIE (really should be seen to be appreciated)

Also...

SHORT PEOPLE - Last to get rained on. First to drown.

And of course...

NOT DEAD YET - The Resistance

I think they call the woman/woman fanfic "femmeslash". In my LotR webcrawling, I've stumbled on some mention of Arwen/Eowyn slashing, which I thought was bizarre in a real "Did you guys even read the same the book I did?" sort of way. Bizarre.

Actually, It's sort of bizarre that THAT would seem bizarre to me, since I've seen characters like Mulder/Krychek slashed and never batted an eye.

(D'oy! CT's link went into that already)

Just about any popular character is gonna get "slashed" in this context.

I'm just amused it was female writers pairing Kirk/Spock. (squick)

Although I have to admit, I still find the "Very Secret Diaries" to be some of the funniest fanfic out there to date.

How about :

"Learn to Read! Ask me how."

Lisa has one on her site that says "Your logic does not resemble our Earth Logic."

I think a good Hatrack variant would be "Your Irony Does Not Resemble Our Earth Irony." [Big Grin]

I happen to love this one:

Also, this:

http://www.thinkgeek.com/tshirts/coder/6a20/

I really wouldn't wear the latter out in public, for obvious reasons, but I still think it's pretty clever. [Smile]

Yeah, the Kirk/Spock thing squicks me too. [Eek!] But I feel that way about almost anything Trek-related anymore. [Razz]

I like "Meddle not in the affairs of Ogres, for you are crunchy and taste like chicken" from my Everquest days.

Which is also the origin of the Slasher one, I'm sure.

Thinkgeek rocks for shirts. I want this one.

I also like the "Ph34r t3h Cute Ones" shirt at Megatokyo. I'd link to it, but they are moving their store right now.

I inherited a shirt from my bro-in-law that says, "I ran out of sick days so I called in dead." It is pretty beat-up, but makes a great exercise shirt. Seeing as I am a stay-at-home-mom, I wonder what sort of a message I am sending when I wear it?

Probably a better message than:

"Don't laugh; I thought the same thing until I had kids."

I like the one I had saying "Intelligent food for intelligent people" and showing a whale in a hamburger. Alas, it got worn out to the point of unwearability.

I used to have a shirt with the slogan "This is your brain", and showed a brain. Then it said "and THIS IS MINE!!!" with a brain about 4x as big. I always wore that shirt when I had tests at school.

My favorite was an American Red Cross tshirt:

Starve a Mosquito. Donate Blood.

I have a Swiss flag t-shirt that people always mistake for the Red Cross. Dude, in the Red Cross logo, the cross is red.

"Help, I've kidnapped myself! Give me $1,000,000 or you'll never see me again!"

"One by one the penguins are causing me to lose my sanity."

"Your village called, their idiot is missing."

And recently a friend of mine wore a t-shirt with the blue screen of death on it.

[Smile]
