Some of the more eagle-eyed readers may have noticed that I’ve started adding Digg buttons to my larger posts such as the list of T-shirt blogs and the list of 50 robot tees. I’m not putting them on everything, just the ones that take a few hours of effort, and if you think my work deserves a bit of reward, please click them when you see them.

Anyway, someone that I presume to be rather a clever fellow has made a t-shirt that has it’s own digg button built into it, and whilst it is a ‘working’ digg button, it doesn’t actually connect to digg via wi-fi, which I presume would be so awesome that it would sit atop digg’s front page for the rest of time. Still, bravo ‘thyzdik‘, bravo!

I’m not really a fan of tees and hoodies that try and force a message onto you. Sure, have your personal beliefs, but don’t shout them at me in t-shirt form. On the other hand, this hoodie from Divine Clothing has a fun/serious balance. I really like the idea that you could unintentionally brighten up a strangers day by wearing this. That you’d be walking along a street and someone that’s having a crappy day would walk past you, see your hoodie, smile and maybe things would pick up for them, nothing major, just a little happiness.

Lovin’ this design, it’d be cool if they included a piece of cardboard with the design printed on it so that you could make a cube Earth, maybe they do, who knows? (owners of the store, previous customers perhaps)

Who says the world is round? Don’t believe everything the men in white coats tell you… We found this diagram in the Blue Peter garden compost heap.

Usually, when I get sent a tee, I don’t expect to have to study chemistry to understand the joke. I kinda got it, but I thought I’d better take a better look to make sure I was on track (if you call Wikipedia ‘taking a better look at it’).

In the central nervous system, serotonin is believed to play an important role as a neurotransmitter, in the regulation of anger, aggression, body temperature, mood, sleep, vomiting, sexuality, and appetite.

So, according to this article, serotonin makes you hungry and horny, amongst other things. Those things also sound a lot like a description of parties at chez Andy!

There’s a pretty interesting style in this design. The way that the letters for ‘yay serotonin!’ are drawn twice kind of reminds me of being bored in chemistry class and going over and over what you’ve written because you wanted it to look like you were doing something when you were actually just daydreaming. Although why you’d write “yay serotonin!” in one of your schoolbooks is another matter althogether. And in that sense I think ClothMoth have really got the sentiment right on this design, its weird, you don’t really understand it, but at the same time you kinda like it.

As mentioned in my past two ClothMoth reviews, this tee is printed on a Fruit of the Loom ‘Best’ tee, and I’m impressed with it, but they are moving over to the industry standard of American Apparel soon, so be aware of that when you order since FotL are a bit more of a regular fit compared to the AA. The print quality is top notch as well, with the colours popping well with the brown of the tee.
