I can’t remember if this is a new or old design, but does that really matter? What matters is that its an eBoy tee and looks damn fine.

*Upon further investigation, the tee is pretty new as it was only released on July 8th.

If you’ve ever seen the TV show ‘The Big Bang Theory’ you may well have noticed that the characters, who we’re meant to believe are more interested in quantum theory than fashion, can be found wearing some pretty cool t-shirts. I guess that someone else noticed this and decided to hunt down where the tees can be bought online, and put together a site all about it. Some of the links aren’t exactly right, I doubt that CBS’s wardrobe department are buying their tees from Cafepress, but its still a pretty good resource.

Pictures For Sad Children, which appears to be one of those websites where a funny person draws something funny and then people look at it and go “hey, that’s funny, I should look at this every day,” have released several tees which are for sale through the TopatoCo merchandising empire.

Me, I think that this tee needs a slight change, music forums and youtube comments are where awful meet. I know that makes no sense since the people that frequent forums and comment on youtube videos are usually (self-described) as being very intelligent, rational people that rarely threaten violence upon anyone. They do, however, think that everyone else is equal to, or worse than Hitler.

If you don’t think that a t-shirt consisting of video game control pads (with the notable absence of the Playstation clan) is awesome then I think you need to take a long hard look at yourself. Seriously dude, you used to be cool.Costiness=€16 Link

This link is damn old, ancient in internet terms, but its new to me, so… its new!

Internet Duct Tape, whose posts are more accustomed to tech than tees, wrote a list back in December 2006 (soooo old!) of, you guessed it, 107 t-shirts for geeks that do not suck. Personally, I think a few of them do suck, but there’s still a few geeky gems in there that I think are still on sale after all this time.

There’s a lot of apparel out there for gamers, but most of it doesn’t cut the mustard for me, usually they’re built upon solid concepts, but they can be somewhat lacking in the design department. Fortunately, Split Reason don’t suffer from that particular problem. I guess that purists would probably have a bit of a whine about the Pacman and the ghost being too big to fit into the maze, but I’m sure that was just done for reasons of practicality.

I don’t really know how it happened, but all of a sudden I seem to be rather impressed by ThinkGeek, I know that the tees aren’t necessarily the cutting edge of fashion, but I like to see people trying something different, and there melding of t-shirts and technology is producing some really interesting results.

Now, strictly speaking, the game being played on the front of this t-shirt isn’t pong, it is a ‘retro table tennis’ game, I just happen to have misspelled ‘retro table tennis’ in my post title and can’t be bothered to change it to something less copyright infringing. For those wondering, the animated decal on the front can apparently be removed very easily (as can its battery pack) for when you need to wash the shirt after your sweaty late-night gaming sessions.

These tees are pretty much perfect for valentines, if I wasn’t desperately lonely (…sigh) I’d pick up a couple right now. ThinkGeek do have a penchant for putting tech into tees and making designs that raise a smile, and this is no exception. If the gif above doesn’t make it clear, as the two wearers get closer to each other the amount of hearts lit up on the tee increases, so if you’re quite far away nothing lights up, but if you’re within a couple of metres then they’ll all light up, because you’re with the one you love. I love it, I’m actually smiling as I write this because its so sweet.If you suffer from ‘Andy syndrome’ (devilishly good-looking yet inexplicably single) then you do have an option too, buying a separate transmitter pack ($11.99) that you can place anywhere, which means that you can get the same effect with just one of the tees. I’m sure you could do something incredibly romantic with technology like that, so, people with more balls me, go for it!

You will find no pie/pi references here, no matter how easy it would be for a pun-lover such as to be impaled upon the sword of lame writing (which, lets be frank, happens around here quite a lot), I shall resist!

The cool thing about this hoodie is that the pi symbol itself is actually made up of lots of tiny numbers, and apparently the numbers follow the sequence of pi, which in your head is a pretty logical thing to do if you were brainstorming pi related design ideas, but its still nice to see someone actually make it.

It’s a good thing that Jason started posting at Preshrunk again otherwise I wouldn’t have been able to contact him to be the latest person who reveals what it is that “hides their arms” (patent pending). Ever the modest fellow, it took him time to adjust to the fact that I wanted his opinion on clothing, but when it became clear that I hadn’t made a mistake I got the following gold nugget of information:

I’d love to be involved so long as you realize that you weren’t
trying to ask Josh Spear what’s covering his arms…

It might make you cry, but the lion’s share of my hoodies are plain black Dickies ones, sans the thermal lining and washed enough times in warm water to fade them down to more of an Asphalt color.

The only hoodie I own with anything other than pasta sauce or refried beans - I’m a messy eater sometimes - decorating it is the fantastic 1337 hoodie from Little Gamers. Well, I should say that I used to own it. You see, it’s such a sweet hoodie that I sort of loaned it out to my girlfriend and now she refuses to give it back.

*shrug* Oh well. It was nice while it lasted.

He also gave me a link to his original post where he gives a less sauce and girlfriend based review.
