I’ve still got a NES stowed away somewhere underneath our staircase, and when I pulled it out a couple of years ago it actually worked. Can you imagine any game console made now still working twenty years from now? Hell, my Xbox 360 had to be replaced after seven months!
This tee represents more pun-based-fun from the KosherHam gang. Actually, is it a pun? I guess that if you were to just turn up somewhere where you were actually going to play games then it would actually just be a t-shirt with a fact on it. I like it though, its a little bit nerdy, but not too much, everyone from my generation would be able to recognise the controller (even though its lacking in certain copyright infringing details), and its a bit retro, but its not really ramming it down your throat. I think the fact that the sample I received is a girls sized tee probably makes me like it a bit more too, since I’m kinda into geek girls, come to think of it, I’m into pretty much any kind of girl… hurray for equality!
Just like with previous KosherHam reviews, I’m happy to give this tee the thumbs up in terms of quality as well. The printing is sharp, bold, and completely lacking in imperfections, it doesn’t get much better than that when it comes to solid colour printing like this. The stock tee is once again courtesy of American Apparel, so I guess you’ll know what you’re in for in terms of fit, even if AAs sizing does seem to differ a little a bit from piece-to-piece.Costiness=$19.95 Tee Link

I’m sure this is one of those instances when I’m going to get accused of being a t-shirt snob (I write about tees, of course I’m a snob!). I wouldn’t actually wear this tee from KosherHam, and not just because its way too small for me, I’m just not too into tees with this kind of phrase on it, but I know there’s a big massive market for this kind of thing, so I can’t just ignore them.

I’ve noticed that a couple of my friends parents are on Facebook, what’s all that about? It might seem odd to me because my parents can barely use e-mail (I’m requested to read all of them before sending to make sure they’re ‘right’), but there’s just something a little bit weird about the idea of middle-aged people posting on each other’s walls and tagging each other in photo’s, and I don’t even want to think about what would happen if they found out about some of the dumbass applications that are floating around out there. I guess that on a certain level, I do find a tee like this kinda funny, but I think that the part that’s funny is that someone would have the audacity to wear a t-shirt suggesting that the wearer would “poke your mom” and not just on Facebook. I guess it takes a very, very special kind of person to pull off wearing a tee like this, and I don’t think I’m that special yet.

Usually, when you see a tee with a joke like this on, you aren’t really expecting much in terms of quality. Facebook are the current over-valued flavour of the month in the web-world, and you’d expect this to be an equally flavour of the month style t-shirt. But its not, the quality level is impressive, its printed on an American Apparel blank t-shirt, and the printing quality feels top notch. Oh, and of course, KosherHam have their own page on Facebook.

I don’t want to force my politics on anyone, but when I found out that John McCain pandered to voters by saying he condemned any remarks that were “anti-anything” I lost rather a lot of respect for him, so I got off the fence went for Obama, which is lucky for me, because there are loads more Obama tees out there than McCain ones. Although McCain’s supporters probably don’t do t-shirts, they probably knit wool sweaters for him (I’m saying he’s old, that seems to get laughs).

I can’t work out where “Barack’n the free world” was first used… by which I of course mean I googled it and didn’t immediately find it, then got bored and ate some strawberries (’tis the season!). I guess it doesn’t really matter where the phrase came from (a Neil Young song, btw), if you wear it people know who is going to be getting your vote in November, and it doing that in a good looking way is just the cherry on top of the political sundae.

Quality is impressive. The stock tee is American Apparel, which most of you guys will have an experience of, I can’t tell you what this particular one feels like because whilst I have lost a few pounds (okay, about 50) over the past 18 months, I can’t quite squeeze myself into a girls small tee yet… or presumably ever. The print is really soft, its so soft I actually had to double check that it wasn’t flock print, so I think its fair to say that KosherHam have got printing down pretty well.
