Political

vomitt romney t-shirt

I don’t know how to feel about Mitt Romney, he looks like he should be President, which means people will probably vote for him, and yet everything he says and does makes me feel as if his Presidency would be a complete catastrophe and I’m amazed that he has the balls to call Obama privileged and elitist.

Altru Apparel make some really nice shirts, the sample I have is one of my most worn tees because the tee and the print are just gorgeous. It’s one of those perfect prints that you can barely tell is there even though it’s pretty big. It’s good for me to know that Altru make good shirts, because I know I can rest easy when it comes to recommending them, the whole judgement comes down to whether you like the design and there’s no worry that the tee will look terrible after a couple of washes.

When they let me know that they had some political tees I wasn’t sure if I was going to be happy with what I saw, shirts with a political message tend to be polarising, and that’s usually their aim, but taking the retro angle as they have done here makes for a rather less controversial subject and some pretty neat tees.

threadless election t-shirts

I have been standing on the sidelines in this years election season, as a Brit you could say that is fair enough, I have no business meddling in the affairs of American politics, and I have to respect your process. Be that as it may, I can no longer hold my tongue regarding such an important issue, on what could be a pivotal day in US history, Super Tees Day.

Now, I know all the kids are into robots, zombies, vampires, and ninjas; yes, they are all truly awesome in their own unqiue ways, but there is of course a dark side to each and every one of those candidates.

636x460shirt girls 01vampires 480x347 Super Tees Day arrives at Threadless, Im voting Panda!
Vampires may have strong and well thought out policies on blood donation, but they have lost their way in recent years, becoming soft, sparkly, not holding true to their beliefs, and becoming strangely besotted with Kristen Stewart. Can you really trust someone with that kind of record as a flip flopper?

636x460shirt guys 01zombies 480x347 Super Tees Day arrives at Threadless, Im voting Panda!
Zombies aren’t much better, they only want one thing and that is to tear this country and your flesh apart, and we must halt this slow march to the White House before it has a chance to gather momentum.

636x460shirt girls 01robots 480x347 Super Tees Day arrives at Threadless, Im voting Panda!
Robots? You think that just because we created them they will do our bidding? Ask any parent and they will tell you that this is just not the case at all, and if it doesn’t work with teenagers why would it work with machines? Anyway, isn’t the real issue here who is behind the robots? Whose pulling the strings? Is it the vampires? I’m not saying it is but don’t you think it’s funny that no one else is asking these questions, no one is saying they aren’t true, no one has come out to say that the vampires have formed a coalition with robots and are manipulating them behind the scenes to overthrow the status quo in this country and fundamentally change the way that we go about our daily lives? But hey, I’m just one man, no need to listen to the crazy man connecting all these little things and seeing the bigger picture.

636x460shirt guys 01ninjas 480x347 Super Tees Day arrives at Threadless, Im voting Panda!
Let’s take a closer look at the ninjas… actually they’re pretty cool, they wear black and throw pointy stars at people. Still, I wouldn’t really want to be governed by someone that would kill me in my sleep, and I doubt you would either.

So where does this leave us? Trying to pick between the best of a bad situation? No. There’s a better choice and a better way for us all, someone that can lead this nation towards the light and make us great again.

636x460design 01 480x347 Super Tees Day arrives at Threadless, Im voting Panda!
Pandas. Pandas with milk mustaches. Pandas casually doing pull ups on a tree branch because that body doesn’t just take care of itself. Pandas sneezing and scaring their parents. Pandas doing yoga. There is literally nothing that a panda does that isn’t adorable, cute, hilarious, or inspiring.

636x460shirt guys 01 480x347 Super Tees Day arrives at Threadless, Im voting Panda!
Pandas have a strong defense policy that will protect our borders, allow them to roam free and they are peaceful animals, but pen them in, prod them with a stick or invade their space and they will defend themselves, their family, and their country. Some say that the highly intelligent panda is elitist, accusing him of preferring arugula to the traditional bamboo, come on, just because a bear is educated and likes a peppery salad leaf does not make him elitist, it makes him an individual, and the right choice in this election, so go to the polls and vote panda.
636x460shirt girls 01 480x347 Super Tees Day arrives at Threadless, Im voting Panda!

Threadless are running a these special tees over the next month to try and make the long hard run to the polls in the US election a bit more fun, and I’m delighted that they asked HYA to be involved. I’ll be coming up with silly posts over the next few weeks, if you can give me any reasons why pandas are awesome and everything else sucks please do let me know in the comments.

8 bit presidents t-shirt

You’re not going to be able to wear this shirt on President’s day this year, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t pick it up in time for next years celebrations. I suppose that in theory you could wear it at other times of the year, and possibly even if you’re not American, but only if you can handle the stares and judging looks of people seeing you wearing a shirt with US Presidents on it on a day that isn’t the 3rd Monday in February.

Pick up this shirt for $23 at Chop Shop.

zapatista t-shirt

Mao Tse-Tung, Fidel Castro, the Paris Riots, and Zapatista, seems about right for a range of political shirts. I like the style of this range, it’s awfully wearable.

They’re all £14.99 at Magik City now.

“Ask Not” a political tee from Wear Liberally

Thumbnail image for “Ask Not” a political tee from Wear Liberally

This shirt of course references JFKs “ask not what your country can do…” speech. I don’t want to get into the politics of it and think about how the idea JFK implanted in the American public subconscious might be applied to the state of the country today, but I can certainly appreciate that it is [...]

“Obama Got Osama” T-shirt, who buys this stuff?

Thumbnail image for “Obama Got Osama” T-shirt, who buys this stuff?

I feel the need to preface this post by saying that I’m British, and whilst the 7/7 bombings clearly had an effect upon Britain, it was a lot smaller than the 9/11 attacks, in terms of death, destruction, and the effect upon the national pysche, so it’s possible that I’m just missing the point, but… [...]

“Illegal Immigration Started in 1492″ t-shirt by Ban T-shirts

I’ve always found it funny (in a “you’re an idiot” kind of way) that there are so many people in the US that are very proud of their ancestry being from Ireland or Scotland (though they’re rarely shouting about being English), yet they’re vehemently opposed to allowing immigrants into the country, and will happily spend [...]

When I first saw this t-shirt, I wasn’t thinking about WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange (though admittedly this is a timely blog post given the latest updates in his possible extradition to Sweden today), I was thinking about the people all over the Middle East that are rising up and making their voices heard in countries [...]

Apparently, if you wear the shirt above when going through one of those machines that shows off your junk at American airports, then the message you can see on the shirt will also show up on the image that the person making sure you aren’t carrying anything dodgy can see. I must admit, I don’t [...]

Do you still wear Obama shirts?

Thumbnail image for Do you still wear Obama shirts?

I pulled the above shirt (from Ban T-Shirts) from one of the many stacks of tees in my bedroom, and whilst this one is fairly subtle as far as Obama shirts go, it did get me thinking, do people still buy and wear Obama shirts? As ever, I’ll make the usual disclaimer that a t-shirt [...]

Let’s be honest, I have no right commenting on whether cannabis should be legalized in California, hell, I’ve been to Amsterdam twice and never partaken of a spliff or a brownie (though given the choice, baked goods would always win for me), but it seems to me that if it was legalized then it would [...]
