I don't get what the D and the . are. Someone explain?

I can only read this as "Pi-erd".

I really like this shirt, except the true nerd in me says that "Pi" is the Greed "P".

Love it! In for one.

Folded glasses

horn-rimmed "nerd" glasses (one half of such), and a 20-sided die.

For years, the bizarre design of the N64 controller puzzled me (who has three arms???)...but it all makes sense now! It was part of a code left for the true nerds to decipher.

This shirt makes me excited like a positive ion!!

Half of some nerdy glasses and a 20 sided die.

the "." is a 12 sided die for DnD, dont know what the D is supposed to be either.

edit: doh! 20 sided

Took me a while just because I was trying to start with Pi. Also thinking about what the N64 controller may have been called.


I THINK the D is a glasses lens? maybe?

That Nintendo 64 controller isn't officially licensed!

This shirt is factually inaccurate!

*nerd*

I read "HERO" when I first saw this. Thumbs down.

Lowercase lambda would have made a better "n" and eigenvalues are a hell of a lot more nerdy than pi.

D is a pair of broken glasses (one lens and half the frame)

the period is a 20 sided die.

Terd?

When I saw it I thought it said "hero".

N = Pi

E = N64 Controller

R = Protractor

D = Glasses

. = ? My guess is a Decoder ring, or a D20

now I'm reading it as Pi-Hero, which would be a great video game if it were like, Pie Hero, and it would combine the fun of Cooking Mama with the awesome of Guitar Hero. and in the end you'd eat pie.

I would have bought this shirt, except I am currently boycotting asphalt colored shirts. I have enough of them. Give me a red, or even a navy.

No, no, no! Nobody wants to be labeled a "nerd". "Geek" is where it's at!

Same. I think this would just confuse a lot of people and require more explanation than a shirt is worth.

People always complain about too many video game references and cute, fuzzy critters, but no one thinks you can have too much Pi?

I call shenanigans, the N64's controller was never available in the wireless variety!

I think geeks just get clumped in with nerds nowadays. To tell the truth I'll take nerd anyday.

I actually quite disagree that the N64 is considered even remotely a nerd item, as video gaming goes -- casual gamers prefer and own Nintendo consoles far more than the hardcore "nerd" gamers. If it was a true nerd controller device, it possibly should be something a tad less owned like, I don't know, like a Neo Geo or Saturn controller, but neither of these would create the "E" they required so blah.

Ahh! I seent da d and thought that's lam3 to use for the d. Then I thought perfect nerd shirt with cancellation stuff on it injoy!

Anyone who wears this shirt will instantly be elevated to π-mp status!

Though, trying to explain it would in fact make you appear pretty nerdy

I second! I was wondering what "geek" would look like spelled out like this...

brendan948725 wrote:I read "HERO" when I first saw this. Thumbs down.

I saw the same thing. But if nerds are heroes to you, I guess it doens't matter, sort of.

Specifically, they seem to be the exact model of glasses worn by Lewis Skolnick in Revenge of the Nerds. Notice the oval design on the horn.

Herp, Terp, Terd (Turd?), Hero, Pi-ero (Pyro?)
The D20 is small enough to detract from the overall design and serves no real purpose.
What's that arc coming from the top of the protractor anyway? If someone's already been using it to draw, they should have drawn "NE" and "D" and made it clearer.
In for three!

definitely a D20.

But the glasses kinda look like a P instead of a D... I kept reading "NERP."

Dude, I think everyone owned a nintendo 64. Maybe it's true nowdays that more casual gamers tend to own nintendo consoles, but I don't believe that was quite the case with n64.
