Despite Adder's biting, poisonous remarks, I still enjoyed the bacon shirt...probably wouldn't have spent $10 on it, but it made me chuckle.

It's painfully amusing to see people making comments like "Oooh, see, it sold out! Your criticisms are worthless because ____ shirt was so popular! ____ shirt really was a great design, because it sold out!" No. Look at the social/cultural pabulum that is popular in America. Look at the way most people dress and eat. Something is popular when it has something simple that will appeal to the greatest number of people, usually the lowest common denominator. That is not a sign of quality--that is a sign of pandering. Because the two rarely go together.
"But my opinion is just as valid as yours. All our opinions are equal." No. People always confuse "equal" with "the same." There is a huge difference between the two, marked by knowledge, experience, exposure, and quality of discussion/argument/analysis.
... and that's what I think about this weekend's derby winners. The end.

Sigh. At midnight, the shirt will be available again, but for $15. It will remain available for purchase until it is reckoned. Here: http://shirt.woot.com/Friends.aspx?k=8179 Click that link after midnight, and all your buying-a-pirate-shirt dreams will come true.

The top twenty sellers stay available, then there's this thing called a "reckoning" where shirts that didn't do as well get bumped off the list and are gone forever. But those top twenty will be for sale as long as they're on the top twenty. New shirts haven't been on long enough to drop off, so they're listed in the "perfectly safe" category.
You can see what's available at the link below.

I beat you to it! Nya nya.
Also, people, if you want to know what shirts are available for purchase on woot at any given time, I recommend going to http://www.shirtwhat.com. Simple, easy links that all lead back to shirt.woot. It really helps with navigating this site.

You can try, but it certainly doesn't seem like your posting speed is up to it. Why not take a nap, instead?

Whippersnapper, that's what you are. You're a whippersnapper.
STAY COOL?!! 80 is perfect! It's at what I keep my home temp in summer, with 75 in winter.
Okay, you win. My jealousy over your glorious weather has overcome me. I am seething green and unable to riposte.
Envious whippersnapper I shall be.
