Shirt.Woot

For this shirt to work you need to go atleast 88 mph!!!

i cant wait for the hollywood exec's to get wind of this and make the best movie of 2011:

"Back From, and Then Subsequently to, All of which is Shortly Followed by Going Towards THE FUTURE!

i dont get the two symbols that surround the lightning bolt and the one right before the pyramid...

ha! fun...

Now everyone's going to want a time machine that matches

So that's where I left my flux capacitor! Could someone go back and get it for me?

So, top row, I see Delorean, then Doc with Marty on his skateboard. Radiation sign with water above it. The hash marks have 8 on top, 8 on bottom, which matches with the 88 mph needed? Fluxcapacitor and then the heiroglyphs for the letter Y?

I personally like to rock the color of cream in my attire when confronting potentially life-threatening situations. As a neutral color, it has been shown that the color of cream is not only soothing, but it also heightens serotonin (and therefore, dopamine, and therefore feelings of endearment).

Give me a sec, I'll grab a link (and no I am not a color expert, but merely a grad student that makes TONS of powerpoints that are subliminally controlling the audience's inner emotions).

My question is how long will this last in the reckoning. On one hand it is a pop culture reference known to be popular. On the other hand it is a tgentry shirt and the better his designs are the quicker they speed to reckoning....

If only the shirt color was stainless steel!

What else would you have wanted for this design, that integrates the cream really well?

I so want this shirt, but if I get another t-shirt I'll be looking into upwards of 50 shirts in my closet.


This shirt is serious win on all levels, both for tgentry on design and woot for the write up and shirt condition. I wish

Sorry, but he says "Lorraine... my density has popped me to you" and "I'm your density"

I've seen BTTF 1&2 at least 50 times each.

Close, but the actual line that George McFly says to Lorraine in a disastrously-hilarious come-on attempt is "My density has popped me to you."

Pure genius. This should be turned into a new movie in the series. That would be awesome.

They could even have a scene where they run into Ash from Evil Dead. But I digress...

It's gotta be an electrified gate. The second one even has a wire, and the other glyph represents a storm cloud over the pyramid.

According to Tgentry in the derby comments for his shirt, this shirt is actually telling a different tale from Doc and Marty's time-travelling adventures, and not one that was ever shown in a movie (or the short-lived animated series, I would assume). Here's the story as we were told and have pieced together from semi-factual Egyptian glyphs:

The Delorean arrives in ancient Egypt (glyph #1) with Doc and Marty (glyph #2) in tow. There is no plutonium available (glyph #3), which is needed to get the DeLorean back up to 88 MPH (glyph #4) and send them "back...to THE FUTURE!" The flux capacitor is dark (glyphs #5 and 6) but needs 1.21 jigowatts, the exact power output of a bolt of lightning (glyph #7), to make it work again (glyph #8). They move the DeLorean (glyph #9) to the top of the pyramid and use the velocity of gravity to accelerate the car to 88 MPH (glyph #10), where it is struck by lightning at the base of the pyramid (glyph #11) and disappears, leaving twin trails of fire behind (glyph #12).

Hope this helps!

ah, tgentry, this is an instant classic! give me a pepsi free... >=b

Hmm...maybe I should wear this shirt while riding my bike then.

You want a Pepsi, pal, you're gonna pay for it! :P

Congrats tgentry! I'm in for 1

Much like driving 88 mph straight into a movie theater is an equally viable option...

oops! so late to say it, but congrats, Travis! This was excellently done and worth the 1st place win.

Tab, I can't give you a tab unless you order something.

Congrats sir!

Monroe,WA I grew up in Monroe, off Old Owen Rd. Must buy this shirt now.

I just wish the shirt were self drying.

so what ever happened to george mcfly?
oh, this.

where is max headroom in this tshirt?

Too bad I'm broke. I wish I could buy this shirt. Very cleverly done.

acschaab you have it down pact! that is classic! its like I'm reading the Rosette stone left behind by Marty and Doc!

I'm almost 100% sure I've seen that design before.
Was it (or something very similar to it) on here before?

there's goes the flux capacitor and the hoverboard.

Great Scott!

Got a sale outta me. =)

I love the part about driving down the pyramid. How else can you get up to 88 mph in ancient Egypt?

100 slave power?

p.s. how often do you get pulled over :D

Ok lets see that is not even one a week, plus you have to calculate all the "oh no's" that you will spill on the shirts. So better buy three, wait forget that you need at least 88 shirts. Only 38 more to go, (figuring that you will now buy this shirt).

In for one, making it my fourth tgentry shirt, and the third that's a derby blue ribbon winner. Thanks!

Love it. Happy to see it got first. Makes my 4th shirt.woot purchase. Seriously, baffled by the people who claim to "not get it". Seriously guys. Seriously?!

Well that explains a lot about history.

Yes, I like it, but I'm not sure about the color. I'll try one but if I show up in a DeLorean and warn myself against it then I'm afraid you loose a sale woot.

Well, the DeLorean wouldn't gain any speed after it hit the ground, so it'd have to reach 88 MPH during its decent down the pyramid, thus disappearing and leaving the flaming tracks at the base of the pyramid.

I'd think the real problem would be the fact that the pyramids didn't actually have smooth slopes. It'd be a really bumpy ride, making it difficult to achieve the required speed.

For that matter, how did Marty and Doc fly the DeLorean all the way over to Egypt in the first place? That's quite a long way from Hill Valley...

Sadly, as it stands, I can go over a month without washing any shirts and still pull out a fresh one.
