Shirt.Woot

Oh yeah and AWESOME shirt patrickspens. I have no idea how you do it, but you're amazing.

OK...I'm using the shirt.woot to vent just as the others have. When I beat the first level, it came up with the buy page, but then when I hit the big gold button it said it was sold out. I got up at 12:55 EST so that I could come down here and play Woot's April Fool's Day game. I have two kids to deal with in the morning bright and early. I can't believe I got less than an hour of sleep before coming downstairs to do this, only to get through level 5 (over and over and over) and not get a Bucket of Crayons. I know it's not Woot's fault I live on the East coast and can't still be up when they change items, but seriously? It's now 2:38 and I honestly feel like I could boycott Woot for the next 6 months. I've waited a YEAR for some fun like I had last year (although I didn't get a bag then either) but at least it was FUN. This just bites a big one. Booo!

I feel your pain! I've been trying to get a Big o' Cosmos since 1 am. Almost 2 hours later and after getting to level 6 (level 2, version 2), nothing. So frustrating!! We, the Hitchhikers?? I've tried playing again, but when I die, it just tells me to play again. This is ri-freaking-diculous.

Seriously Woot. This Big o' Cosmos hunt is bad form.

April Fool's jokes are funny little things that end in 15 minutes. This, instead, is a monumental waste of time and sleep.

Jeez. I give up. I have to be up in less than 4 hours.

Thanks for nothing, woot! Not happy. Not happy at all.

You know, I just watched an old documentary about Kowloon Walled Fortress... Just sayin'.

Alright, heck with this. Half the time I can't get the game to work, and the other half it freezes when I die. I've beaten level 3 several times now, and have had no opportunity to order. This is just really bad form, Woot. The joke really is on us, I guess, as there is no Bandolier of Carrots.

I'm going to bed.

Beautiful design and an amazing use of empty space.

Congrats patrickspens

I would love to have a higher res copy of this for my desktop.
Whenever I look at this I just feel so melancholy, yet content/hopeful at the same time...

That's really lovely. The figures remind me of Harry & Luna, when she holds his hand in the OOTP movie.

I keep coming back to shirt.woot and looking at this, and each time, I get a little choked up.

The lovers, no more than two silhouettes, somehow overwhelm all the bleak ordinariness of their surroundings, and truly show that their love can conquer anything.

If a picture is worth a thousand words, a patrickspens design is worth a million.

This is a lovely piece of art. I really enjoy how I can tell there's an awesome story behind the couple just from looking at it. It's a very romantic picture. I'm feeling nostalgic now.

Grats to Patrickspens on a well-deserved win!

This really says it all. Even though I have matured a lot since high school (where I met my fiance), the feeling has never changed that no matter what, I had nothing to fear in this world with my love next to me. She takes the dark and drab in the world and makes it a beautiful place to be.

Patrickspens, your work is truly incredible, and I love owning your shirts.

Shirts like this make me wish there was a poster.woot! I can only wear T-Shirts on the weekends, but this would look great hanging in my cubicle.

Buying one with the intention of cutting it up and framing it.

When you think of a woodcut design the last thing that comes to mind is a subtle interplay of light and reflections like this. Very accomplised, very stylish.

Congrats Patrick.

It looks like The Doctor and Amy.

Did anybody else think of the end of Fight Club when they saw this shirt? I did!

It's a trap! Don't go towards the light!

Wear this shirt: If you’re on a mission to complete the “My wardrobe is entirely by patrickspens” set.

My closet is beginning to resemble this statement.

"Yeah, we’ll see what your best friend Jill thinks! I’M TEXTING HER RIGHT NOW YOU Jatravartid JERK!"

Thanks for getting this commercial lodged in my brain again, woot.

rufus sewell? jen connelly? guys - are we in dark city again? i told you to take a left!

I love this shirt!

By the way, has anyone seen this yet?:

It looks really awesome and I can't wait for it to come out! :D

Really badass, but I almost find myself wishing it was on a black background! Either way though, it's nice to see something classy with just a smidgen of depth.

Seriously... a smidgen.

Cool design - not sure it works for me on a t-shirt, but awesome image.

Maybe I'm just weird, but for some reason it kind of reminds me of Blade Runner.

<3 this design, and nothing against the return to humor (especially given today), but for some reason it felt a bit more serious to me.

If I may, this is what my brain came up with:

"You don't know what's out there." She reached out to take his hand, hoping, perhaps, that her touch alone would stop him from leaving.

"No one does, but that's why it's worth exploring. Don't you see? There could be a world out there beyond the water, a world that allows us to do more than just live in the darkness and scramble through up our ladders." He responded, taking a step forward, turning away from her - but not letting go.

"But the elders said that this is where we belong-" she protested weakly, though she too wanted to explore the world beyond, the world outside of their ramshackle dwellings and scrap houses built from the pieces that came down the waterfall into their cave.

"That's because they're afraid, because no one ever comes back. But just because you can't come back doesn't mean you shouldn't go. I want to find out what's out there, and bring that knowledge back. I want to make it so that we have room to run and play, change it so that we're not always living in the dampness, in the darkness, forever."

She realized that she could never keep him, that he was set on exploring the world beyond, no matter how dangerous it was. He wasn't satisfied with staying here and being with the others; he had questions, and would never settle for anything less than knowing the answers.

And all she could do is squeeze his hand. "I'll come back," he said, fondly, that same old lopsided smile on his face, though it was more than a little sad, now.

"No," she answered, taking a step forward and looking out the wall of water. "We'll come back."

Isn't that the point though?

So I was trying to figure out how they were going to work in a Shirt joke today. well played woot with the big pink shirt.

I was thinking more Sid and Nancy.

Shocker! Pacific Northwest Wooting their a$$es off on this one.

What a beautiful shirt. Purchased it the moment I saw it. Can't wait for it to arrive.

It's a really great shirt, especially with just two colors. But it doesn't really say "woodcuts" to me.
Like I said, it was done really well, but there were just others that I think better portrayed the theme.

Only thing that could make this shirt better is if the guy had one girl on each side of him with an arm around each.

Don't cut it up! Go to Michaels and get a t-shirt frame!

Well, there goes my free tee coupon for posting deals in February. I even opted for overnight ship! Thanks shirt.woot and Mr. Patrick Spens!

OH, WAIT: LOOKEE!!

Thank you for the link, I'm going to do this! I'm also going to totally ignore your snarkiness and mention that I had to remove the = from the end of the link in order for it to direct properly, in equally un-snarky tones.

I ordered this shirt and never received it. Boo....I am sad. I even emailed service and still nothing. There is a FedEx tracking number it only tells me that it was initiated on April 9th! Then nothing after that....it is now June..............

This shirt design is awesome! I'm so glad to see it again. It has that quiet beauty of a love story from afar.
