Shirt.Woot

Given his current position, I'd say he's going Adaginome. Slower would be Largnome, faster would be Allegnome.

Faster still would be Vivace.

I'm more of a SuburbaGnome, but I heartily approve of this shirt.

And yes, I know Gnomes. I contribute irregularly to www.GnomeStew.com, the ENnie award winning game mastering blog. (/brag)

As a music nerd, I had to... In for one!

Well I thought it hilariously punny, in for one. But I also have an odd fascination with gnomes and didn't go to sleep last night.

is this one of Gnomeo & Juliet's friends?

We always used an electronic one (I think it was on my band director's tuner) in band class. By high school marching band, electronic was way more practical since it had to be blasted on some speakers.

This reminds me of a "Get Fuzzy" series where Rob buys a metronome for his brother and Bucky and Satchel think he's wrapping a gnome. Hilarity ensues. I've tried to find a link the strips somewhere but my google-fu has failed me.

This shirt tells the world Ha He Ha He Ha He more than Ha Ha Ha He He He

NO! That's Fred!

Has anyone mentioned the song "Metro Gnome" for Brass Band? It's a b*tch to play. Following is a link where you can hear it.

Shouldn't there be a lawn gnome on public transportation?

Metro gnome?

lonelypond wrote:ha! and he looks a little like he's holding up his pants. Nice fuzzy detail on the boots. Definitely a fashion forward metrosexual type of gnome.

I think it would have been funnier if the metronome wasn't even there and it was a few images of the gnome filing his nails, in a chair with cucumbers over his eyes, shopping, etc.

Nice work, Ian.

A good shirt for Amazing Race fans. :^)

...I am in awe by the sheer genius of this shirt!

I'm wondering where the top end of the pendulum rod is going. Hopefully into the gnome's shirt or something...

I still use my mechanical metronome periodically. (Too cheap to replace it, since it still works just fine.)

I'd totally get this shirt, if I hadn't been put on shirt.woot purchasing hiatus by he who holds the purse strings. (Might have to sneak it in later this week.)

You just can't make puns like this in digital. Gnope... Gno way.

I always wondered what Santa Clause did when he was not out delivering presents. now i finally know how he is able to afford his delivery addiction.

One of the wittiest shirts I have seen ages!!!

The electric ones have been around for a while now. When rehearsing one day, my band director once commented that "this old thing must be slowing down," and about half of our band BELIEVED him.

Not one to comment ever, but I am nearly 100% sure Carrot Top had this bit 15 years ago, honest. Nice rendering though.

Metro? That Gnome is so not metro. I mean, where is his European shoulder bag? And, he's dressed for a Ren fair!

Shirt.woot used to have really cool designs and only a couple punny shirts. Now it's commanded by gaming shirts and these. Oh well, it was good while it lasted.

loaba wrote:Metro? That Gnome is so not metro. I mean, where is his European shoulder bag? And, he's dressed for a Ren fair!

I believe it's called a Satchel..."It's where I keep all my things. Get a lot of compliments on this. Plus it's not a purse, it's called a satchel. Indiana Jones wears one."

But I totally call it a murse.

If the gnome was dressed well, and the metronome was part of a larger gnome, it could be called, "Metro Metronome Gnome"

Why does no one else see that gnomes are horrible little creepsters?

Ick. Nothing worse than a picture of a creepy gnome with a stick poking out of it's ass plastered on my chest.

DO. NOT. WANT.

Looks more like a retrognome.

As a musician, I approve of this T-shirt. Makes me wish I had my grandmother's old metronome.

I agree...this shirt is quite BRILL...!

I hope the base has some weight to it. You get that Gonme swaying at 120 bpm and he is going to fall over.

At first I thought it was santa....and i was like christmas metronome? and then I realized it was a GNOME and I died laughing. soooo punny

If this is a "Metro"Gnome shouldn't his eyebrows be tweezed?

Add me to the list of gnome fans - I am amassing quite a collection of gnomes thanks to everyone I know buying them for me everytime they see one. This shirt is a must add!
Note to designers: If you design it with a gnome, I will buy it!

no sometimes there are some great shirts, but this isnt one of em. Dont lose faith so easily new wooter!

Got the Gnome shirt for my drummer husband--but it's a bit crooked...anyone else's crooked?
Don't know if it's supposed to be that way--just slightly off kilter....
