Re: Bring home the bacon

If there was a derby in which one of the rules was to be as off topic as possible would Ramyb win by a landslide or fail miserably because he doesn't know how to follow the rules?

Something to think about.

Re: Portable Armrests

This is still the best idea yet.

very cute, and I do love owls.

What is this 'rest of the day' of which you speak? You've never taken care of a real household, have you?

Re: Bring home the bacon

I think this fits perfectly... It's like that alarm clock that runs away when you try to hit snooze. It flies away when you try to take money out.

Thanks for the comments. You guys have made my day!

Thank you for backing me up.

This would sell well in Minnesota. Scandinavians aren't known for their love of spicy food. +1

No, Edison invented the LIGHT BULB, and omarfeliciano invented a new social networking METHOD.

The light bulb was a totally new invention. Cans and string being used to communicate isn't. Also, a method isn't an invention, which is what this derby is asking for, a new invention.

The shirt is clever, and well executed, it's just not on theme.

Or make sure you plug into a GFI.

Thanks guys!

Yeah I don't have a sketch pad, so drawing becomes an issue, and not having photoshop and resorting to paint.net also doesn't help lol...

Re: TrashBot 9000

Idea, +1. The wording, -1, since I'm a guy.

Re: Fish Sweaters

Next year, we'll introduce fish hoodies! Y'know, so your head doesn't get wet when it rains.

Re: Professor Flufflebottom's Cat Stache Trimmer

As a dog person, I don't usually go for cats ... but 13 of them in a collab? Too epic. GMV!

Re: Levelator

So I can buy these in both positive and negative attitude. I think I'll take one of each, so no matter how I'm feeling that day it will compliment my sentiments. GMV

If the shirt on the shirt were in fact a depiction of the shirt itself, should it not have a tiny image of the shirt on it? Itself with a tiny shirt image on i,. etc., etc?

Wonder how many iterations you could get on there..! :P

Re: TrashBot 9000

How is that offensive?

Re: TrashBot 9000

This rejection is the single most asinine thing I have yet to see happen on this site. This design is nowhere comparable to the rejected design that implied that wives were invented to be slaves to husbands. As an actual husband who routinely forgets to take out the trash, the thought that someone would be incapable of taking an age old self-effacing joke never crossed my mind. The judgement behind the decision to reject this while allowing designs that are terribly off topic to rack in the votes is poor at best. I am hugely disappointed.

Love this, GMV.

I dig the idea and the execution, very clean...haha. GMV

Re: TrashBot 9000

This offends my sensitive male ego.
I am a human with feelings and positive self-worth and do not appreciate being called lazy.

Now go get me a fresh beer and a bag of cheesy poofs. Daddy's tired from his long nap and doesn't have the energy.

eta: I think this may have been rejected out of a sense of consistency. (shock!)

Huh. That actually makes fair bit of sense.

Re: mousewarmer

Tee hee.

GMV :D

Gotta love well played satire/sarcasm.

Re: Trashbot 9000 Resub

Introducing the Trashbot 9000! The only thing he loves more than taking out the trash is you! Please vote or revote (all 3 of you)

I guess if you are trying to read into it, that makes sense. But just taking the shirt at face value there is nothing to indicate that at all. I am amazed this has not yet been rejected for being completely off topic. It wouldn't be that hard to re-sub it with some text to make it fit the theme.

Re: Trashbot 9000 Resub

I hope there aren't any spiders reading this; we wouldn't want to step on all those toes...

Re: Trashbot 9000 Resub

Shame the first one was "offensive". This is the perfect example of what they want.
"In fact, here's the catch: give us a device that helps you in the most mundane, inconsequential areas of life that no person with the cognitive capacity to acquire money would consider wasting it on one."

A humanoid robutt that could clearly do many things, that is solely used for taking out garbage. That's good.

Re: An App for That

I would vote for this if it didn't have text.

Re: Scuba Fish

We need a baby fish isolator to go with this.

The best part to me about japanese-text shirts are when they DON'T quite make sense... a sortof reverse-Engrish (and some of the Engrish shirts you can get in Japan are HILARIOUS)

Plus the style of this art is perfect, it seriously could have come off a product packaging straight from Japan
