Shirt.Woot

When did these shirts become 12 bucks instead of 10?

As my own Facebook experience has drastically gone downhill thanks to overly political relatives and friends, I'm not really "liking" this shirt.

No offense to the designer, just bad timing for me personally.

I keep clicking the "Like" button but nothing is happening. Maybe I need to try the "Like Like" button.

$12? When did that happen? Super cute shirt.

I like this shirt, but I don't like like it.

^bad joke is bad.

I'd like to thank the Woot Academy. You REALLY like me. (in like sin for two). Come on Texas light up that board!

They changed the price to $12 days ago... What have you all been doing?! Sleeping?

Please see this very informative post...

I wish I was in Elementary school again because of this shirt.

OH MY FLIRTY GOODNESS!! LOL! Did he totally just SAY that to her like I thought they didn't have a thing!

Sounds just like high school.

For you, and the others asking about it I will be the provider of the link tonight.

Just click that link, and you can catch up on the reasoning and the on going debate.

*edt: ah, beaten to it!

I can't decide if this shirt is awesome or terrible.

Weeks, actually.

Also, this shirt is pretty awful.

Uhg, another facebook reference shirt?

Im less worried about the price change. Im more worried why you haven't been to shirt.woot in so long.

Meh

hasn't facebook trademarked or copyrighted the "like" logo yet???

I agree. I'm guessing it will sell under 500.

Cease and desist! Major copyright infringement! Major!

Where is the Don't Like button?

I'm sure they love the free publicity. Though with nearly 1 billion subscribers, I can't imagine there is anyone in the developed world who hasn't heard of them.

Where's Narfcake? I'm curious as to the number of Facebook like button parodies we've had so far.

I just ReTweeted this one! ;o)

congrats on another daily, Ian!

If any of you aren't real familiar with Ian's work, definitely check out his site. He's a cool dude, and is a great artist.

Though I don't hate it enough (yet) to go and delete my account, I really don't like Facebook. I back that up by very rarely logging in, to the extent that my friends complain about how I'm never on Facebook. (Seriously, what? If you want to get in touch with me, send a damn email! Call me if you have to!)

My dislike of facebook was recently bolstered by this article, about a study showing that people who spend a lot of time on facebook tend to be less satisfied with their (real, tangible) lives: http://www.slate.com/articles/double_x/doublex/2011/01/the_antisocial_network.html

Also, btw, not graduating from college is really not that fun, unless you have a trust fund. Take it from someone without a college degree OR a trust fund.

Is it wrong that after I read the shirt, I looked for a like button under the post to click...?

Congrats Ian!

For those who wish that there was a "like" button to go with this shirt, simply share it on Facebook using the provided link on the mainpage, and then hit "like" on your own post.

Unless of course it's too gauche to "like" one's own status. Was never sure how kosher that was...

Too many to care. I'm one who's more apt to wear a Foamy 'Dislike' shirt (NSFW, so I won't post it.)

Besides, in a few years, these may prove to be as popular as Myspace shirts in thrift shops.

what the hell is a facebook?

While this may look like just a Facebook joke, it's actually a Hey Arnold! joke too.

I'd make a Legend of Zelda joke here if I were funny...

woot, isn't this $12 experiment over yet? these are exactly the kind of shirts that make the extra $2 totally not worth it. Took an unofficial survey at superbowl party (amongst HEAVY shirt.woot buyers) and no one plans on buying $12 shirts unless they're epic. you are out of impulse buying range. Sorry woot.

52 shirts. probably 12 i HAD to have, and 40 impulse buys.

Yeah, I was going to say I would have been more like-likely to buy it if it had been a Zelda reference in addition to a Facebook reference.

That seems a little harsh... and by little I mean very and by harsh I mean out of line. It's $12.. not $20.

Plus the option of either free shipping or only $5 overnight. I don't know of many shirt sites that do that.

hey woot! i'm still jobless! sup with the $12?

i have over 80 wootshirts that i bought back when i was happily employed!

and since then i've bought like 4 more... but now at $12?!?!

occupy wootstreet.

completely agree!

so many of my impulse buys i barely even wear.. and if they were $12 i would've never bought em. ($2 is not a lot. but it just doesnt give the roundness $10 does)

I'd like to think that for 12 bucks I'm getting something original...not the same boring shirts at Target, Kohls, JC Penny or any of those other stores. Plus no one else is wearing it and if they are, there's a general conscientious that you're supporting the arts...and with schools lacking now days in the art department, I say why not? (does this count as tax deductible?)
