Shirt.Woot

Congrats Wences, esta super chida carnal!!

I was knocked over by this shirt! -prolly the bust? I haven't bought a woot shirt for over a year. until today. so, so good.

I like the way that, depending on how you look at it, the raven is either standing and facing the window or is standing with his back to the window and looking over his shoulder. It's a really cool effect.

I'm assuming there's more than a few English students out there that aren't...

Still slim, but not as long.

Agreed! I have 10 Woot shirts, but haven't bought one in like 3 years, because it's seemingly all been "Hey, we've anthropomorphized this typically inanimate object, ain't it cute?", or "Here's a mashup/reference to that recent|nostalgic movie/show/book you like!", or yet another unfortunate execution of an otherwise clever idea...

I just don't subscribe to the school of thought that just *any* concept is appropriate for a t-shirt. It's gotta read well from a decent distance and register quickly on a drive by.

And this one totally fits the bill.

Bought. Hopefully the dry spell is over.

Yay! I glad you got the truly references of this ;)

Thanks guys for all the support! I really appreciate it!

Lovely. Just lovely.

Agreed. And while the shirt is good, Tennessee Williams' Raven on a Hot Tin Roof was outstanding!

Awesome design! Congrats!

Pleasepleaseplease sell a poster and a hoodie of this design, though.

I don't get it either. Even more perplexing is the fact that people are so obsessed with it, they must wear a t shirt professing their love for it.
