Shirt.Woot

I think it's hilarious for different reasons. Growing up there were the "What's black, white, and red all over?" jokes. All of these animals were answers to that. - A skunk that got hit by a truck, a zebra that fell out of a plane, a penguin that got tossed into an assembly plant.....

I think the people depicted are (L-r):
Stalin
Kim Jong-Il (guns n glasses)
Mau-Tse Tung (even tho it does look like Brezhnev, but the hat gives it away)
and...no idea who the magpie would be (Ho Chi Min?)

Regardless...it has a skunk on it..I'll buy one

Or my favorite, "what's green and has wheels and you see everyday?" Grass, I lied about the wheels. hehe

I got it immediately. Is 26 considered "old" nowadays? Maybe you haven't heard it since grade school because it's a grade school type joke. I mean, do you really find those kind of jokes funny anymore?

I need to buy one of these for Steven Colbert. Let him know the reds are changing their tactics to an all out Tee barrage.

Big Congrats!!!

That'd be hell on the plumbing.

but...there's no bear. That would have been perfect.

Black and White cartoon on a red shirt

Way to go Omni! I've been eyeing this design on your flickr page for awhile now. Glad to see it finally in print!

I WANT to love this shirt.
Good base color too.

its just not communist enough.

Zebra
Penguin
Magpie
Skunk

All animals that are black and white...

all animals are wearing communist (or red) garb.

There is your joke. Really, why is it so hard to get?

Agreed! It's a JOKE people, not a commentary on World Events!

Hilarious. Makes me think what else they could accomplish!

I don't know if it's because I've read Marx and Engels or because I still remember the "what's black and white..." jokes from when I was a kid, but I found this hilarious from the moment I saw it. And this is what I finally decided I'm going to spend my Woot certificate on!

My "commie" friend, though, thinks it's too cute.

Congrats- great print!

Ok so I really want this shirt but for some reason it keeps telling me I have to login after I login so I guess I'm going to miss out :/

I thought the same exact thing

I snagged two of these with next-day shipping, but it doesn't say it's shipped yet. I was kind of hoping to have this by this weekend as a part of a joke I am playing on a very capitalist friend of mine who will be surrounded with like-minded capitalist friends at some kind of gathering of capitalists. Any idea what's up?

Same here. So much for wearing this to Disneyland. At least the 4 Little Ponies of the Apocalypse arrived ahead of it.

I haven't gotten the shipment confirmation, but I'm pretty sure it's been shipped because they 'arrived'* today.

(*I missed the FedEx delivery, so they left a note, but their note doesn't tell you what the package was or who it was for, blah blah...)

Ditto here. I really wanted to wear it to a party tonight...

Still nothin', still doesn't say it was shipped. Any word? Should I be panic-emailing the customer service address?

Hmm, I ordered this shirt on monday and still haven't gotten it yet, and I even paid for the overnight shipping. I got my 5 bucks back from the overnight shipping, but I still want my shirt to come to my doorstep.

What's black and white and red all over is a joke people :P it's funny because it's black and white animals and they're red all over because communists are red. >.< lets keep it together yo!

My friend got his in and he ordered it smartpost.

I still don't have mine, and I used overnight. Seems like folks are having the same problem? I'll probably send Woot service an e-mail tomorrow. If anyone else gets a reply from 'em, post the goods here

It's been a solid week since the original scheduled arrival date at this point and I still got nothin'. The need for the second shirt I ordered is entirely null and void at this point, and as far as I can tell, it hasn't been shipped. Any way my order can be modified to no longer include the second shirt and the next day shipping?

(I'll email about this in a few minutes since I guess that's more the proper route to go by.)

I got mine but mine was unwearable, They burnt it when they put the silk screen on, Makes you wonder if it is all done by machine as far as the printing and folding and packing. The shirt was so bad that if it was done by a human then they need to get glases
