Nice design tjost!

Honey badger meme video for those not familiar (NSFW language).

Greatest comment ever!

This is a lie.

I still don't think it'll care if you buy the shirt.

For those interested in this still, there is a new baby honey badger video

Heh. Look at the cobra try and get away.

WHAT BLASPHEMY IS THIS?!

Only a year late, no biggie.

I become more and more disappointed every time I visit this site. This meme is old, and not super popular, and I'm still pissed about the whole, shipping things overseas, and giving us lower quality shirts. It just seems like Shirt.woot is becoming a dive.

I find myself questioning reality right now... Honey Badger is incapable of caring...

Not buying it... don't trust 'em.

Even the uncaring-est of creatures can still have a heart.

Agreed. While a great illustration, it's outdated, tacky, and lacking originality. It may be time to remove shirt.woot! from my bookmarks.

Great shirt!!

This shirt is a lie. I'm pretty sure the honey badger STILL doesn't give a fertilizer... just like Woot doesn't give a fertilizer that I can't order this shirt because it's printed on Anvil and they fit like crap.

Amen.

When the meme is big enough to get its own TV pilot, I don't think it's accurate to say that it's "not super popular".

Just saying.

(I'd probably agree with the rest of your post, but I don't live overseas and I haven't ordered any of the new shirts yet so I don't know how they fit me.)

That seems like an overreaction if it's just based on this shirt.

Woot's shirts are as hit-or-miss for me as always. I've ordered two or three in a week before, but I can also go for months without placing an order. The design is nice, but not enough for me to want to spend $12 on it.

I guess you're correct spiderweb. (I had NO idea there was a pilot. lol)
Although, I thought one of the things that shirt.woot prided itself on was originality. I think this shirt runs similar to the "winning" shirt that was run after that charlie sheen debacle. It may be funny now, and to people that have seen the meme but in a couple years, people won't remember why it was such a big deal. It just seems like a gyp compared to the quality I used to see here.

I think I can mostly agree with this. While still disappointed with the shirt change over, I still like looking and trying to give the design a fair shake. Sometimes I know straight up whether or not I want a design. Sorry Tjost, no go for me. I don't think I'm a real meme shirt type of guy.

However, while the design of the day may not be my thing, I know that others have different tastes than me and this could appeal to them.

*shrugs*

Woah, I just noticed. When did Wootbot change it's avatar?

Even thought this shirt is a lie, I still want it.

He really does love snakes and bees... in his stomach. The look on his face is priceless.

Great shading, and the yellow stroke holds the design together with the text really nicely. Smart!

Congrats T. :^)

when i first saw this, i asked myself, how is this related to LSU's Tyrann Mathieu? must be an inside joke among LSU fans. among non-LSU college football fans, i don't think this t-shirt will sell very well.

I love the colors.

But I agree. Much like the cake, the Honey Badger is a liar. There is no way he possibly cares now all of a sudden. I dont trust him one bit!

The shirt's designer should fear the wraith of LSU:

Oh Man!! You show them!!!

Backwards, innit?

I like the idea, but wearing it in a few months will be pointless, assuming it's not pointless now. It will be "I remember when..." instead of relevant.

I was responding annigirl22, not "them". I couldn't care less about "showing them" anything. Take off the internet boxing gloves, fella. It's not worth the swing.

Not bad, but I have seen this done better IMO, on a much higher quality t-shirt:

Yeah, cuz mentioning that your going to remove shirt.woot from your bookmarks on the shirt.woot forum isn't a JAB at all.

LIES!!!

If we could not try to incite fights, that'd be cool too.

As for the shirt itself, it's a pretty interesting design with a lot going on.

Wow, this is very similar to the one at threadpower.com Completely unoriginal idea.

Think I'm going to buy one for my 5 yr old son. He hasn't seen the video it connects with, but he likes badgers, cobras, etc. He'll get a kick out of it whether or not it is based on the 15 minutes of some youtube vid.

I believe the K sizes are made in the USA, too. Better quality there?
