Shirt.Woot

I like the melancholy feeling I get from the little guy looking out the window. A Walmazan print always brings a smile to my face.

At least the in-flight meal is fish.

So happy to see this print! This was a must buy!

He should just be glad he got the window seat

The penguin's body language is so wistful as he stares out the airplane window. Wishes don't always turn out quite like we would like them to, but dreams are what sustain us during the mundane banality of daily life.

I think I understand how that penguin feels.

It could have been worse, he could be a flying fish now.

Comical and tragic, my favorite kind of Woot Shirts.

Wistful? Melancholy? Are we looking at the same shirt? You see those 3 lines above the penguins head? Those are to indicate surprise.

Memorizing the view. Nicely done.

In case you didn't get the joke.

And just offscreen, the walrus who wished for dinner.

This is, no joke, the most helpful thing any wooter could post daily. You've been here for like 3 years, so I'm sure you understand.

This could have saved years of misguided cries of racism, not to mention the continual "huh, I haven't seen this TV show, therefore I don't get it. Is this a Gilmore Penguins joke?"

It was supposed to be satire on how political cartoons explain way too much. If it gets a good response I might start doing this on nights I get bored with the other woots. Yes I'll continue to use comic sans because it is the best font ever created.


Edit: Wait! I have the approval of the great Adder?!? I think this might become a nightly thing for me now. Dammit, gonna have to go to bed later now.

I must be one the the people Cap'n was talking about. Thanks, Dann.

shirt.woot people: I'd buy Dann's version of the shirt.

His revision was better because it actually showed the surprise with more than just some lines.

I so wish this was on the shirts I get from the random shirt days. This shirt I understand without explanation. A lot of the random shirts I get are over my head. Although it is fun to wear those around because random people will comment about how awesome my shirt is and that people just don't get it these days! Lol

I really love this shirt. I also loved the other design but honestly I was going to be happy with either one printing. Yay walmazan!

Political cartoons of the sort you describe are, after probably Diesel Sweeties and Family Circus, the worst comics possible. That makes two approvals in one night. Some people haven't gotten that many in their whole time here. And won't.

Are we friends???

The shirt should be printed double sided with this on the back so when people ask you what your shirt is of all you have to do is turn around and show the explanation.

I think I'm gonna faint. This is truly an honour. And to think I was considering not posting this here, leaving it just for Deals.Woot-chat. Fantastic.

That would be even better. Someone do this. Please. I'll buy it.

If CowboyDann capitalizes the Is, I'd buy one too. Maybe even on Anvil.

Don't we need Walmazan's permission?

captainsuperdawg wrote:Don't we need Walmazan's permission?

Well, yes. And we'd need woot's cooperation. I suspect the former would be forthcoming, coupled with laughter, and the latter... not so much?

nooo! I know this is such a minor detail, but it really bothers me that the artist had to add those three "surprise" lines above the penguin's head.

Was so much better when I thought the penguin was sad, not surprised.

Wait... former means the first one and latter means the last one, so ... ok, got it.

Cowboy Dann is pure awesome sauce.

+1 I would definitely buy this.

Thanks for this. I was so confused looking at the picture... I had no idea it was a lamp he was holding.
Edit* Honestly I thought he was holding down his beak.... I was so confused.

Oh man I can't un-see that now.

Reminds me of Opus and Bill: A Wish for wings that work.

to add insult to injury, the in-flight movie was "March of the Penguins."

I don't need - or even want - another t-shirt.

My t-shirts are primarily stay-at-home-wear, but this is too cute to keep it from being displayed in public.

Maybe I can turn it into a tote bag. Or travel pillow.

Congrats Wences!:D:D

In the actual true story, the woman was black.

I think this is kindof why so many spoke out about not liking the thought bubble on the T-Rex shirt...you could figure out what was going on just by spending a little time to think about it (still all three designs are top notch and congrats to the winners)
