Stupid Large Hadron Collider. No man-made black hole. No dimensional portals. No rending of the very fabric of time and space. WHAT A GYP.

This was supposed to be the year when humanity tossed aside it’s differences and banded together to save our planet from whatever Extra-dimensional Doom Things emerged from the catastrophic destruction caused by Man’s scientific folly. Side by side, we would resist the maniacal savagery of these soul-sucking, flesh-devouring Creatures Of Teeth And Despair, regardless of race, creed, or gender, and take back our precious Earth from their slime-ridden grasp. And then, after we had finally defeated the Dark Tentacled Evils From Beyond Space, we would create a Utopian society based on the new found love and respect cultivated from our hard won battle to take back our world. At least, until some jerk came along to screw it up.

Oh, well. There’s always next year.

Wear this shirt: while you play Half-Life 2.

This shirt asks the question: “Are there extra dimensions, as predicted by various models inspired by string theory, and can we detect them?”

We call this color: Neutral Higgs Navy
