Heartland

This guy deserves a statue.

The head of TshirtHell.com (a website that offers offensive t-shirts), was poisoned because someone took his offensiveness towards the t-shirts a bit too far... Still, due to huge amounts of support from friends, family and fans, he continues his quest of sometimes dubious, harsh humor.

As I bought some tees there myself (the one with 'I used to listen to N-Sync when they were Underground' and the 'Once you go Asian, you'll never go Caucasian'), it was with horror and disbelief that I read this article.

Killing someone because he sell t-shirts that are sometimes offensive (ok, some of them are really rude, even I am not that blind) is taking it a bit too far, I believe...

IZ.

I bet it's a promotional scam gone wrong.

Good site, there. Glad to see that for every outraged person, there's ten more people laughing at 9/11.

Eleven.

Unless you think the poisoner was enjoying his right to freedom of expression as well, of course.

Then it all gets complicated

Let's get Markfiend on the case and we can all have a big juicy debate about it!

Just as long as it doesn't get as big, juicy and debated as the European Union one. That thread overdosed on wordcount

I read that as a CHALLENGE!

Oops

No other way to put it really

I'm not a big fan of slogan t-shirts myself, but I got one today which brought a lump to my throat: A Dad is for life, not just for Father's Day.

Nice.

I tried to wade through it. Got to the end of the second page after two hours. You owe me two hours of entertainment, B.

It's nice to see that the fact I have an opinion on everything has not gone unnoticed. I think

T-shirt slogans to die for?

Like it says on the tshirthell site "F*ck 'em if they can't take a joke".

What's all this about the EU debate being long?

Some of the youngsters need educating. I'd have described it as a fascinating meeting of different cultures debating the prospects and desirability of a common goal. Despite collectively knowing sod-all about it (apologies to my co-contributors, but everything else I put forward was general and vague, so there's no real need to change )

I like this 'going on holiday, no need to pay attention at work' feeling. Don't you?

The art of waffling.

I'm a maestro. As you may have noticed.

The quickest to rocket up the post-count league since...

When I first arrived here, when Boudicca was not even a cybernetic gleam in a CPU's eye (I don't believe any of you are real people, by the way, I'm assuming this is an elaborate game of artificial stupidity or something ), I posted an introduction and a warning. I'm sure you can find it if you look.

It covered most of the above points fairly clearly. Maybe I should add it to my sig.

If we were in the States I think I'd be pleading the fifth

Guilty as charged. I'm trying to keep the place moving in James Blast's absence!

No, the stupidity's real enough.

Sure we do. However, I made my view perfectly clear on the first page on that thread, and there is no way in hell I'm reading all you've been writing.

There's a reason my posts are all on a few lines.

The impatience of youth. Bless. /hugs/

Don't worry Dark. Some day you too will be a sad old fart with time enough to write an essay every half-hour, and all because you can't face doing any work.

Right there with you. Time we enjoyed our youth before we become bitter, cynical...oh, wait.
