Cuppa Tees

Anatomy

2010-01-07T10:24:00.000-08:00

Usually I'm not one to post about shirts from Tee Fury, since they're only available for one day and that kind of wrecks my whole archive system, but I couldn't resist this one.

That's right - $9 American will get you this AT-AT X-ray tee, but only until midnight tonight. After that, it'll be gone FOREVER! Or until the designer gets it picked up by Threadless. Either one.

And if you haven't seen Family Guy's "Something Something Something Dark Side," you're really missing out. Do yourself a favor and get in on that awesome AT-AT action (at 1:35).

Bought the Power

2010-01-05T00:34:00.000-08:00

A while back I wrote about a particular He-Man shirt that I was fond of. Now, all this time later, I finally bought one! They didn't have my size in gray (which, let's be honest, would have been the fitting color), so I went with black, and am hoping for a bit of fade-out at some point in the future. Without further ado, I give you the power of Greyskull:

Loiter was quick to fill my order, and when the sizing ran a bit too large, they were extremely helpful in getting me the correct size. All in all, a good experience. Thanks, Tony!

(And in case you were wondering, yes, my camera did correctly identify the skull as a face and focused on it. Gotta love Canon.)

Inevitable Betrayal

2010-01-02T12:33:00.000-08:00

Ok yes, I realize I'm several years late in getting on board with the whole Firefly thing, but I'm here now, so just chill. And while you're chilling, might I suggest you wear this stylish little number, featuring one of my favorite lines of the series?

So much awesome, so little time.

Merry Christmas!

From all of us here at Cuppa International to all of you out there everywhere, Merry Christmas!

Echo Base

I found Hoth! Turns out it's not a planet, it's New England. Sweet. Now, where's my Tauntaun...

Jesus is my Health Insurance

2009-12-22T13:55:00.000-08:00

In honor of the progress of the health care bill, and the fact that it won't help anyone I know, I give you this:

And just in case He doesn't cover non-generics, I stocked up on incense, eye of newt, and voodoo dolls.

Love

2009-12-21T16:52:00.000-08:00

'Tis the season of strife, anger, and senseless violence. In that spirit, I present you with these:

Love and feet, people. Love and feet.

Zombie Vampire Robots from Space!

2009-11-19T13:50:00.001-08:00

Greatest idea ever?

Or Most Deadly?

Both?

Evil Comes in All Sizes

2009-11-12T18:57:00.000-08:00

That's what they're calling this one, but I have my doubts. All sizes? Then where's the XXXXL? Hmmm? And why are the men's shirts sized in letters and the women's shirts in numbers? Must be a metric system thing. I've never understood the British.

Invasion

2009-04-16T20:55:00.000-07:00

Clearly I love a good Space Invaders shirt (or two, or three, or four), so I suppose it's entirely predictable that I adore this mold-breaking tee from Jinx:

By the way, that picture is totally Photoshopped. You can tell because the shadows are all wrong.

Shoe Thrower

2009-04-10T18:16:00.000-07:00

Sure, it's a Banksy ripoff (which was itself derivative), but it's still a great tribute to Muntazer al-Zaidi.

Who has two thumbs and throws a shoe? That guy.

Are Your Cats Old Enough To Learn About Jesus?

2009-04-04T14:21:00.000-07:00

I think the answer will always be Yes, although the cats might not agree.

Spoilt

2009-03-31T02:04:00.001-07:00

And from the same designer of The Food Chain, we have this - [SPOILER ALERT] the ultimate spoiler shirt.

Oh crap, I've seen all but two of those. What am I doing with my life??

The Food Chain

2009-03-31T01:58:00.000-07:00

I (ultimately) found this shirt through Rumplo, thanks to Annie!

When the zombie apocalypse comes, if one of them bites me, I want you to shoot me. But no shooting before that. Hey! I see you...

Love Forever

2009-03-30T00:44:00.000-07:00

Even the French love Space Invaders!

Technically the design was commissioned by the Taito Corporation, but the designer is still French!

O'Bama

2009-03-17T21:47:00.000-07:00

Every time someone compares our fair president with JFK, I always wonder why no one points out that they're both of Irish descent. How's about we spread the word?

Disapproving Narwhal

2009-03-16T16:36:00.000-07:00

A big "Thankee Kindly" to Andrew for bringing today's Shirt Woot to my attention:

You're right, it is a little cutesy, but just look at that face! How can you say anything but a sheepish "I'm sorry" to that face, followed immediately by a squeaked "awwwww!"?

Called For Help

2009-03-13T22:15:00.000-07:00

In honor of the slightly-delayed release of a Pac-Man energy drink, I give you this bit of genius from the one and only Glennz:

Conservation Status

2009-03-13T20:51:00.000-07:00

This one definitely fits into the "I don't think I'd ever wear it, but it made me giggle" category. I particularly enjoy the unicorn and zombie.

Playing God

2009-03-12T23:06:00.001-07:00

Andrew, I hope this is the one you were talking about:

because it's awesome and I love it. And in case you don't follow the link, I'd like to share this snippit from the product description:

"Move over, dinos! Now there’s somethin’ meteor!"

Robot Monster

2009-03-11T12:57:00.000-07:00

In contrast to most of the designs I've seen so far today, this one actually admits to being designed by a 5-year-old. I really think the kid is on to something!

And if you like that, check out his "Monster Mash" shirt.

Bad Decision, Mr. Z

2009-03-10T18:54:00.001-07:00

Mathlete

2009-03-10T18:46:00.000-07:00

Today I saw eight deer! Eight! In Los Angeles! WTF! Of course, if you're paying attention, you know that eight! is 40320. Mathletes, unite!

Five Crown shirts

2009-03-07T19:36:00.001-08:00

I know I usually just feature one shirt per post, but I stopped by my local DNA yesterday and picked up these two shirts made by Five Crown, and thought they both merited a chance. In no particular order, I give you

and

Five Crown sells their shirts in a lot of small retailers in the LA area, but if you're not here, you can find them online at a variety of sites. I found a green version of "Keep Life Wild" on PalmerCash, but I have yet to come across the same version of "Green is my Favorite Color" online. Guess that makes me an early adopter! F1RST!!1!!!

You Are What You Eat

2009-03-06T13:21:00.001-08:00

Step aside, vegans! There's a new game in town.

(For those of the weak-eyed persuasion, the shirt reads "You are what you eat, that's why I only eat dinosaurs")
