Pwn’d

I don’t know how many episodes of Batman I watched when I was a kid, but I do know that I loved the hell out of those campy 60’s reruns. I’m pretty sure that the crazy ass camera angles, wildly contrasting colors, brightly flashing onomatopoeia and constant glimpses at pop culture thru a fun house mirror fucked me up a little bit — but I’m okay with that.
Nerdy Shirts has done a great job reworking a slice of modern slang into some vintage Batman art with their Pwn’d shirt. It’s versatile enough to work at both a LAN party and ComicCon — and that (along with my aforementioned bit of nostalgia) make this shirt pretty fucking sweet.
P.S. I don’t think people who would attend either of those events really put a lot of forethought into what they’re going to wear — judging from all the cosplay and bloated bellies hanging over sweat pants — but I’ll try to give y’all the benefit of the doubt for a change.
P.P.S. Don’t take offense to that “chubby, sweat pants wearing” stereotype, nerds. I didn’t mean anything by it. Hell, I used to be one of you in high school. Trust me, there is a way out. It’s called getting laid.

[...] Bonus: Meet the Real Sacha Baron Cohen, an interview by Terry Gross on Fresh Air. Plus: Preshunk posts Pwn’d, one of the best Batman t-shirts I’ve ever seen. In other superhero news, Sketching a Toy Model using Spider-Man. Neat. And: Eating In, interesting short fiction from a strange kind of madness (one of my fine flickr contacts is behind it). [...]

Nay, sir: it is called getting laid by someone not in poorly executed cosplay.
I think there’s a line there.
Love the shirt. Brilliant blog. Complimentary et cetera.

[...] Preshrunk reader Paul was nice enough to give us a heads up on a sale that’s not happening on the internet. That means that some of you might have to go outside to participate in it. Nerds in sweatpants, I’m looking your way… The X-Large Flagship Store will be having their annual sample and clearance sale January 12 - 14. Every X-Large item in the store will be 20%-70% off. Everything from the tees to the hats to the hoodies will be marked down. It gets crazy every year and from what I understand stock is pretty limited. They are located at: [...]
