Hello internets,

I'm getting rid of some of my clever T-shirts that are either too big for me, or not so clever as per the test of time. If you want one or more of these, let me know. You can paypal me a few bucks for shipping or whatever, really, I'd just rather they go to someone who wants them, and am too lazy to sell things on eBay.

If pictures would help, then ask.

- "snm, I'll tell you where to go today" (parody of MSN logo) with pixelated hand flipping the bird (from Don't Panic). Size L, white.
- Shawn Colvin 1993 Fat City tour shirt (with image of Shawn Colvin resembling the one on the cover of _Fat City_ on the front). Size XL, black. (I really like this shirt, it's just too big for me.) claimed by dangerpudding
- women's symbol on front breast, this text on back:

Size M, white. claimed by cheshire
- Good Vibrations T-shirt with cartoon diagram of woman's head, caption "What Women Are Really Thinking About" (various fine Good Vibrations products, is the upshot). Apparently this was a limited-edition run for the Folsom Street Fair. Size L, white text on black. claimed by commodorified
- Everybody Loves Eric S. Raymond. Size L, black.
- On the flip side, this shirt ("Hacking Life" with glider design.) Size L, grey. (I can no longer stand to wear anything associated with ESR, whether pro- or anti-.) claimed by cheshire
- Multnomah County Library Summer Reading 2008 shirt with cartoon of bug saying "Read!" in various languages. Size XL, red.
- "MIT because... [front] not everyone can go to Wellesley [back]". Size XL, white. (I found that nobody gets this joke. Plus too big.) claimed by a non-DW-enabled friend
- "I'm blogging this" from ThinkGeek. Size L, white text on black. (This was only cool for a brief period of time. Okay, maybe it was never cool.) claimed by cheshire
- If you're in Portland, about 6 XL and XXL plain solid and striped T-shirts (too boring to mail).

Hilariously enough, I've given away most of those same t-shirts.

Also, OpenID commenting is not allowed by default on your journal, you may want to change that. (Or it's because of bad implementation by DW. I don't know.)

...*bwuh*? You posted this via OpenID :-)

Or if you're referring to the greyed-out-ness of the OpenID radio button, I can't do anything about that. You have to log in first in order to comment.

Hey, found you though shemale, and read your journal, so this is to introduce myself (cheshire_bitten) on lj and to beg for shirts, I am in australia so I can understand if you don't want to send them, but if you do I will happily paypal the money.

"I'm blogging this" from ThinkGeek. Size L, white text on black. I think it is cool.

I'm happy to send the shirts. I don't know how much shipping will cost, so let me try to estimate that and let you know what it will be before you decide if you want to pay it or not.

Just so you know, the "Hacking Life" shirt has a slight faded coffee stain (about the width of one square in the grid in the design). I think it looks ok from a distance. The other two you mentioned are in good shape.

[cheshire]

ok thanks. Don't worry about the coffee stain.

Hey there, I had a chance to weigh the shirts, and postage to Australia will be US$14.20. If you're still interested, let me know, and I'll send you my email address for paypal.

[cheshire]

yes please chesh.bitten (at) gmail Dot com

[dangerpudding]

I'd *love* the Shawn Colvin one. :) Can paypal you something on Weds.

[tim]

I trust you, so will go ahead and send it -- still at the same address where you were in December?

[tim]

Sent today, it was something like $2.50 but now I can't find the receipt so you can wait till it gets there to paypal me :-)

How does no one get that joke?! I mean, it is slightly different from the Harvard/MIT version b/c, well, women's college. But it seems like a fairly straightforward lol.

If you want to mod the ones that don't fit instead of giving them away, I could give you pointers. Though I bet Instructables or somewhere has step-by-step illustrated guides.

[tim]

I had someone look at me blankly when I explained it and say "that is a shirt with a rather limited audience."

Realistically I will never get around to modding shirts, though it seems like a good idea :-)

I would dearly love the Good Vibes shirt. Particularly if it's a women's cut, but not necessarily.

I can pay shipping or send some small cool thing from Canada.

Re: Here via friendsfriends, which makes this a bit of cheek but

[tim]

It's yours. It's a men's (unisex?) cut, though.

Private-message me your address and we can work out details :-)
