Yes, it sure does look like I’m going commercial, doesn’t it?
Last ones for a few days. I really enjoyed making both of these.
A Crabby-Sushi T-shirt. (Inspired by a very good friend of mine.)
A Rad Shark T-shirt. (Inspired by another very good friend of mine.)
Note: The store is in a bit of disarray… Zazzle doesn’t update rapidly at times.
Lookin’ good over there. The eco dollars do go well on mugs.
I like the crabby t-shirt 😀
My daughter is a sushi fan… and a Cancer sign. I may have to get that for Christmas!
If you have a special request for certain personal touches to the design, contact me offline…
Okay, what’s a Rad shark?
Why is it wearing a bikini?
Why is the bikini top a Swiss flag?
Does the “rad” stand for radiation or cool?
Is that a representation of a hydrogen ion or a lithium atom or something else? The only thing I know about chemistry is that some acids burn your hand and others burn your mind but that sorta looks like the chest of Atom Ant.
Is that a great white shark?
If so, does that make the T-shirt racist?
Other than that, I understand the whole thing.
Hi Veeshir! I will do my best to answer your burning questions…
Ok, the friend who inspired this was a lifeguard just as I was. She was/is a she, so it made sense to put it in a female swimsuit and originally it was a one-piece but she insisted on a bikini that would emphasize a shark’s natural gifts (boobs). No, I don’t know if boobs are a natural part of a shark’s natural gifts. I was told “just go with it, ok?”
Lifeguards wear red trunks usually and a Red Cross suit will typically have a white cross (I don’t know why). She’s intensely interested in things nukular (poke poke). She’s like a shark in that she can be merciless, is always moving, and … and … well, that’s it. She can’t breathe water.
Said nuclear element is symbolic of the generic concept “radioactive stuff” and wasn’t meant to be a neutron-proton-electron model complete with Bohr orbital representation. I can’t think of an instance where one proton could ever be “paired” with three electrons so we can’t say that this shark is a singular positive entity and attracts negative elements (which would be so cool, but alas, it is not meant to be).
Said friend is white, so barring any real legitimate reason, to have NOT made it a white shark could be considered racist.
Great White Shark”… hadn’t envisioned it as such. Maybe a it’s a “Pretty Good White Shark”. No, let’s go with “Great White” – she’s a pretty awesome friend.
I’m glad I didn’t post the one where my lemur was standing on her head. (Our “Lemur-Shark Productions” logo) That might have been confusing.
Y’all really don’t know why there is a white cross used as the emblem of the Red Cross? REALLY???
Because if it were a red cross on red trunks you couldn’t see it?
Well, sure, a red cross is red because… it’s a red cross. Now why you would reverse ’em, I dunno. White being a symbol of peace/surrender.
I’m just a simple redneck engineer lemur. What do I know?
Clara Barton founded the Order of the Red Cross in Switzerland, and when they decided on an emblem, they simply reversed the Swiss flag, which is red with a white cross. However, when it came to swimming and lifeguards, the white was not easy to see in the water, so the order was switched to red background, white cross.
Redneck engineer lemur? How adorable 🙂
Redneck engineer lemurs are not, as you say, “adorable”.
We are rubbing-eyeballs-with-fingers and banging-our-heads-on-brick-walls psychotic, is what we are. We are socially inept and quite often assholes. We are beyond-redemption peculiar, as well.
But we are not “adorable”.
(twitches head agitatedly)
Time for my next thorazine dose…
Dude, all that kinda makes y’all adorable. My definition doesn’t follow Webster’s, you know.
I should say I’m asking because I like the shirt.
Love your Global Worming pic right there>>>>>>
That what I call it too.
Disclaimer: I may have stolen it.
Steal away, veeshir! That particular one took some real time to figure out how to do but I’ve no plans to sell it ever. Steal it and do so shamelessly.
