3. Because if I were to own a Heino tee
My coolness would have such mass that I would fold inwards on myself.

your name in the blank

8. You don't want a t-shirt that declares that you died an honorable...
death in the 1914 offensive? What kind of priorities do you have?

9. All people would see is "Vaterland," and Bismarck helmets
Edited on Thu May-11-06 03:40 AM by jpgray
When would those two in combination ever impress the opposite sex?

29. Get this, if I catch a student using Babelfish or something similar...
I'm supposed to turn them over to an enforcer who will try to get them kicked out of school. We're hardcore like that!

30. Damn! Not like those tools work too well anyway
After 1001 you can't really just throw something into a web dictionary and expect to get proper grammar.

31. Multiple babelfishes are hilarous though
Step 1: (E->G)

Erhalten Sie dieses, wenn ich einen Kursteilnehmer mit Babelfish oder ähnlichen etwas... mich verfange Ich soll sie zu einer Authorität umwenden, die versucht, ihnen getretenes außerschulisches zu erhalten. Wir sind hardcore wie das!

Step 2: (G->E)

Receive this, if I get caught a class participant with Babelfish or similar something... me I am her to a Authoritaet to turn, which tries, them stepped except-school to receive. We are hard core like that!

Step 3: (E->P)

Receba isto, se eu começar travar um participant da classe com Babelfish ou similar algo... mim que eu sou ela a um Authoritaet para os girar, que tente, pisar exceto-escola a receber. Nós somos núcleo duro como aquele!

Step 4: (P->E)

I receive this, if to start to stop one participant of the classroom with Babelfish or similar something... me that I am it to a Authoritaet to turn them, that tries, to step on except-school to receive. We are hard nucleus as that one!

17. Wow, THE SPARKS !!!!!
I had an LP around 1976 of them and when I moved to southern cal I saw them at the Greek Theatre around 1984 when they became popular with their "All you ever think about is sex". They were also in a moive during that time where they were playing at Magic Mountain and a crazy guy tried to blow up the new roller coaster that went upside down in a loop.

27. Can the D.I.Y. ethic go high-tech?
Love the design.

As soon as I get a printer that's worth a damn, I'll be rolling out the "All My Friends Are Dead" T-shirt.
