New Shirts

It's been a while since we put up new shirts, so Colette and I put together three designs, now available at our store, Non-Zero Chance. Here they are:

Any chance of actually adding the "What do we want? What we have! When do we want it? Now!" tagline to the Status Quo shirt itself? Because that's my favorite part.

Sorry, we still have pre-printed Status Quo shirts in stock, so we're not going to change the design at least until those sell.

Definitely need to order the "Do you find this form ... pleasing?" design for my favorite nerd. Or maybe for me ... I could use the attention.

Lore, i totally don't get the "do you find this form... pleasing" t-shirt. I researched it and everything and I am completely filled with non-understanding. Please help -- Lori.

Could someone explain for those of us with less nerd-fu what the third one is?

Tried Googling the "do you find this form pleasing?" reference. Google suggests "do you find this form filling?" instead.

Official Explanations:

The third shirt is a picture of the Tower of Hanoi game. Beginning programming students are often required to write a version of Tower of Hanoi in order to learn recursion. (2^n - 1) is the minimum number of steps required to solve the Tower of Hanoi, where n is the number of discs.

The "This Form" shirt is not a direct quote from anything. Rather, it's the sort of thing said by a shapechanging alien or demon in cheesy science fiction or fantasy while trying to seduce the hero.

the "Form" shirt stumped me only when I tried, as a second hunch, to find a specific reference. the shapechanging seducer actually came to me first. Now, I must say that Google's suggestion of "do you find this form...filling?" to be exceedingly comical.

Tempting, but my collection of ridiculously nerdy shirts is possibly already too large and nerdy. I got the 'Geometry' shirt from Achewood, and if I get any more I might be run out of town on a rail. Like a Ruby.

...while licking their lips with a forked tongue. Lore I might be in love with this shirt.

Oh, man. It took me two whole minutes to realize what "AFK" meant. ("Alfred F. Kennedy?? What??") I'm such a doofus.

I've always wanted a shirt that would make people stare at my chest for extended periods of time. I mean, moreso than they already do, but without confusion.

I can think of several people who would be right at home in a "Do you find this form...filling?" shirt.

Oh my god, these shirts are as cool if not more so than the one that has the "Resurrect now?" (or something like that) button on it!
