Woohoo, Slack outside of our geekland :D


I was recently at the mall, and wandered into Hot Topic (might be called Hot Tropic, don't go enough to remember). I came along this row of shirts with the old NES controller on the front of them. I was very stoked to say the least, I thought that was great. I then turned around and saw the old Atari paddles on it! I was having problems deciding, when I pulled them both out to compare and see what was on the back...

Woohoo! Slacker! Yes, I know, it's probably a coincidence, but hey, I've got me a slack shirt now! It gets better. I obviously got this shirt, but figured it was just cool looking, but it's that awesome "underall" material too! I don't know what you guys all call it, but it's long johns material around here. Very warm, yet allows breathing. Long sleeved too. All for just 20 bux ( US ) Woohoo! I'm Slacker 00

Cool

Do you think SuSe has anything to do with linux distro?
Do you think your computer has anything to do with linux distro?
Does your computer say "Slacker"? No.

Let others have fun, and dont ruin it with your "Hey, I'm genius!" like posts.
This is OTF after all.

Peace.

Hey, if MasterC wants to believe that this shirt represents being a Slacker as in the Slackware distro, then all power to him.. let him have his fun.

All power to you MasterC in being a Slacker..

he he he, I think I'm gonna email this thread to Patrick and see if he can build some similar, yet truly Slack-related (as in the distro) shirts. Like the one you've described Tincat2 Or maybe there are already some out there?

We will see...

Cool

Whoa, and it's off. I sent him an email with a short description of this thread, and a link to it. If I get a reply, I will definitely let you all know

You can order Slack shirts from their store though: http://store.slackware.com

They don't have the Blue logo you mentioned but do have all kinds of Slackware apparel and stuff.

Last time, i was at a mall too. I went there to buy a shirt actually coz I needed a new shirt badly that time.
Then I was looking around and didn't know what shirt to choose. Then suddently I saw a shirt. wow man! I saw a shirt with a big red hat at the back.
Woohoo redhat!!!!! That's cool.
It's short sleeved and very nice one.
Yaaahoooo!!!

Mad as MasterC!

Damn i wish there were some T-Shirts around with the big blue S on the front, and I'm a slacker! or something written on the back...

Oh well, I think i might grab one of those ones from the slackstore...I'm guessing its US based?

Yeah well this penguin game has nothing to do with Linux either. Doesn't me playing it though.
