Well, at least Valve isn't quite this bad (I'd love some of their P2 posters, it has to be said).

By the way, PieGuy, love the avatar; took me a moment to figure out where I'd seen it before, then, bam! 'Oh, he's another fan.'

I think it was meant to be cheesy. The shirt I mean, not PieGuy's avatar.

Incredi-cheesy. I wouldn't go walking in a shirt like that, too embarrassing :S. I'm still looking for a cool shirt to buy based around P-Body though.

See if anyone has any spare PAX East P-Body ones, they were really nice. I'm more of an Atlas person, though.

THE HUNGER GAMES ARE THE GREATEST BOOK EVAR RITTEN. I'm still reading Catching Fire, though, so DON'T SPOIL ANYTHING.

I was quite surprised, actually, to find out that WinstonSmith actually did a project-type-thing, in Source I'm assuming, on the series. He mentions it in his page on the VDC. By the way, those t-shirts are pretty similar to the PAX East ones (minus the asbestos lining). Unfortunately, I'm in England, so shipping costs way too much for it to be practical.

Hoo boy, did not see that one coming. I honestly didn't know anyone had even looked at (much less read) my VDC page. And yeah, I made a few demo levels. Not that good though, mainly because I was fairly new to Source mapping. Anyway, The Hunger Games is a good series. Haven't read Mockingjay yet though.

And I actually like this t-shirt somewhat, the joke's been done to death so much that it's really like collecting pennies of different years. Yeah, they're common, but it would still be neat to have a lot of different t-shirts.

I think. When I look at it sometime later that logic probably won't make much sense.

The sirt may be cheesy, yes. But its quite well drawn, and it almost looks like a "mikes hard lemonade" ad at a distance. I think more people would wear somethin like this if Portal2 were more mainstream. As it stands its a great refernce to something nobody will get.

The "lame" more refers to the fact that "exploding lemons" jokes aren't funny. Leave it to the Portal fanbase to drive a joke straight into the ground right out of the gate.

I'll admit that a lot of the lemon jokes have been done to death. But this one seem to be more of a intentional, over-exaggerating, lemon shirt. Maybe it's done beyond death.

wasn't necessarily a bad thing! Heck, I ordered the "Love Never Lies" t-shirt when they had it up.

Moral of post: Not everything with "furry" in it is bad.
