perl is my bitch

You know of course, that the T-shirt from ThinkGeek that has Camel Code on it says on the front:

#! /usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
[download]

#!/usr/bin/perl
chmod 0666, '/etc/passwd' or die;

Goodness, now *that* would be a t-shirt I'd buy in an instant. Maybe this should be suggested to ThinkGeek - if enough people support it, I'm sure they'd do it. :)

So, how about it, fellow monks? Would there be demand for an actual shirt with this on it?

You can get iron-on transfer "paper" for your printer. The stuff is opaque with a white base, so it should work just fine on a black shirt.

For a project I did, I used individual pieces of the 8x10 stock with figures cut out and put all over the shirt, rather than just a single "page" in the center of the front and back. So, don't worry about the size of the stuff.

What I really want is a whiteboard shirt that I can customize on the fly...

But could you resist doodling yourself all day? :P

Well there is always David Clare's LED T-Shirt. With that you could have your favourite JAPH scrolling by for all to see :-}. I don't think its available yet, but he does have a backer now so its only a matter of time.

Remember that amateurs built Noah's Ark. Professionals built the Titanic.

Iron-on transfers sound nice, but I'd need a printer for that, so that's not an option right now (unless I would shamelessly want to waste company resources by using one of our office printers ;)).

A white-board shirt would be really cool, too, of course; however, I'm too lazy to build one and too impatient to wait for one. ;) Looking into various online printing services didn't yield much yet, either, unfortunately - there are lots that will happily print even a single t-shirt for you, but I haven't been able to find one yet that allows multiple lines of text *and* non-proportional font like Courier *and* doesn't limit line widths in a way that disallows things like chmod 0666, '/etc/passwd' or die;. Well, at least one I found says that almost everything they do is negotiable, so I'll send them an email inquiry about these things.

Apart from that, I guess I will continue looking tomorrow (really need some sleep for now), and if I don't find one, I'll just bug ThinkGeek about it until they give in. *g*

Dude, we have our own Cafepress store! Didn't you know?

LAI
:eof

Speaking of the cafepress store, is there any chance for different variations on designs? For instance, I like the design on the hoody, but I don't like hoodies, and would rather have it on a tshirt. Is there any chance that this could happen?

As a matter of fact, no, I didn't know - thanks for the pointer. Apart from that, at the risk of asking another stupid question - does cafepress offer printing on black t-shirts? I don't really think this'd look good on a white one (not that I particularly like white shirts, anyway).
