I made up a tee shirt for all us vapers that disagree with the FDA proposals, here is the link: http://teespring.com/fightforvape
Well that's the great thing about this country Jeremy. If you and m3rma1d don't like it....don't order and move on, it's that simple.Nice! It's not only crass and unlikeable, but borderline copyright infringement at best!
I know the white has fewer days left than the black, and I believe they go up to 3xI'll place my order Friday.Thanks for the 7 days left to order.....offering xxl right ?
Excellent advice in any case! Make one that's original and not derivative and i'd definitely consider it, no doubt.Well that's the great thing about this country Jeremy. If you and m3rma1d don't like it....don't order and move on, it's that simple.
No, you wouldn't. Cause I have nothing nice to say about the FDA. It's ALL politically incorrect and derivative lolExcellent advice in any case! Make one that's original and not derivative and i'd definitely consider it, no doubt.
Instead of using Logic we go on a pissing match bahh I would never buy it or wear itNice! It's not only crass and unlikeable, but borderline copyright infringement at best!
Have you ever heard of Calvin and Hobbes? Have you never seen that little boy pissing on things anywhere? Is that 100% your own original work? That's what derivative means.No, you wouldn't. Cause I have nothing nice to say about the FDA. It's ALL politically incorrect and derivative lol
This is EXACTLY what I wanted this shirt to do. It's creating debate about it, for and against. The shirt is my view of what the FDA is to me. That is absolutely your right not to wear it! But just remember, all this "controversy" and debate about it....is just putting this thread at the top each and every time. So the word is getting spread no matter if you are for or against this shirt being out there.Instead of using Logic we go on a pissing match bahh I would never buy it or wear it

Yes I have seen it, that's why I got the image off google and added the FDA logo. As fas as the definition of derivative...you got me there lol, my mind immediately went to derogativeHave you ever heard of Calvin and Hobbes?

So....rednecks aren't welcomed here....wow, way to stigmatize a group of people thereSo, any attention is good attention? ADD much?
Vaping is looking to gain RESPECTABILITY, not redneck love. You want to fight the FDA, take a nice big package and leave it on their door..they'll love it.

I'm not stigmatizing anyone, I'm stating a fact. To win against the Gov't, you have to play their game.
I hate the FDA as much as anyone, even long before vaping existed, but this just comes off as juvenile and when you add in copywrite infringement, it's also illegal..
This sort of shit appeals to nobody except the lowest common denominator. Is that how vaping should be publicized?
The WHOLE point of the shirt is that it's a NOVELTY shirt. Whether you agree with what it's showing or not. A lot of people think its funny, I have only had a few critics about it. Is it politically incorrect? ABSOLUTELY! But out of controversy sparks debate. This shirt was not meant to be taken seriously, hence the NOVELTY. Just like the novelty mod skin wraps of F*CK the FDA, it's a novelty...just done on a bigger size scale and more visible.
Look at post #2 of this thread, so you feel that Vapor Joe is a redneck of the lowest common denominator, sure he'll appreciate that lmao
Look, [user]brugmanncues[/user], my only real point here is that i am sure you could do better than this.
Maybe do a similar illustration with @VaporJoes caricature instead... although even that would be unoriginal actually, since that image is played the fuck out.
What about a B-52 dropping a bomb shaped like a juice bottle on the FDA logo, and some famous vaper's caricature (with their permission of course) leaning out the window grinning? Also, #Pluidchemtrails
Nah, use it if you want. I'm pretty much open source.I actually like that idea of the B-52 Jeremy but I won't use it since you came up with the idea for it. In all seriousness, I really do like that idea!
Political correctness has drifted from its original intent over the years, at least in terms of public perception. All it means is not being an asshole to others. Not going out of one's way to make things more difficult. Accessibility is one of the great realizations of this. Another is the reduction of derogative terminology when referring to people who are different from the speaker. We generally don't call people cripples, retards, faggots, or terribly racist or bigoted things anymore as a culture, except occasionally as satire (to varying effect), and there is no way on Earth anybody could ever convince me that's a bad thing.There is so much political correctness going on here, it's starting to give Al Gore a rash lmao
Nah, use it if you want. I'm pretty much open source.
Actually, I just saw a clip art that I purchased and I think you will like it, as well as others! I'll keep you posted man, and thanks for your input!Nah, use it if you want. I'm pretty much open source.
I'm actually very happy about that. I'd opened up Illustrator and was about to make something for you, but i am so distracted and off my game today it just wasn't going to turn out any good and would have put me through no end of frustration. I'm sure yours will turn out much better. If you need any help though, let me know.Actually, I just saw a clip art that I purchased and I think you will like it, as well as others!

That was not the point there already is controversy in regards to Vaping and your shirt did not create it... Never mind hahaThis is EXACTLY what I wanted this shirt to do. It's creating debate about it, for and against. The shirt is my view of what the FDA is to me. That is absolutely your right not to wear it!

Due to the amount of detail on this layout, there needs to be a preorder of 50 before they will be made.
