I just counted.
I have 33 shirts hanging in my closet. Not that that’s all I have, but that is all that I want to take up closet space at any one time. And out of those 33 shirts, 25 are black, navy blue, or grey! Yeah, I like dark colors a lot.

Which is why today’s Shirt of the Day, Battle of Hiroshima, is a bit out of character for me.

Printed on a bright off-green, with bold colors, this is definitely not a conservative, understated “Artsy” shirt. But it’s FUN.
And what good is a T-shirt if it can’t be fun?

That, and robots will eventually take over the world and enslave us. So we’d better get used to seeing them around.

Just ask John Connor.

And here is the write-up from a review site:

By Fallen, “Battle of Hiroshima,” is a new take on the “clash of the Titans,” motif. Instead of our friendly neighborhood Godzilla, we’ve got a squid-looking-monster-thing battling it out with a robot. Looks like the robot has a dual-core processor. Best thank Intel for that.

But one wonders about setting. I know Tokyo would’ve been blase, but Hiroshima?

I ask you: Haven’t they had enough all ready? Now they gotta deal with all that rampaging mutant BS?

That’s a bit over-kill.

Sometimes people give me a hard time because I can’t go for long times without having to pee. Urinate. Relieve myself. Whatever is the correct term that will cause the least amount of consternation, that’s what I do.

Whether it’s driving longer distances, a movie, or a bike ride of any significant duration, things in my life get disrupted by having to go pee. When seeing a movie, I pride myself on being able to pick a spot to run and pee really quick. After an action scene is the best time, as that is usually some “down time” in the plot.

However, I have came across a great service that tells you when to pee so you don’t miss anything!

It’s called (not surprisingly) RunPee.com. You pick the movie, and it will tell you the running time, asking “Can you hold it this long?”

If you can’t, it will give several strategic points in the movie to go and relieve yourself. Indicated on a timeline with a dot, also saying “RunPee approximately 1 hour 7 minutes into the movie when…”

It will also tell you how long you will have at this point saying “You have approximately 5 minutes while:” then giving a scrambled box that you can unscramble (if you want the spoiler) to find out what is going on in these 5 minutes that you are gone peeing.

Brilliant.

Today’s Shirt of the Day is Phoenix Rising from shirt.woot. It’s a great take on the Phoenix, the mythical bird that dies in flames and is reborn from the ashes.

It was created by MissMonster. Check out her other designs and her art. It’s simply wonderful. I don’t know where her inspiration comes from, but it’s not from this planet.
