64D T-shirts

acid suggested that 64D make t-shirts and have people wear them to promote the site. He said we should use this as a way to generate money, but didn't explicitly say to sell the shirts, so I'm not sure how this would help make money.

But that's why he's the marketing genius, and I'm just the guy who keeps spelling genius as genious.

Anyway, this is totally not going to happen, but I think a solid coloured crimson 64D logo (we don't really have an official one) would look cool on the front of a black t-shirt. And on the back, written across the upper back in white text, would just be some slogan. There could be a handful of different shirts with different slogans.

"Driven by lazyness"

"Member ID #2"

"Hand coded in front of a live audience"

And so on. Basically a collection of "64D memes" (I just heard you grind your teeth and cringe) and sub-banner text (I don't know what it's called).

The idea of 64D apparel has been around for like 8 years, but I thought I'd bring this idea up, to see if anyone would actually be interested in a shirt from 64D (I will not make one, but my ego will feel good), and what you think would be cool.

I think Canadonian has the vector.

You should all get shirts then meet up with me at CCEE. Large block of same shirts = interest.

Well, there'll be some big names there.

But… C– = B, and B has the same pitch as C♭ :(
I mentioned programming languages, so obviously the joke is about programming!

I don't think Snakeman would know that.

Quote:
So saying that something is coded in B# is the same as saying something is coded in C!
I'm dying inside.

C major 4 lyfe. Fuck them blacks.
Fucking racist.

THE JOKE IS NOT ABOUT MUSIC

The joke is that C– and C♭ are bastardizations of C++ and C#, restyled to seem more "negative" because 64D runs on mind-altering code and user tears.

And let the flame wars commence.

I like how whenever anything about the community in general gets posted, there's this general trend of acceptance, idea-tossing, and then jokes, then crossing-the-line jokes, warns, and then eventually we become an imageboard.

I might go to RTX and/or SGC this summer, I guess I'd wear the shirt there, though I don't think it would do much for the site.

I like how you managed to do all of that in a single comment.

We're all part of the system, maaaaaaaaaaaaan
