Johnny Cupcakes...




Is silly!!! Dude I just got some t-shirts from johnny cupcakes yesterday and they are bomb! I dunno if you ever heard of them or not but the concept is pretty cool. It's like a bakery that makes shirts, but not baked goods. So the store is set up like a bakery but it's all t-shirts in the displays and the employees wear aprons. Pretty silly right?! Check it out: www.johnnycupcakes.com. I like it because all the designs are limited so it's kind of like you are buying art. I mean people pay shitloads of money for gay ass t-shirts like armani, and they all look the same!! Lacoste too, everyone thinks they are so cool, but they all look like the same tool. So I say mix it up holler at some johnny cupcakes son!

You Piece of Shirt!!!




Sooo...lately I been thinking about starting my own t-shirt design company. I have always been pretty good at drawing cartoons, and recently had some good ideas for t-shirt designs. All throughout elementary school and some middle school I drew a lot, but when I started playing guitar I had to pick one and dedicate all my focus to it. So naturally I picked the one that would produce more chicks, guitar duh! Boy was I right, being in a band is the best way to get chicks, enough said. Anyway, lately I have had this desire to draw again, as well as some good ideas for t-shirt designs. I made a prototype and had it printed through the company that I work with (see image above). I wore this shirt the other day and so many people were like, "Dude that shirt is tight! where did you get it?!" and im like dude, i made it. A lot of people said they would buy and wear it. So that got me thinking, hmm, its easy enough to buy a domain, so why not sell them online?! I am not expecting to become a millionare, I just want to utilize my creative outlet and share it with others. Plus making a few bucks on the side couldn't hurt :-). If anyone wants to help me with a web design holler!!! Oh, and on a sidenote, I am in a fantasy football league with some coworkers, and today i punished my opponent. Man I am silly at fantasy football. One more funny thing before I go, so I play a lot of Call of Duty 4 on xbox 360 online. It is a first person shooter set up like modern day warfare. It's probably the best game ever. The other night I was on playing with some friends and we were playing against these guys on another team. They were pretty friendly, kept asking how everyone was doing and if we were having fun. However, everytime we would start a new match they would be like hey guys good luck. I'm like dude uhh, you know this isn't real right, and even if it was, your our enemy, don't wish me good luck WTF?! This one dude was all talking about how he's a 10th level prestige and how he's so good. I was like wow man, that's awesome, I'm sure you can pretty much get any job you want now. Right before the last match, and i am not 100% positive, but I think one of the guys even said "Godspeed". wow.
