I'd have gone with the "soothing green light" shirt as #1 and "Get back to work!" as #2, but that's me.
Mainline Geek Culture - via what network media? (Score:5, Insightful)
But, being a geek, I have an annoying nitpick. The modular plug is for a three-pair cable (RJ-14). Why do a modem cable when broadband is so popular. Most ethernet connections are four-pair (RJ-45).
If you wanted to be retro geeky, use the BNC connector for 10Base-2 (ThinNet).

But have you wondered to offer some T-Shirt's to some members, the most participating ones, the ones with most Karma, etc...?
After all, what would Slashdot be without them?

It's also probably the only one of these (the winners) that I'd buy, so to each his own. How can you go wrong mixing geek culture with drug culture? It's a perfect marriage.
I do sorta like the "soothing green light" one also, but probably not enough to buy one.

Yes. They're called "plain" or "unprinted" shirts.
Why pay extra for the privilege of becoming a walking billboard?

Leave it to a geek to forget that some things are just _PLAIN_ subjective art on t-shirts is just one example.
If CT was worried about "critisism" then there would have been no Slashdot in the first place. Personaly I enjoy looking at other peoples creations.

I'm surprised that some overly sensitive person hasn't complained about using drug paraphernalia to promote slashdot. Not that there's any kind of positive public image to be upheld, but still.
