Mark from Calling Marcel and Subata along with his “buddy dan”, who I know nothing else about, have started this excellent little line of tees with a message. I mean, I know that “Free Moustache Rides” one you’re wearing has a message, but Robata is a bit more sophisticated, and a helluva lot more tasteful. A story behind them. Such as this one designed around the story of Yuri Gagarin, the first astronaut to orbit the Earth. Aparently his family was forced out of their home by Nazis, his sisters were kidnapped and held until after the war ended, he was inspired by a hard landing Mig outside his home, went on to be the first person the USSR sent into space even though they assumed he would die on re-entry… and crashed his Mig during routine training… and died.

Argh! That piece of shit of a website has a rather LOUD flash intro. You could have warned a guy.
TeeJunkie: oh. sorry ’bout that. I meant to mention the intro but forgot. But c’mon, piece of shit? you got a design portfolio you’d like for us to look at?

The design work may well have been gorgeous… I will never know because I closed the site as soon as it blasted my ears out over my music.
The portfolio on the website may well be brilliant - but the site itself is still a piece of shit.
TeeJunkie: okay.

That was a bit harsh/aggressive sorry. I hate websites with sound, a lot. Still, I could have just said “I hate websites with sound, a lot” instead.
TeeJunkie: okay. you’re forgiven… and I gotta agree with you though. I hate music and sounds on sites too.
