What is Your Nerdiest Shirt? (patches to all that post pictures!)
We've donned our nerdshirts, now where are yours?
What got its start as free vendor t-shirts from tech companies has now evolved into a full blown geek-fest of one-upsmanship and subtle winks to those in-the-know.
How many days has Matt walked into work with a shirt I had to patiently wait all day for someone else to question? All of them.
Now Gizmodo asks "What is Your Nerdiest Shirt?"
Be it gaming, coding, comics or YouTube, there's a shirt to express every one of our inner (or not so inner) geekeries.
What are your faves? Let's see 'em!
Feeling left out? (I am!)
Scope the goods at xkcd and Penny Arcade for some clever ways to join the flashmob.
I totally need that poster with the map of the internet. I keep getting lost. . .

Munchman's shirt is awesome!!! I want that one. I have a T-shirt from Google a couple of years ago that they were giving out at trade shows. It's in binary across the front and says GOOGLEKO - which is actually a blooper. It's supposed to say Google IO, so I told them about it, and the next year, they had a Lego shirt with a guy holding a glow-in-the-dark spray can; on the back in glow-in-the-dark is written "KO"
:) I'll try to get a pic of my shirt posted ASAP

Apart from my instructables shirt (anyone else get annoyed when someone says "It's a robot") my nerdiest (and favourite) is the following

LOL I have the same shirt. I saw it on Thinkgeek but locally there is an embroidery shop and they made it for about the same price but not inked, sewn. :)

Cool... I saw it on thinkgeek too, but bought it off ebay... thinkgeek is too expensive to ship to Australia.

127.0.0.1 is an IPv4 loopback IP address for localhost. It's pretty much just an IP address for the local computer.

The conected router is 192.168.0.1, the conected devices after that is 192.168.0.* (* being 2, 3, 4 and so on..). So - please tell me, how we get from 192 to 127?

Hahaha pretty good. I've always wondered how shadows are dark, but they don't attract energy via waves. Anybody know? I know dark colors attract more heat but why?
I proved that the speed of dark=the speed of light, in adv geometry. I lost the paper. :(

Haha, pretty good, I want one. Maybe in the back it could say "And what about shadows?" lol.

Orangeboards break if you have a patch. Excluding achievement patches though, but only admins can give those out (I HAVE ONE!). Try commenting on your own board, you'll FAIL

yeah i tryed to comment on those comments you made on my orange board but failed

BTW you should set up a forum topic to replace your broken board. That's what most people do.
You got it now? Sorry, I was out town for two weeks!
Sorry! I was on the road for the last couple weeks. Fixed!
DIY shirt FTW Hard to see, but I crossed out Microsoft and sharpied-in Canonical. (On the back the plan is to cross out the microsoft CAL license and replace with GNU...and cross out microsoft server software and replace with apache. :D

I have these: When I saw the "Pi" one i just felt inlove and bought one. I don't have a pic with the "Pi" shirt on, but I can upload one later :P
I have one somewhere (if the wife didn't toss it) that has two square pies on it and says: 2 pie are squared.
I figure this one is the geekiest because only three people have figured out who's on it. (Or at least told me so.) And one of them was Russian who got it straight from the portrait and not the supporting evidence.
*Ding* Yup, Pavlov it is!
I've had guesses everywhere from Freud to Alexander Graham Bell to "omfg that's so random!"

Mine's not so nerdy, but it is my favorite GEEK shirt :-) Although it LOOKS like just a normal everyday Instructables shirt, on the back is a smattering of the signatures of those wishing me well as I recovered from surgery (and yes, I acknowledge that quite a few did not get to sign it that wanted to). It is my must precious piece of clothing.
My heart. I had a Double bypass done and was out of commission for about 3-4 months or so.
I'm not sure if being 5 years old makes it "better" or "worse" to display geekdom, but alas I shall share this with the class:

Hilarious but correct me if I'm wrong but isn't it "Bowstaff Skills" not "Bow Hunting Skills"? just curious...
He does mention a gang tried to recruit him because of bo-staff skills, but I'm pretty certain during that part he says bow-hunting skills.

OMG, I so need the bad grammar one! Where can I buy that?
I actually had it made at a store here, so I'm not sure. There are a lot of places online to get shirts printed though.
