Pardon me if this is a D_B, but I just noticed this. You can buy t-shirts on cnn.com that feature the headline of a story on the front of the shirt.

I just want to ask: What the ****?

http://www.cnn.com/tshirt/?headline=Boy%20charged%20with%20sharing%20nude%20cell%20pics&fhash=45ebe4144022b12f1c0f61df4500208b&date=1209037209000&hash=dd944dc4138fec7e45949e3e24898edd&return_uri=http://www.cnn.com/video/%23/video/tech/2008/04/24/delacruz.cell.phone.porn.cnn
 
Fark (at least I think it was fark) had a great thread on these a week or so back. Apparently it's not that hard to beat the system and create your own headline.
 
Can I get a shirt with the headline "Bush impeached, faces 10 years in PMITA federal prison?"

I like

"Penguin convicted of war crimes"

myself.
 
CNN may have fixed it ... but not before much fun was had

Can I just get the girl on the snorgtees.com ad that always shows up with "shirt" is typed in a thread? Good God!

Edit: Since the damn ad changed on me, here is a pic of the Snorgtees.com Girl. The one of her in the side-saddle ad is better, but this isn't bad:

She looks like a much hotter version of Natalie Portman than the real Natalie Portman.

Or on virtually any SportsJournalists.com thread, where the joke pops up.

Who the hell is looking at the words on her shirt?

The words are covering the part (parts?) we're all looking at. You can't help but notice them.




Personally, I think this is the idea that could save newspapers. I'm going to suggest to our business dept that we start selling t-shirts with our headlines on them. Can you imagine: "Workshop aims to improve downtown corridor" on a t-shirt? We'd sell out of those faster than a hannah montana concert (that oughta spark a whole new set of ads on here).

I'm with BBAM. I didn't even register in my mind what was on her shirt.
 
Sign me up for a shirt.

And Snorg girl is so hot, I forgive her for being an atheist who goes to Auburn.
