Cool Work Shirts?

RyuMaou asks: "I just started a job today and noticed I was the only guy wearing a golf shirt. Everyone else had long-sleeve button-downs on. So, I got home and went right to ThinkGeek to buy some Tux button-down collar shirts. But, horror of horrors, they were gone! Where can I get them, or others like them? I'd settle for the Geek.com propeller-head logo, but I'd really like Linux logo gear of all kinds. Anyone?"

    You're worried about a lack of formality...so you're wearing ThinkGeek clothing?

    Did I miss something?

  2. WTF? by Faux_Pseudo · · Score: 4, Funny

    We have reached a time in the world where nerds are now asking for
    fashion advice. I am not sure if this person is so out of touch with
    reality that he is unaware that he is asking for the blind to lead the
    blind or if some major paradigm shift has happened in the world that
    I must have missed while hacking away at my terminal that is lit 24
    hours a day by just a red light and has days worth of dishes
    piled up on the the top of the shelves that house all of my O'Reilly
    books.

    Can someone try to clear this up for me?

    When your mommy stops dressing you, you have to turn to CmdrTaco, CowboyNeal, & Co.

    And your asking for fashion tips from /. Dude, I have two coding shirts that I rotate. The first one is neon orange and says, "It's my duty, to please that booty." The other one was from a Math Contest I won in high school with a Maple plot of:

    tubeplot([3*cos(2*t) + cos(3*t), -3*sin(2*t) + sin(3*t), 1.2*sin(5*t)], t=0..2*Pi, radius=0.6);

    If your gonna ask a fashion question on /. ask what fabrics are coke-resistant. Ask what the best way is to print off Natalie Portman pics to paste onto t-shirts. Ask how to install the Linux kernel on your zipper. Ask how to build a Beowulf cluster of leisure suits.

  4. Bowling shirts by extra88 · · Score: 4, Funny

    It's never too early to start working on your manager to get bowling shirts for everyone in your group. Tell him it would be a morale booster, that it would be good for team building. Tell him that's what the boss did at your last job (leave out the part about your last job being at a bowling alley).
