Title: knapping elements
Post by: le0n on June 17, 2016, 09:00:38 pm

i'm thinking of making me one of these in the next few weeks:

(this is a first draft, so i might tweak a few things on the design)

it's based on the concept from another shirt i got about a year ago:

it's fun when people figure this out. like when i was checking out at the register the other day and the chick had a puzzled look on her face while ringing up my items. i knew she was working on the answer, but the clock was ticking away.

she finally caved when she had no more items to scan...

cashier: "ok. i give up. what does that even mean?"
me: "o m g"
cashier: "oh my god, i feel so slow now!"
me: "i see what you did there ;)"
sacker: "hah hah hah"

^^ it's good to laugh.

also, i'm leaning on adding a point to the front too.

i just need to find one, but here is sort of what i was thinking:
