FUNNY MAY THE FOURTH STAR WARS SHIRTS
It’s the Official Unofficial Star Wars Day.
Coined a long time ago in a place far, far away (the ‘70s in the UK) May 4th became May the Fourth. Since then, Star Wars fans all across the globe have recognized today as Star Wars Day.
Use the fourth wisely to read as many of the books as you can. Use the fourth wisely to watch all of the movies. Like Yoda all day, use the fourth wisely and speak. Use the fourth wisely to play with this Yoda translator. Use the fourth wisely and share all of your Star Wars jokes before tomorrow.
We wish we could bask in our love for Star Wars everyday, but, alas, the force is strongest on the fourth. So before the walls close in around you, use the fourth wisely to customize a Parody Star Wars shirt! We’ve created Star Wars parody art by combining elements of the classic story with other pieces of art and pop culture. A bold blend of the finest arts, a re-mix of relevance, a modern mash-up, if you will.
On this epic day, with you may the fourth be.
For the information, thank you, Wikipedia.

HAPPY 420 FROM FUNNY SHIRTS
Happy April 20th, Stoners!
No one can really be sure how the number 420 became so inextricably associated with smoking weed, but it is and it’s here. There are many explanations and highdeas about how the term “four twenty” came to mean getting high and this article from HuffPost makes a pretty good case, but the real truth of the matter is that we don’t care how it started.
We’re just really really happy such a beautiful day exists.
Custom Star Wars Parody Tees, Tanks, and Sweats
Well those guys (and gal) contributed some pretty amazing and innovative works of art to society and helped shaped the way we understand and appreciate art and music today.
Star Wars is the most epic story of all time and is equally as groundbreaking and significant in the fabric of pop culture.
In honor of the upcoming Star Wars Day, May the Fourth, we have created three original illustrations combining the styles of Glaser, Warhol, and Munch and some of our favorite Star Wars characters.
The Custom Chewy parody sweatshirt is a reference to Milton Glaser’s famous poster of singer, song writer, flower power era icon, Bob Dylan.
Marilyn Monroe was the princess of 60’s, but Princess Leia is an intergalactic icon. Gift a Princess Leia Warhol tee to the biggest Star Wars fan you know. Our Princess Leia design is a parody of Andy Warhol’s legendary Marylin Diptych.
NOOOOOOO one in all of the universe can do The Scream like Darth Vader. Customize your tee, tank, or hoodie and recreate one of the most famous paintings of all time. Edvard Munch’s, Expressionist era, The Scream is noted as being “an icon of modern art.” Be a trend-setting icon of modern t-shirts in this Star Wars parody design.
However you choose to customize the coolest Star Wars parody apparel is up to just don’t wait a long time because May the Fourth is not far, far away.
I CAN’T KEEP CALM. I’m Designing a Custom Shirt.
We’re more than thankful the trend still strikes the funny bones of our customers. Our custom Keep Calm shirts are a hit!
But what warrants a giggle even more than paraphrased old British war propaganda? NOT KEEPING CALM BECAUSE THERE IS TOTAL REASON TO FREAK OUT. (Liiiike the Second World War is coming?)
Design your custom I CAN’T KEEP CALM shirt because there are plenty of reasons to lose control. Customize an I CANT KEEP CALM shirt for your family reunions, vacations, concerts, holidays or just because you’re drunk.
There are plenty of reasons to lose composure. A Custom I CANT KEEP CALM shirt is certainly one of them.

“Why do you keep calling my Calvin?” Rick & Morty Parody Shirts
This “Why do you keep calling my Calvin?” design from our collection of Rick & Morty parody shirts represents the ever elusive Triple Entendre. We see Double Entendres every day. But a Triple Entendre? Oooh, those are special.
There are thee references:
-Rick and Morty
-Back to the Future
-Calvin and Hobbes
How do they all tie together? Let’s take a inter-dimensional trip through the worlds of three classic pieces of pop culture to figure it out.
……………………………………………………………………
Rick and Morty is our new favorite show on Adult Swim, and is partly inspired by Doc and Marty from Back to the Future. One of our Rick and Morty designs is illustrated in the style of Calvin and Hobbes. In fact, it is a rather accurate reflection of the cover art from Scientific Progress Goes Boink, but with Morty and Rick (aka Marty and Doc) in the place of Hobbes and Calvin.
It’s pretty clear that Rick, Doc, and Calvin all have something in common: they’re all crazy inventors. Dreamers. Doers. Mad scientists. Well, not “mad”, but definitely scientists. In this particular scene from Scientific Progress Goes Boink, Calvin has just invented the duplicator. He’s obviously a genius, because his only materials seem to be a marker and a cardboard box. A box, which by the way, would go on to become a transmogrifier as well.
What else do they have in common? The name Calvin. And the curiosity about this name.
In this art, Calvin #2 (aka Morty #2) has just emerged from the duplicator. He is brand new to this world. He knows nothing. Not even his name. Why do you keep calling me Calvin?
This is the same question that Marty asks in Back to the Future.
……………………………………………………………………
When watching Back to the Future, have you ever noticed that half the dialog is comprised of jokes contrasting 1985 and 1955? The joke format is roughly this: Here in 1985, we’re doing all these crazy things that would seem totally alien to someone in 1955, including…
-electing an actor to the presidency
-drinking caffeine free soda
-wearing underwear with brand names printed all over them.
This last joke is delivered by Marty’s Mom, Lorraine. When Marty hits his head in front of his mom’s house, she takes care of him. Marty is knocked out cold, and apparently Lorraine removes his pants while he sleeps. (Kind of creepy, right?). It leads to this conversation:
……………………………………………………………………
Lorraine Baines: I’ve never seen purple underwear before, Calvin.
Marty McFly: Calvin? Wh… Why do you keep calling me Calvin?
Lorraine Baines: Well, that is your name, isn’t it? Calvin Klein? It’s written all over your underwear.
……………………………………………………………………
So in this mash-up art, we are combining Back to the Future and Rick & Morty and Calvin & Hobbes to make one cohesive statement, or rather, to ask one cohesive question: Why do you keep calling me Calvin?
Edit: we received a cease & desist letter from Turner’s attorneys. We’re very sad. We genuinely believed our designs were parody and constituted “fair use”. More is explained here.

NEW RICK & MORTY PARODY ART FOR YOUR CUSTOM SHIRTS & APPAREL
Good news, Rick & Morty fans! And Futurama fans! And Calvin and Hobbes fans! And Back To The Future fans!
We’ve created brand new art partly insprired by Adult Swim’s Rick & Morty, combined with the illustration characteristics of three other popular series! (Yes, our designers are quite talented).
You can now create a completely customized Rick & Morty t-shirt, hoodie, iPhone case, coffee mugs, and more with your favorite scientific, drunk grandpa and his overlooked, lovable grandson!
Obviously, we are huge fans of Rick & Morty, and made these designs out of love. We’re also huge fans of Justin Roiland and Dan Harmon in general. We hope you’re not mad, Justin & Dan! If you are, please email us. We wanted to make some Rick & Morty designs, and there are such things as Fair Use and Parody, so we thought “hey, let’s give it a shot!”
Take an interdimensional tour through our design center and create your own totally customized Rick & Morty apparel! You can add your own text, art, and even images. However, please be cool and don’t add any character names or upload logos or things like that. We’re kind of in a grey area here with the whole parody-fair-use thing so we don’t want to print anything with character names or official images. We love these shows. We want them to love us.
BUURP Don’t forget to watch Rick & Morty on Adult Swim, Mondays at 10:30pm!
