I work at a TV station, and we are about 50% Mac's to PC users. The station head prefers us to use our big fancy Avid Media Composer system, but a few of us rebel and edit on Final Cut Pro.
Anyway, most everyone here is young and hip so the "Get a Mac ads" always crack us up. Cancel/Allow has been a buzz phrase around the office since the ad went live a few days ago. Today the IT guy decided to install Vista on one of the Media Composer PC's to test it out.
A zillion "Cancel or Allow" messages followed, and all the Mac users laughed at the whole thing. (Media Composer is not too happy with Vista so far, in case you wondered).
Anyway, the boss was out of the office today, so that gave me reason to run to Staples, buy some crappy ink jet printer iron-on pages, and whip up some shirts for all the mac users. The off color is from the crappy iron on transfer...

Did you put that in the inside of the shirt? I can see the tagless tag in the cancel side.

It's a tagless tee, so the 'tag' is printed on the inside of the shirt. Pretty crappy choice for something that's not meant to be an undershirt.

I suppose I too much of a scum bag to really care if people can see a printed tag.

Five bucks for 5 tee's at Wal-Mart is why they are crappy shirts. These are iron on transfer tee's, I wasn't going for super quality.
More for the joke of it. I'm wearing it to work once with all the other mac people today(made 5 and handed em out), and then probably never going to wear it again.
