Title: Where'd the T-Shirts go?
Post by: lavacube on 19 August 2003, 01:05: I know I should probably search first, but I [for some odd reason] decided not to. :-D

Anyways, I remember there used to be T-Shirts you could order off the site back when the site was called "FuckMicrosoft.com".

I'm pretty sure that they're gone do to the new name... but I was wondering if there was going to be any new MicroSuck.com ones or what? I really want to order one.

Post by: Pissed_Macman on 19 August 2003, 02:02: Yeah, me too. I was always too scared to order one that said FuckMicrosoft, even the backwards ones.

#2 = because my school recieved the gates grant, and the whole school runs on microsoft, except video production there happen to be a few MACs.
#3 = micro would be dissing my principal

i have a MAC too, in fact i have 6 of them. it's always handy to have a few network cards. and your school can't stop you from having an opinion.

what sort of sick principal would show you wether or not he's "micro"?

Wasn't there a Daria episode where the entire school couldn't criticize some brand of soft drink because that soft drink brand was sponsoring the school? Corporate interests do not belong in the education system...

Post by: CommonSense on 22 August 2003, 08:26: Microsuck merchandise will make its appearance soon. I'd like to get the goddamn e-mail signup system back up, too, but that's kind of out of my hands. (cough)runkpock(cough)

Cafe Press kind of shut down the old fuckMicrosoft.com stoer because they thought having "Microsoft" in the name was a potential copyright violation. That actually was one of the factors in the renaming of this site. Microsuck should be harmless.
