I’m guessing you misspelled “Burgundy” in order to elude some sort of copyright? Either way this shirt is pretty terrible. It’s just some poorly aligned fonts! Do you even have the legal right to reproduce them??
This is just really poorly executed all around. Poor font choice, placement, sizing, and that half-silhouette is just awful. This was a funny idea, but the execution is just extremely sub-par here.
My conclusion to why this shirt was picked for the shirt of the day was that this shirt was put out as an experiment to see how many dumb fashionless nerds would buy a worthless ugly not funny shirt.
My resources to my conclusion:
-My eyes looking at the shirt
-the shirt appearing to be moRe duMbEr than I can explain (yes I said “MORE” DUMBER, its THAT DUM)
-and the shirt would make you look like a giant TURD and im not just saying that because the shirt is brown
@ Grammar Nazi…. I’ve sent in a revised version with the spelling correction. Thanks for pointing that out. Your Fuhrer would be proud. Sorry for those who don’t like the design. Better luck next time.
Not only does the shirt fail hard, the creator is a douche for invoking Goodwin’s law. Just because somebody pointed out your crappy spelling error doesn’t mean you can compare them to someone who killed a bunch of Jewish people. Idiot.
@Nice…the person to whom he is speaking does call itself “Grammar NAZI,” so I think he/she/it kind of brings that comparison on himself/herself/itself.
As for the design: clever idea, but I really don’t care for Will Ferrel.
People on this site have gotten really mean lately. It’s one thing to have a negative opinion, it’s another to be mean about it. If it keeps up, I’m going to have to stop wearing my RIPT shirts, lest people assume I am mean.
I agree with @AVA, people have gotten mean! There’s no need for so much negativity people. You don’t like the design, understood. But someone put time and effort into making that design so give theem a little credit. You can’t be pleased with every shirt put up, so if you don’t like the design you don’t have to buy it. Put your mean words aside. :)
You know, a lot of the comments are really un-called for today. I’m not a fan of this shirt it’s self, and I agree when people say it could be executed better, particularly the typefaces and how they’re composed, but to be as rude as you people are is truly wrong. On a lot of the other tee sites, it’s customary to give constructive criticism, not rip the artist’s heart out. It just seems that here and Tee Fury, the trolls have dominated the comments pages. I’d love to see some work from the trolls on this site.
Agreed, if you don’t like the design you don’t have to take it as such a dramatic personal insult. Chill the eff out people. If you don’t like it, move on and check back tomorrow. Sheesh.
First to the artist, the design is great. Don’t worry about people hating on you it just means they are sad unartistic trolls. Secondly, the design works perfectly. The artist was copying the Johnny Walker bottle design which mixes several different fonts. These are the same fonts the author used. So if you have a problem with th design call up the Johnny Walker company. Again sweet design. Stop hating.
I agree with Johnny. Just because you may not be old enough to go into a liquor store and see the the source material for the parody doesn’t give you the right to bash it. I think it’s a lovely shirt and I’m going to recommend it to my friends for their band. What are they called you ask? Rich Mahogany and the Leather Bound Books.
Yeah…. the half-silhouette is from Johnny Walker bottles. If you want to cry about that, go do it on the steps of the most widely recognized brand of scotch in the world.
Well, it’s not obscure at all… but I hate this movie. That’s just me though, I know there are ferocious fans of it. The metallic ink is going to rule though!
Disregard the Haters. I think you have to get the references to appreciate this shirt and I myself love it. I’m a big Ron Burgundy fan and also a big Johnny Walker fan. Keep up the awesome work!
Constructive criticism is always helpful, but being just mean is not. I think this shirt is hilarious. “You know I don’t speak Spanish! In English please.”
I’m almost afraid to say it, but i feel like some of today’s critics are missing the parody. The sillhouette is a spot-on hybrid of Johnny Walker and Ron Burgundy..If you’re an artist and you drop this into photoshop you can see that maybe the lines of text aren’t EXACTLY parallel, but let’s face it – 99% of people who look at your shirt on the street aren’t artists.
Hopefully tommorrow there’s a shirt that meets your standards of perfection.
This site seriously needs to start requiring confirmed registration before commenting so dickheads can be banned. There’s absolutely no reason to be so pissy if you don’t like a shirt. Protip: RIPT is a business and dollars speak loader insults.
Give someone a free hug today, to compensate for all this hating. Like others have said, there’s constructive criticism, and then there’s being a total douche bag. Try to stick with the former, haters.
@Guy that hates Grammar Nazi
Nice damn name!
And as you maybe can tell by my name… I’ll be buying this shirt. Nota huge fan of the movie, but this line always cracked me up.
Johnnie Walker Blue Label is the best scotch I have ever drank.
Thanks for the positive support everyone. And as far as my bio, it’s meant to be a joke. Don’t take everything so literaly. Thanks again to those who got the joke.
for those that do not like the font.. maybe they should of used the font off the Bud Light bottles your drinking. Or maybe you guys are not old enuf to drink yet and do not see that it is a Johnnie Walker Scotch bottle he used.
I love Scotch. Scotchy, Scotch, Scotch. I drink my scotch while living in Summerville, SC, just outside of the city of Charleston. If you’re ever in the area, ask people about my tattooing. I don’t know how to say this, but I’m kind of a big deal. People know me! Hope you all like the design! Jason Reed

@grammar: where did u get that insult? From the toliet store?
A funny design, I think I would have liked it on burgundy :3
But I’ll spread the word :)

This is just really poorly executed all around. Poor font choice, placement, sizing, and that half-silhouette is just awful. This was a funny idea, but the execution is just extremely sub-par here.

Isn’t it like that on a almost daily basis?

Hmz…
For the first time in history (buying shirts with this and a few others sites for five years now) i am going to say:
“I dont get it.”
And I really have to agree on the comments about the placements of the fonts.
Sorry Jason, with you’re lovely bio :P

well, when i read the “down into your belly” part, it is in Ron Burgundy’s voice. that is a success.

Just don’t get it. To obscure for me and a lot of the people I have shown it to.

How about some of you make a shirt that’s better, then you can talk crap. You aren’t required to buy the shirt, so slow your roll.

Too bad I hate Will Ferrell so much. And that movie.
Metallic gold ink, oh la la!

purchased! Awesome shirt, awesome design and clever to boot. Well played sir.

People seriously don’t get this reference? Anchorman is not even a little obscure. I love lamp? Anyone?
Anyways I think it’s clever, people hating on the design need to calm down
DreadPirateSteve
Quit whining you lot. This is a funny shirt. You are a bunch of ridiculous nitpickers.

Great design, but for fuck’s sake people it’s JohnnIE Walker, with an IE, not a Y.

It made me laugh the minute I saw it. Seriously considering it for a birthday gift for my brother who is a HUGE Anchorman fan.

Great Odin’s Raven! I love the Anchorman reference…I was thinking of doing one myself. Props to J. Reed for the design…keep it up man…I love lamp!
