Free shirts are a good thing. Explaining the image on the shirt to strangers may be difficult, but if that's the total cost of the shirt, I'm happy to pay it. Or I can just never leave the house while wearing it.

If nothing else at least you have a shirt for laundry day.

vote-for16vote-against

I did! In for one! :) Seriously, @Jumbowoot you rock!

vote-for7vote-against

Wow, mind blown! Thanks guys!

Too bad it ships after I leave for the summer :( It will be waiting when I get back, though!

You have until June 5th to decide. If you want my vote, I'd say get it and make sure to wear it proudly.

At best, other people will simply not understand the message it is attempting to convey. At worst, it'll be a hit with that one guy sitting in the anti-Obama booth that is trying to collect signatures to impeach him, you know, the one that has a blown up picture of Obama sporting a Charlie Chaplain mustache. Don't pretend your city doesn't have one.

Anyways, love the write up that came with the e-mail, all told.
THANKS! @jumbowoot

I'll be getting one and I'll be wearing mine proudly. It even holds a double meaning for me since I'm deathly allergic to shellfish. Remember, a vote for dictator crab is a vote for death (for me).

@jumbowoot: Thanks again Jumbo, your gift-giving shenanigans are always the highlight of my month. And I have AWESOME months, crazy like you wouldn't believe, so that's saying something.

During these periods your name must get invoked like crazy...maybe you should make a @thanksjumbowoot or @jumbowootscool account, for such occasions.

@sykotek: It also holds a double meaning for me. Get it? ha.
I have crabs, that was the joke. Somebody was going to say it, I just wanted to be the first.

Also, let it be known...You can't "want three." Well, you CAN...you're just going to have to pay for the other two..

Also let it be known that I wasn't actually trying to get 3, just curious :D

I'm a REAL "DEAL" WOOTER! WHOO HOO!

vote-for4vote-against

Incredible generosity. Unexpected happiness. Jumbowoot.

Thank you so much.

vote-for4vote-against

In for 1, after all, it's free! Thanks @jumbowoot!

Did you notice there's no discussion area available on the shirt order page? I'm guessing it's because it's a secret page on shirt.woot.

vote-for3vote-against

@msklzannie: Yes, but that didn't stop somebody from posting it as a deal on deals.woot and I can leave a comment about it here or there. :]

vote-for4vote-against

This made me so happy that I puked a little.

vote-for2vote-against

I don't understand the free givings from Jumbowoot. I'm not going to lie, I want to get in on this because I'm jealous, but I just don't... get it. Like, how does he select the people that are picked?

I wanna be one of the cool kids! :(

vote-for4vote-against

in for one. Thanks @jumbowoot I will wear it proudly

vote-for1vote-against

I can't find the shirt -- can someone please post a link?

vote-for3vote-against

you could always teetrade it. i'm wearing mine proudly

thanks for the crabs @jumbowoot scratch

vote-for3vote-against

Viva la Crab! Thanks for the shirt!

vote-for3vote-against

Awesome! Thanks, Woot!

vote-for3vote-against

I just got my free crab shirt. Thanks Woot! I was hoping for just get a free shirt of my choice because I really want that portal shirt still. O well a free shirt is better than nothing.

vote-for2vote-against

Can I use my May Random Sale coupon code with this and Woot sends me $5?

vote-for3vote-against

How did they know I was crabby? Oh, yeah.....my posts. Meh.

vote-for4vote-against

I just ordered mine. I will wear with pride. Thanks again Woot!

I do not see the email. I think I qualify but I am not sure. What time was the email sent? What was the subject line. Thanks.

vote-for2vote-against

Thanks @Jumbowoot ! I appreciate the shirt, even if it's going to get some odd looks...

@crabnebula: Thank you.

Oh thank you too, Jumbo and team!

vote-for3vote-against

@ruf1o: I was thinking that also... at the very least I think it'll give us free overnight shipping!

vote-for2vote-against

Thanks from me as well. A nice surprise to wake up to this morning.

vote-for2vote-against

I appreciate the free t-shirt, but I would never wear this. Is there any way to transfer it to someone who would use it?

vote-for1vote-against

I just walked in the door from a week long camping trip and checked my email for the first time. How do you do it Woot? You always find a way to impress me. The shirt is notoriously grotesque but I'm sure I'll find something to do in it. Thanks @Jumbowoot and the Deals.Woot team.

@danthonyross: Hey, if you aren't interested in the shirt in the purchase screen you can change the shipping address...

If you feel inclined to do so, I'd be happy to forward my address. Just a simple college kid in Florida trying to get a free shirt. I vote and post occasionally and check every day, just not sure I voted anything fresh last month. I also buy LOADS of woot shirts so I feel I am more than worthy. :)

PM me and I'll tell you the address to change it to... If it's of no inconvenience to you of course.

Thanks in advance if you do, I'd appreciate it.

And anyone else who isn't interested should offer this same thing as well to others, plenty of people who didn't get the email seem to be interested. Can't use it for anything else and why waste a free shirt, why not "Pay it forward"?

vote-for1vote-against

Seriously? Who ever has strangers asking what the hell their shirt means? I have over 400 artistic shirts and wear nothing but T's every day. Not a single stranger has ever walked up to me and said "What's that all about?".

lol

@tattooedbear: must be the tough grimace you also put on along with them. :)
wear a tophat and tip it as people walk by. should get them curious

i rarely get asked, depending on who i wear it around. not usually by strangers though. might be my grimace lol
