Geek Apparel of the Week: Gremlin Mantra
I’m sorry to run Geek Apparel this week, because, frankly, the above shirt is sold out. Totally. But Jesus, it’s so fucking awesome that I felt duty-bound to let you guys know of its existence, so that maybe you could head over to Monsieur T and perhaps kindly ask for another run or something. In my opinion, this is hands down the greatest geek shirt I have ever seen, and since my wardrobe is about 70% nerd shirts, that’s saying something. All hail TR reader Mittens for the tip.
About The Author
Robert Bricken is one of the original co-founders of the site formerly known as Topless Robot, and its first editor-in-chief, serving from 2008-12. He brought the site to prominence with “nerd news, humor and self-loathing” as its motto, raising it from total internet obscurity to a readership in the millions, with help from his savage “FAQ” movie reviews and Fan Fiction Fridays. Under his tenure Topless Robot was covered by Gawker, Wired, Defamer, New York magazine, ABC News, and others, and his articles have been praised by Roger Ebert, Avengers actor Clark Gregg, comedian and The Daily Show correspondent John Hodgman, the stars of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Rifftrax, and others. He is currently the managing editor of io9.com. Despite decades as both an amateur and professional nerd, he continues to be completely unprepared for either the zombie apocalypse or the robot uprising.
