Geek Apparel of the Week: Death Disco
Contrary to my dislike of “I’m Your Boogie Man” in Watchmen while the Comedian brutalizes a rioting crowd the other day (and after I remember it’s going to be going on while Comedian punches women, I’m having second thoughts), I like disco. Hell, I love “I’m Your Boogie Man.” I got no problems with disco. Which means I got no problems with this shirt, currently selling for $25 over at Red Bubble. I have zero doubt there was a disco located somewhere on the Death Star; Stormtroopers and Moffs can’t work all the time. (Via Gizmodo)
