Dear Idiots...

... all these tees are shit.

At Summerjunk we're not totally against the slogan tee, but this is just the worst. And everywhere I go, it seems every other person is some brainless chump who's completely oblivious to the fact that this is not fucking funny, it never was, and especially isn't now. These pictures below took me approximately 8 seconds to find, and my broadband has been playing up. This is pretty much on a par with the 'Cunning Stunts' tees you used to see, and I thought things could only go up from there...

The thing is, I know people see others wearing these and think "Yes! That's brilliant". And there's nothing I can do about. So... rant over, I'm off to redesign the 'Frankie Says Relax' tee. No one's done that yet, have they?

Hanging around in toilets, littering, general misdemeanors

It's fine if we can't put beer mats at the bar, we get that and ok, maybe you can't be bothered to do anything on a Sunday. But anyways... We're spending the summer sticking it to the man. Sure it's in a pretty minor way, but damn it, we're showing them who's boss. Or at least who's got a load of flyers and posters and blue tack.

In My Short Sleeve

Hey, we're on a blog! We've got a blog and we're on another one what someone else wrote. That's right damn it. One of our previous subjects of a "hey-we're-a-big-fan-no-you-don't-have-to-ah-go-on-then-you-can-write-about-us-too" blog, inmyshortsleeve.com has done a right lovely write up of us.

It says here, that In My Short Sleeve is a site dedicated to the world of the beloved t-shirt. And they'd be right.

Read all about it....................... here.

Come On Football! (part 2)

There's been something of an influx of pretty decent football shirts over the last few weeks, can't think why... They're all in a fairly similar vain, but to be honest there's nothing better than big black and white prints on a white tee. Especially if it eradicates some of the meat-headed football nonsense over the next couple of weeks. Here's some of our favourites...

Some nice lion stuff going on here. Not exactly unobvious (is that a proper word?) but pretty smart nonetheless.

Some kind of pill with footballs in. Not sure why really but it's a better look than an England shirt covered in kebab and blood and sick.

Gazza! 1990! Crying like a baby. Classic image, although it does make this tee look like a vest.

A bit (well, a lot) like the first one, but just less lion-ey. I've often dreamt of having Geoff Hurst's hand on my shoulder, clutching that trophy. Or is it Bobby Moore? Or the other one...?

And finally... something shit. Can these t-shirts all piss off please? Apart from the Ferris Bueller one, that's genius.

We're On A Podcast

If you're as cool as us, you'll have been listening to the Collings and Herrin podcast for ages now. So we sent them a couple of tees to sponsor the podcast with and obviously they were super excited about this. They were going to wear them in the podcast photo but Andrew forgot his and Richard's was a bit tight (another is winging it's way to him as I type). So they better wear them for the next one.
Have a listen here, but do be aware that I get called a very rude name...

Awesome People

Here's a little Summerjunk thumbs up to the people in the blogging community that we love.

Our favourite blog that we're reading every day at the moment is In My Short Sleeve. It's written by a delightful lady called Kim who manages to find really awesome designs from all over the place and says things like "Highlight for me is clearly the tank-tops. They’re super fresh." which is brilliant.

Hide Your Arms have an amazing selection of tees from around the web. They also have some pretty cool advertising space at the top. They have this other awesome thing called t-shirtblo.gs where you can vote for your favourite tee blogs. We've not been anywhere near the top though. Or the bottom actually...

I Am The Trend have a really detailed site that talks about everything from music to art to clothing and everything else your indie heart could desire. They have some stuff about the new Mumford & Sons range of tees, and we can't wait to get to see them when we're at Summer Sundae.

Come On Football!

This hasn't really got anything to do with football, we're just dead excited about the World Cup tonight.

We've done some right good updating of the website over the last few days. We've managed to get a countdown timer and everything. So to celebrate we are offering our newest design - 'wearejunk' - at a discounted price while the clock is ticking (we might just reset the clock once it's run out, but is it worth the risk?).

And... there's still a few days left to enter our competition and win your very own ltd edition 'unity' tee. Just answer a preposterous question then sit back and wait.

Oh yeah, do you like us? You know, 'like' like? Because if you do then you should like us on facebook too. It's probably the first place that you'll hear about all new designs, competitions, what new trousers we've bought ourselves, that kind of thing. Unless of course you check the website daily for some reason. Oh yeah, follow us on twitter too while you're at it.

Anything else? Well yes. Listen to 'Mars' by Fake Blood. It's incredible.
