Cyanista, you should offer those guys to model for the shirt - see if you can make some extra dough.

My chest is too big for tshirt modeling.  The bottom half of whatever is printed on them tends to be unreadable.  :-\

I do not think nerds will care.  Use your natural talents to make some money off of lonely nerds, girl!

You're obviously not thinking like a nerd who doesn't get to touch womens, this will just sell more.

You must have missed the 'Snog Tees Girl' threads at OA.  Her chest looked great for tshirt modeling :drool

What is this nonsense about chests being too big?

I'm thinking The Bore should create t-shirts and cut Cyanista percentage-based deal to model them.

One of my favorite GAF era photoshops was a faux-GI Joe info card for Wallguy.  I think I have it saved it on my old pc.

The blue prints were badass. I used to hang those on my wall. I wonder what happened to all that crap.

The real question is how many of you gents sent in your flag points from the backs of the G.I. Joe cards and got the wind-surfer?

Heh I did.  That wind-surfer was kind of a POS though.  The hangglider was the much more functional Joe toy!

Anyone remember the cool contests they used to have with the buried treasure etc?  I remember one that had a huge intricate map and all these clues on how to finish it.  I came up with the scheme to send in 100 different configurations, knowing that one would surely be correct.  Of course my mom asked how I would mail all these things.  Needless to say I was a little shocked at the cost of 100+ stamps.

That wind surfer looks cool. It looks like it is nearly functional, if it could float

Looks can be deceiving.  If I remember correctly it all broke down into a backpack type apparatus and as such wasn't nearly as stable as it looks in that pic.  Still, it's hard to argue with a 'free' toy like that.  The sail was surprisingly resilient though, if it had been made today it probably wouldn't be much stronger than cellophane.

I doubt it.  Those Busted Tees or whatever those shitty name t-shirt brands are called have a lot of T-Shirt models that are pretty well endowed up top.  In fact, that might be the only reason why people ever buy those shirts.

Yes, Cyanista should model t-shirts.

And T-Exp is likely right about the busted-tees.
