I Think We Have A Winner
Okay, it's obvious that the most popular t-shirt caption is the one that references porn, so that's what I'm going to go with and I HOPE YOU'RE HAPPY. Actually, I do think it's pretty funny. I've spent years sighing over my referrer logs; how can that many people be transposing the f and the p while they're Googling?
Honestly, the state of education in this country! *tsk*
I'm going to leave the poll open until 5:00 p.m., just because I said (to myself) that I would, but in the meantime, let's all congratulate Badger for being funny and earning herself a free t-shirt! (I'm doing that thing where I go haaaaaa into my cupped hands and it sounds like a distant stadiumful of people cheering the kid who just won high jump. Not even just parents, either, but regular people who don't normally care about track-and-field but who got caught up in how good these kids are, some of them could turn pro, or at least definitely get a scholarship.)
The shirts will look like this.
To pre-order a "Typed It Wrong" high-quality Hanes Beefy Tee Men's short-sleeved t-shirt in navy with baby blue ink, or a women's extra-long torso short-sleeved tee in black with baby blue ink (they don't make the long-torso'd ladies' tees in navy) PRE-ORDERING IS NOW CLOSED.
I need 20 orders minimum to make this work. Once we hit that amount I'll get my t-shirt guy on the stick and we'll be able to pogo. (First-class shipping is included in the price. E-mail me about international orders, fussy {at} fussy {dot} org.)
Thanks to everyone who submitted a caption!

Please don't take this the wrong way, but I would be very pleased if you would talk like this more often in real life:
"Once we hit that amount I'll get my t-shirt guy on the stick and we'll be able to pogo."
(Also, great post, great caption.)
You wanna know something sad? I didn't even GET that one until you spelled.it.out.for me.
Must get out more.

Is it the state of education or the one-handed typists? Does that go without saying? Have I gone too far? I'm totally buying that shirt.

That's one cool tshirt! I'm going to order one right now!
Dammit! I can't get it to just let me buy one! It keeps trying to make me buy a man's and a woman's!!! I'll have to keep trying...
I am so honored, I can't even tell you. Take THAT, everyone who has ever emailed to complain about my guttermind/pottymouth! TAKE. THAT.
You had me at "extra-long torso".
Philip, I don't seem to be one of those people who talks like she thinks, but I'm lucky I can write like it.
Jules, one-handed typing, why did I not think of that? Because I DON'T WANT TO THINK ABOUT THAT. Like Kate.
Swampangel, link fixed.
Badger! Is! The! Winner!
Lori, NO SHIT, the women's shirts are really nice, it's a new brand I'm trying and they're great.
Congradulations Badger - as I said on your site, you're a hell of a competitor.
I, too, applaud the long-torso choice. Could you say how the sizing runs otherwise--is it smallish?
what i love about the actual picture is that the men look "vintage", but whatever it is the man without the hat is holding in his hand, looks like some sort of pda. haha.
Mine's ordered, and I can't wait for that call from my mom asking if I'd had another package delivered to her house. (I live in the ghetto, packages don't last long on the porch around here).
She'll probably be about as horrified as she was by the bunny-humping mugs and the "childless wh0re" shirt. I'm 37. You'd think she'd be used to it by now.
I still can't believe that "check out the blogs on that one!" wasn't even in the running.
I didn't write it, but whoever did, you should know that you're the clear winner in my heart.
I know, that was a good one!
I do not have an actual measurement on the length of the women's shirt, I didn't get to take a sample home -- would it help to know it's a good two inches longer than the last run of "writing well is the best revenge" women's shirt? It's definitely a belly-covering length. My best guess is that an XL = 12/14, L = 10/12, M = 6/8, S = 2/4. If you're a 14 and don't want a fitted tee, though, I'd order a men's.
I'm just stunned that mine came in second! I'm a gonna buy one of these as soon as I can. Thanks, Mrs. Kennedy!
You mean it isn't hussy they're typing???
Um, yeah, really. That's what I was thinking... hussy. ssshhheeeiiittt, Iamsuchadumbass.
47 years old and I thought they meant hussy... Can someone please throw me a rope? I seem to be stuck in some other century.
"I don't seem to be one of those people who talks like she thinks"
You and me both. I'm catatonic in person.
That's not what I hear, sac.
Congrats to the winnning captioneer and all the runners-up.
My life has been a valley of valleys lately ... this contest, humble as it may seem, gave me a flicker of a spark that lit the flint that turned into a possibility of a glimmer of hope. I made a deal with myself: If a caption of mine was chosen, it would be a sign. I would continue on this seemingly pointless journey called "life." None of my captions were selected. I hear you, Universe ... message received.
Oh dear, I was going to comment, but now I feel compelled to counsel Eleanor Rigby. Eleanor, I love your song. A lot.
That's brilliant. And the SAME THING happened to me when I tried to insert PayPal within a post a couple years ago. Nice to see there hasn't been an UPGRADE in two years.
I'd like to know what asshat thinks there is a non profit dedicated to the preservation of the female bits. You know....dot ORG. Sheesh.
