Tell us you favorite slogan

Yesterday I talked to some friends about our all-time favorite (T-shirt) slogans. We had a good laugh, so I thought it might be funny to share some here.

My favorites (some are translated from German into English)

"The guy who said that nothing was impossible never tried slamming a revolving door"

"I hate it when my inner voices argue with my imaginary friends"

"Never got to bed angry. Stay awake and plot your revenge"

"I´m not random, you just can´t think as fast as me"

"if a man speaks in the middle of a forrest, and there is no woman around to hear him: Is he still wrong?"

"somtimes I pretend to be normal. But it gets boring so, I go back to being me"

I love this one!!! I need that T-shirt!
Hm, does it have to be a T-shirt slogan? Or just any slogan like a bumper sticker? Or regular sticker?
I'm going to have to think about this.
Great idea for a post!

Every slogan is fine!

@AHB: Thank you. I did some summaries in English a while, but it seemed that 99% of my readers are German speaking. I will add some English summaries again if some of you guys want to follow my blog.

Mine is easy "I'd rather be fishing!". My cousin always tries to use "That's what she said." in conversations. Always in the most inappropriate ways.

My friend had a T with "NATIONAL PORNOGRAPHIC" written on it:D

My personal favourite slogan is, "Don't straddle what you can't ride"

Hola cliosguy,

As a fellow bi-lingual speaker, that translation was pretty good though I am not sure of the tense. I may have said "We are not born with fear" or "We are born fearless" as opposed as in the past tense.

As a software engineer, I usually associate 127.0.0.1 with localhost but I think you were trying to say "There's no place like /home" assuming you are familiar with Unix/Linux.

cliosguy · **Reply #14 on:** December 06, 2009, 10:46:25 PM

thanks, the idea is that as babies we have no fear, we may have a basic self-preservation instinct but not fear, that is learned from people around us and experience

i do associate 127.0.0.1 to localhost, my pc, "my home" but i didnt came up with it i just saw it in a shirt and liked it

truer words were never spooken

I like "As a matter of fact I am a rocket scientist"

That's cool. I am sure you can find a t-shirt with that at ThinkGeek.com (see http://www.thinkgeek.com/tshirts-apparel/ ). I don't wear t-shirts but if I did, I would totally get the geek slogan ones from there.

I forgot to mention it Dave but they have a "Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition" shirt. God Bless the Pythons!

I saw this bald guy with a t-shirt a couple of days ago and it said “I’m to sexy for my hair and that’s why it isn’t there”
The bouncer at my bar had a t-shirt and it said on the front “Chuck Norris got my back” and when he turned around there was this giant footprint and a signature of Chuck Norris.
I also like this one “Never assume, you’ll make an ass out of you and me”
And from the brilliant John Carpenter movie They Live “I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass... and I'm all out of bubblegum”

"When you find yourself in a hole, quit digging" I think that's a quote actually, but I made it into a poster for myself when I was younger.
