I was at Kohl's the other night and a Star Wars shirt caught my eye and when I read it I was actually surprised by what it said for Han Solo:
Any further discussion of eating cute furry animals is best carried on in off topic. It has no place here.
Where were you in '77?

Moving on, I think I found the design inspiration for the senate chamber.
Huh, I've seen a few concerts there and not noticed the similarity before.
VIZ TOP TIPS! - PARENTS. Impress your children by showing them a floppy disk and telling them it’s a 3D model of a save icon.
My local neighborhood put out a FaceBook invite for a movie night next week, announcing it as "the original Star Wars." When I inquired about whether the original version of one of the Special Editions would be played, I was answered with "Original," with a smiley emoticon.
Inferring based on the perceived enthusiasm, I'd say it will be legitimate. No idea whether it will be film-based, or Harmy's Despecialized Edition, or what. Given the very small scale of the event, probably the latter. Either way, it ought to be great fun and a rare chance to see it in a public manner.
I know I’ve made some very poor decisions recently.

I want one! :)

I believe they are selling for $12.99 each or 2 (any graphic shirts) for $20. Great deal.
Ackbar's is missing the word "say."

And R2 is missing the prefatory article, "Chirp!"
Aside from that, the fact that the first two make no grammatical sense sort of deflates the running gag. Whoever ordered the portraits failed to Establish the Rule before Breaking the Rule for Comedic Effect, making the whole thing too confusing.

I agree.
You guys are overthinking a humble joke t-shirt that expresses support for the OOT.
And I'm pretty sure that's one of the ways they conveyed Artoo's sounds in the old Marvel comic.

Bum rides mean something else in other places :-D

So is Chewie
The quotation marks are typos. Ahhrghugh means "rip an arm out of a socket" in Old English.

Mistakes, yes. Typos, no. Just another instance of the systemic sloppiness that hangs all over that shirt design like the BO of the shirt's obese wearer most certainly does after it gets tossed into the hamper to await mom's laundry day.
The intent was clearly that "Hrryauhg" or whatever was a Wookiee-language substitute for an English-language predicate that would grammatically parallel the rest of the captions. Much like the Bee-yoop for R2. But note the embarrassing inconsistency between the un-quoted R2 phrase and the quotation-mark-marred Chewie phrase.
Just an absolute mess is this shirt, really.
Not sure if serious.
Yes and no.
Depends on whether you consider Truth expressed in jest "serious."
Way to go and stereotype Star Wars fans. :/

Maybe he's projecting. ;-P

Heaven forbid! That was a dig at Kohl's shoppers!
So you're calling Crampedmisfit a fat loser?
Call me vain or easily disappointed, but I guess I'm a little sad that my Michael Jackson joke didn't have folks rolling in the aisles :(
;)
MJ jokes can't work without cheap shots taken at his nose or sexuality. Sorry, but them's the breaks.
Just a fun fact: I didn't buy this shirt! hahaha
Not my style really.
To think I gave you a shout out on the OT.com twitter. ;)
