Fact: Our Customers Say The Darndest Things
We not only want to share their cunning wit and “humorousity” with the world, but we also want to reward them for being awesome. So here’s the deal, all you have to do is express your opinion/love/hate/deepest, darkest secrets/novel/masterpiece/Haiku/creative genius/you name it in the comments on this blog.
You can comment on the post of your choice, or every post if you’d like. It doesn’t matter, we want to read them all – the juicier the better.
On Friday the 6dollarshirts staff will review all the comments on the blog from this week and choose the Darndest one. The winner will receive a $25 gift certificate to 6dollarshirts.com (and perhaps some Jell-O pudding pops).
In the mean time, here are some of the darndest things our customers have said in the past:
- “… and then realised I couldn’t afford it because I’ve spent all my money on less important things, like food and rent etc. So instead I placed a smaller order, though it was hard trying to decide which ones NOT to buy. Even I, as a godless limey atheist, know that a t-shirt featuring JC on a dinosaur transcends all other priorities.’
-Mark in Sheffield, Great Britian
- “I will never forget the time I intentionally overdrafted my bank account to buy 30 of your shirts. I’m back for about 10 more now.I love you guys.” -Rob in Quebec, Canada
- “While my mom prays to her Jesus Christ God dudes I pray that 6dollarshirts.com never ceases to exist. She’s such an idiot!” -Jaime in Tampa, FL
- “I bought one of your shirts and now my dog and cat won’t stop humping my legs. Do you guys sell pants too? All of mine have been ruined.” -Mark in Pasadena, California
- “It’s a pleasure to do business with a company that takes it’s humor seriously and takes its seriousness humorousitly. ly.” -Michael in Cambridge, MA
- “Of all the vices to blow my kids child support money on, your T-shirts are by far my favorite. Well except for maybe huffing model airplane fuel. Thanks for the laughs.” -Carl in Truth or Consequences, NM
Good luck!
Ode to Juggy
A little Juggy Montage just in time for the Fourth of July:
Rescue Bird Society
Yesterday, while the 6dollarshirts staff was hard at work creating super-awesome t-shirts, a little baby bird was in grave danger.
This little guy was found right outside the office on the ground, so after throwing on some fabulous pink gloves, Mission: Rescue Bird was commenced.
The nest was located in a nearby tree, where the little tyke was returned to its home.
The rescue team even watched as the Mama Bird reunited with her little one. Yay for happy endings!
Monday Playlist
If it were still cool to make a mixtape, the folks at 6dollarshirts totally would. We’d even decorate the little stick-on label for you, but as it is I guess we’ll settle for a playlist instead.

Threadpit Flashback
For those of you who haven’t been with us for all that long, you may be a bit confused. Sometimes we talk about Threadpit and sometimes we talk about 6dollarshirts, which one is it?!
Threadpit is our parent company. The building you see with lots of shirtless men gallivanting around, drawing on walls and breaking through doors is where the old T-shirt company was located. We have since moved to the new Head Quarters of 6dollarshirts, and Threadpit is no more.
However, since most of the staff has been the same from the beginning to now, we sometimes slip up and call it all “Threadpit,” hence the confusion. We still carry some of the same t-shirts, but overall 6dollarshirts is the new, cheaper and improved version of the old Threadpit website, which is no longer running.
Curious as to how it all got started? Here’s a little photo flashback, including some of the shirts that were sold back in the day.
Juggie Plays Dress Up
Not sure what’s more troubling, the Hannah Montana pajamas or the lipstick all over his face. Maybe he’s Miley’s long lost twin sister, Juggie Cyrus. Either way, it’s beautiful awesomeness.
Meet McGarnicle
This caped figure made an appearance today. We know a couple things about him: he wears pink gloves, he carries a staff, and he likes Frisbee, falafel and Fridays.
Juggie & A Wall
And Juggie’s back to take down a wall this time. Enjoy.
Customer of the Month
On this Fabulous Friday, we have a special announcement to make. One of our customers, Dakota Roberts, officially has the biggest cojones we have ever had the pleasure of knowing about. She has placed an order for 100, yes, you heard right 100, random mystery shirts. That means shirts from movies, shirts from internet memes and shirts from the dirtiest minds around. Her only request? To not receive two of the exact same shirt. Request granted. Thank you Dakota for being so entirely awesome. We hope to hear all about your massive order as soon as it arrives.
