I commend you for your entrepreneurial spirit, sir and I will perhaps purchase the shirt, both because I enjoy a good "t-shirt" and because I have such a fondness for metafilter and this is a good a way as any to support it, as I sneaked in before it cost money to join and my religion forbids the use or purchase of sockpuppets.
I would like to point out, however -and I say this only because I care- in that photo of you on the front page, wearing your t-shirt, it looks for all the world as if you are looking down with a strong dose of pride and a hint of coquettishness, sweetly amused that you are wearing your lovely new t-shirt and NOTHING ELSE AT ALL. So I say, sir, please, sir, where are your pants? Are funds that low? I will express you some pants if you need them. There is no need to go about your business bottomless.*
*That is you matt, is it not? If not, if I am mistaken, please be aware that your model seems to have no covering on his lower limbs, that's a little weird bro. You can wear a t-shirt and pants, surely, even in the communard bohemias of whatever pot grove in Oregon that you live.

I'm curious to see how these sell, actually. Part of me would be shocked if they didn't move and fast, but the other part of me has about 700 CDs still sitting in a friend's basement.
But t-shirts are a lot more approachable of a concept than compilation albums—there's no explanation needed, so that may lower the threshold a lot. And you can't wear a CD around town.

I'll jump on the bandwagon and request some smaller sizing (though don't make them baby-doll shirts. I hate baby-doll shirts!). I wear a women's S/M, so if you could work something out with your printer, that would be fantastic. Also, I'm most frequently on the green, so echoing Mister_A, I'd love to see an AskMefi shirt!

Weird, I get a checkout button just fine in FF 2.0.3 on OS X.

Matt, any chance you're going to do the baseball jerseys ever again?

FF 1.5, Windows XP worked.
(I should buy some for all my MeFi-hating friends, too. Hmmm)

I totally want a [NOT RACIST] t-shirt.
After years of pith and vinegar and wit-, self- and tireless word-whacking, I am so gratified to have finally spawned a Metafilter in-joke. Please join me in celebration by favoriting one of jonson's posts or comments!
And I got to like the point of hovering my mouse pointer over the 'PAY' button, but I've gotten so weird over the years about spending money on things I want but don't really need that I couldn't bring myself to click. Same thing with the comp CD, cortex, for which I apologize. I have become a bit of a freak, that way.

All the people crying for girl shirts are GIRLS, silly.
You say that like they are mutually exclusive.

Any word on when these shirts will be shipping, by the way?

I ordered something else from the swapmeat list a couple weeks ago and it showed up in 2 days, so I suspect orders will go out promptly.

I would like to buy some steak.
I did not see any meat at all on that site.
I'm using Safari, if that helps.

The MeFi tees started shipping today. Watch the Swap Meat for more cool stuff. Today, the mighty "Bacon Scarf" was posted and Monday will be of interest to Kubrick geeks.

I'll do my own XXXL today. Fat people need cool clothes too.

Just got mine in the mail today. Shitty webcam photo
It's obviously hard to tell with that picture, but the shirt's color actually matches the site pretty well. I'm impressed!

One has made it all the way down here to New Zealand. (The blue of the shirt is fairly close to the blue of the page, in my case.)

Well, I had to get one. My wife will probably roll her eyes at me, but I'm a sucker for shirts proclaiming my tendency to spend too much time on the internets.

PS: those of you not seeing the checkout buttons, turn off Adblock if it's installed. Worked for me. And the shirt is... teal? It sure isn't MeFi blue, at any rate.
