A shirt with a 48k ZX Spectrum on it! And another with the DeLorean!

Have you stuck needles into my brain to view my dreams, or was a long communal meditation session required in the office to find the very core of nerdism?

I have never, ever bought 'merchandise', on principal.

The tinfoil hats obligatory and black helicopter designs are bending my will however....

where's the BOFH coffee cups?

I NEED a BOFH coffee cup - until I've had my first pot or 2 I'm at my most diabolical.

You've only got boy-shaped t-shirts? Oh.

Err...

"I have never, ever bought 'merchandise', on principal."

You mean principle.

And ninethly, why have you contracted a non - British firm?

I am a sucker for mugs.

Could I have a black helicopter mug please?

American Dollars?

Are those little dollar signs an indication that your site is *gasp* region specific based on IP perhaps? Will it really only cost me $20 for a T-Shirt plus shipping? Or is it still the trusty british pound and actually going to cost me $30 USD plus shipping for a T?

You are correct, and I stand corrected.

Me two. Until I've had a few brews I'm Satan incarnate. Then I turn nasty.

Where is "I do my sudoku in hex"?

Coat

Once upon a time you had a number of great shirts like the one above.

Can we have these again?

I want that one and a couple more from your current stock, they will be worn with pride; along with my Ipood shirtfrom Bangkok!

Hat, coat, going to the post office now; via the pub.

Mine says 20 Euros...

Oh well, with the current exchange rate to ZAR, it doesn't really matter if it's dollars, pounds or euros - too expensive either way :(

An actual sensible comment? *gasp*

Anyway, poking around a little, as solicited, I noticed that if you click 'show all' to show everything then not everything is shown. I will admit the only thing I noticed not being shown was the 'WTF?' T-shirt, primarily because I want one of those, but there may or may not be others (imho, ymmv etc)

Otherwise great. Who knows, I may even buy something.

Where oh where are the O'Really Shirts? I was going to invest in "Distributing Clue to Users" and then you closed the old store. And it's not in the new one.

And we need our BOFH mugs!

Has promise

I agree with sarah....no lady shaped tshirts. I personally want the tinfoil hat one.

Will there be travel mugs, with tops and such? We cant have regular mugs around the office for safety reasons.

Global shipping please

Gutted can't ship to Thailand either and I need to replace my old Hacker polo shirt.....getting a bit worn now after 6 years wear.......

BOFH mugs 

Posted Friday 1st August 2008 16:10 GMT

Stop

Can't agree more, we need the BOFH mugs back as well.

More stuff please

Like mugs and pens and mugs and post-its and mugs and mice-mats. But mostly mugs.

And the T-shirts... well hardly geeky, are they. Now a polyester button-down collar, short sleeve shirt with breast pocket AND pocket protector with BOFH logon on the other side. Well, then you'd be talking.

*null value*

Ditto on the BOFH MUG!!!! That will go over better than the Dunder-Mifflin Employee of the Year mug!!

BOFH mug is missing. You do know the PFY will have your job (life/sanity/bladder control) for this. You cant go around messing with mainstays like that.

I need a new one some jackass broke the handle off the old one.

... why have you contracted a non - British firm? (German!)... because Mr Armani and TopShop had already bought everything in China ... and the London Cotton fields are now run by Lidl!

Coat

I believe the joke was supposed to be gets coat, opens door, closes door. But you've killed it with your syntactic analysis. And <coat/> <door/> would've sufficed, if we're being picky! Ruined I tellsya!

And it's not HTML, if we're being anally retentive.

Open coat, close coat has a whole different meaning...

True enough, there is no DOCTYPE telling me anything. Get the W3C to approve a ERML (El Reg Markup Language, of course) type and we can call it quits.

If they wanted to be rude they could have just omitted the </door>. *Sigh* Manners/markup jokes.. what have I become?

Nice designs, shame about the price

£7.50 tops

Yeah, more stuff 

Posted Tuesday 5th August 2008 08:08 GMT

Yeah, seriously. I bought some humorous t-shirts once. Never wore any though because I'd feel like a complete nonce. Bring on the coffee cups!

I wonder how Sarah feels to be immortalised forever in her own range of t-shirts. I think she'd want to be on a coffee cup too.

What?

Hmm,

Will the Reg be doing a suitable 'bag'O'Patches', not only to make quick eye patchs should you lose one in a fight with your vendors but also so you can stick 'em onto clothing that El'reg does not do.

You know the old stype patches, like 'Iorn Maden' & 'Metalica'.... and the plethra of death metal bands.

I quite fancy a selection of Reg logo patches in your main colours, in a few diffrent sizes.

NB: Quite like the new look, same the gadgets seem to of gone, I alwas fancyed that keyring that glows for 10 years.
