CAN SOMEONE MAKE TEES OUT OF MY SLOGANS?

G'day.

I'm a writer based in South Africa. I have many interests, one of them being designing funky tees. I'm looking for a designer in the States, who might work with me on saleable tees with slogans on them- quirky off the wall stuff,
not just I LOVE NY type things. Below is a list of potential slogans. If this is your vibe, let's talk...

MISCELLANEOUS

This person is
a) desperate
b) somebody famous
c) just a hanger for the shirt
d) a circus freak
e) a Whitney Houston fan


America’s caught between Iraq and a hard case.
Prove it.
The Didn’t Like Finding Nemo club.
Sarah Chalke is hot.
Where is Utah?
I don’t love Courtney.
Let’s invade England.
Hunter S. Thompson for president.
Michael Moore for president.
Jennifer Anniston for president.
My other body is Willem Dafoe.
Sorry, was that your ego I stepped on?
Sport is stupid.
I can read breasts.
I’m better than you are.

Your best friend is an ant.
Eat some stones.
Lava is good for you.
Keep away from children.
Describe yourself in ten words. Actually, forget it.
No eye contact.
Not a Michael Jackson fan.
Don’t read this, it’s stupid.
I hate jokes, don’t tell me any.
Get away. Actually, come here. No, get away. Go away.


FANTASY

Elf shagger
What is a unicorn’s horn for, anyway?
I can do magic. Disappear.
You’re not real.
I come from a distant dimension where I am named Eater of Worlds.
Are Hobbits gay?

GOD AND RELIGION...maybe best left alone...

Jesus was a hippie.
God forgive born-again Christians, for they know not what they do.
Eve was hot.
If good girls go to Heaven, I want to go to Hell.
On Judgment Day, Bette Midler will be first in line.
Holy cow. Saw one in India.
Animals go to Heaven. Racists don’t.
What if God was a midget on a bus and you made fun of him?

LOVE AND SEX

I masturbate.



ANIMALS

Wasp hater
Children suck. When I was seven I blew up a frog with firecrackers. It took ages to croak.
Horses suck.
Some dolphins try to rape bathers.
Moths are stupid.
Why do wild animals hate German tourists?
Fish are better than birds.
Who would win, out of an electric eel and a cougar?
Dodos were rubbish, anyway.
I’m glad dinosaurs are extinct.

    Hey! I think your ideas are very, very cool indeed...I particularily and personally love "no eye contact" and "What if god was a midget on a bus and you made fun of him?".Brilliant. I have no connections at the moment and am an aspiring designer myself, but I will let you know if I find out anything worth passing on to you in the way of information, ok???

    good luck.

      hats off you are actively thinking about this and putting out some originality out there. I especially like "elf shagger" advice tho: don't be surprised if your slogans end up on shirts without acknowledgment or recompensation. I had to learn that the hard way. turn around and your cool ideas will be selling at fucking Urban Outfitters for $24 and you get nothing. Unfortunately, its wise to share with only a trusted few for opinions. sad, but true. Maybe its not an issue for you. I applaud your slogans, tho some are really clever!
