It's been 20+ years but I loved this shirt for it's SQL agnostic-ity:

(This shows the shirt you could buy once-upon-a-time from thinkgeek, which appears to be no more...)

I believe they used beefy-t brand shirts, which was like the nicest thing you could get for t-shirts at the time. (Personal opinion, don't @ me.)

I think my wife finally tossed all my old thinkgeek shirts. I had a huge collection from my college years including "There are only 10 types of people in this world...", "man love" and "there's not place like 127.0.0.1".

Who has filled this void? I know xkcd had/has some geeky shirts and they shut down too.

Hmm, I too miss the good ol' days, though I have more old tattered Threadless shirts than ThinkGeek. I suppose something like shirt.woot.com might be where the (nerdy) kids today look?

Cotton Bureau has some, although they are kind of pricy.
