I am the guy in the picture. How do you guys have enough time to comment on this strange relic from my childhood? OK, i’m a nerd, but what does that make the people who feel compelled to comment?

I am the boy in this picture….You don’t know this, but I totally had to fake my smile…I was sooo mad at my sister. She went in my closet and took my favorite shirt with the 2 cute kittens on the front, and I had to wear her stupid…black holes are out of sight shirt
Ah! those shirts! where do you get those shirts! the black holes shirt kicks ass, but the kitten one is so bizarre I wouldn’t mind wearing that either.
I can almost hear the argument about what to watch on TV:
“Hey nerd, I wanna watch “Donny & Marie!!””
‘You’re an idiot. I’m watching “Cosmos” with Carl Sagan.”
In unison, “MAAAAA!”

P.s. Black hole shirt hitting e-bay next week.
I’m totally getting a Napoleon Dynamite-ish vibe from this one.
See that guy on the right? the geeky one with the T-shirt?
Yeah, that’s your boss’s boss’s boss.
lol this is cute
cool
Kudos to the AFP caption writer…that was the original comment about the theory after all.
What? Me worry?
He’s now stalking a playground near you
The image on her T-shirt was actually the cover for the Japanese edition of “Dark Side of the Moon”, by Pink Flower – er, Floyd.
Sorry, I thought it was the promo shot for the latest Michael Cera movie
See, these are people who know how to wear t-shirts that MEAN something.

The brother grew up and became the inventor of the “StarCraft” games.
The sister dies of a “Hello Kitty” overdose.
There’s nothing wrong with this photo, but we’re going into our fourth day on this one. Isn’t it time for a new one?
Cute kids!
neerrrrrrrdd!!!
100 %. No doubt

It’s Bill and Melinda Gates!!!!
Yikes…we sure wore our pants up under our armpits back then!! Love the shirts! Makes me want to sing Mr. Roboto and eat Pop Rocks!
Domo Arigato!

Sooo cute!
a rare moment when Dexter and Didi actually got along.
Nice danny, you stole mine! Wheres Mandark?
This feels very 1980 to me! I’ll bet when he wore that shirt to school,the other kids made fun of him,and called him a nerd! GREAT!
Now the other kids are selling used cars while he’s a VP at Apple!
The nerds always win.
It’s actually a movie poster for a sequel: Scott Pilgrim Vs. the Kitties.
I so remember those iron-on decal shirts, we all HAD TO have them
I STILL have them!
Except the iron on decal shirts were coolest if pressed onto a 3/4 inch sleeve baseball shirt!
It’s Bill from Freaks and Geeks!
I thought the same thing as soon as I saw him!
That’s exactly right. Here, Bill appears psyched because he’s about to find out who shot J.R.
Totally! I actually only looked at the comments to see if anyone else thought that too.
Me, too!
I thought it was Bill Gates.
Not awkward, but definitely a little weird.

Dear Cecil:
Cecil, you’re my final hope
Of finding out the true Straight Dope
For I have been reading of Schroedinger’s cat
But none of my cats are at all like that.
This unusual animal (so it is said)
Is simultaneously live and dead!
What I don’t understand is just why he
Can’t be one or other, unquestionably.
My future now hangs in between eigenstates.
In one I’m enlightened, the other I ain’t.
If you understand, Cecil, then show me the way
And rescue my psyche from quantum decay.
But if this queer thing has perplexed even you,
Then I will and won’t see you in Schroedinger’s zoo.

A rare photo of Heinz Doofenshmirtz as a young man.
HA! Love it!
Hey! Where’s Perry?
I’ll bet he has quite a backstory.
WIN!
Aw, I think they’re adorable.
Hahaha, Steven Hawking and Lisa Randall. NICE!
this is too adorable. i’ll bet they’re both geniuses.
He’s got future evil genius written all over him (except for his t-shirt)
this is what this site is all about! i LOVE it!
Brother looks like he grew up and now plays on “Big Bang Theory.”
spot on !!!! Shelldon !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well.. at least theyre wearing pants..unlike the last post >.<
Whew. That is a relief.
Love the early adoption of the mom-jeans!
and the Toni Tennille hairdo
A Toni Tennile hairdo
is a Dorothy Hamill hairdo
that hasn’t been cut in a month or two.
it’s almost a beautiful haiku!
I don’t think this is really awkward…it’s just the way it was. Aaahhh! remember the smell of the iron on decal.
LOL I forgot about that smell completely until I read that! Then it was like I could actually smell it. Man, the things your brain stores.
Future Crazy Cat Lady + Future Stephen Hawkings = Awesome
would that be Schrodinger’s kitty?
HAH!! That may be the best comment on here ever – well done!
Don’t open the box!
I had to google that…. you win!
Aw Man! You beat me to it! You win, early bird!
I also had to google that…WTH? That is the craziest thing…I think I need coffee before I even begin to understand it.
However, you, tasty have just given the best comment ever.
High-brow humor! I love it! Fair play to you!
I don’t know a friggin thing about physics, but I googled and loved.
Fantastic! Kitty??
Thank you, Dr. Cooper.

Excellent!
