I Cry Because Others Are Stupid T-Shirt
This black Big Bang Theory t-shirt features Sheldon's quote “I cry because others are stupid and it makes me sad”. The quote is rendered in a yellow, bitmap font with a large Sad Face emoticon, giving the t-shirt a geeky look reminiscent of a computer terminal. As you would expect from an officially licensed product, the t-shirt is faultless. The material is fairly soft and the artwork is well printed.
Sheldon said this classic line in the third season episode “The Gorilla Experiment”, in which he tried to teach Penny “a little physics”. When Penny gets lost and begins to cry, Sheldon asks her why she is crying. Penny tells Sheldon she's crying because she's stupid, to which Sheldon responds that he cries because other people are stupid and that makes him sad.
This black Big Bang Theory t-shirt features the entire gang in cartoon form, dressed up as a gang of superheroes. The t-shirt has a shield design and Sheldon's catchphrase, “Bazinga!”, printed above in comic lettering. Again, the t-shirt itself is great quality with the image well printed and the material fairly soft.
The characters' costumes include some great little details. Howard is wearing his customary Alien belt buckle. Leonard, who is holding a weapon, has the laser symbol as his icon, along with an “L” belt buckle. Sheldon's superhero logo features a representation of the Doppler Effect from his Halloween costume. Naturally, Amy's superhero symbol, as neuroscientist, is a brain and honoring his Indian heritage, Raj's icon is a Sanskrit symbol.
Enter the contest now for your chance to win one of these official The Big Bang Theory T-Shirts [Open Worldwide].
