We’ve seen shirts that fake preppy and business apparel, but these handcuff shirts fake a badass situation, for lack of better words.
The T-shirts are part of an ad campaign for radio station, Kiss FM and were created by LongPlay 360 in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
It’s a great promotional shirt. Many guy…
“Dr. LaPierre’s group [at McMaster University in Hamilton’s department of engineering] used a focus ion beam microscope (FIB) to shoot a beam of gallium ions at the surface of a human hair, carving atoms off the of the surface of the hair to etch these McMaster University logos.”

These images of Gmail-branded soap have been circulating around over the past couple of months and eventually ended up on a Wired blog along with many others. They have been dismissed as either a clever Photoshop job or an art project. Instead, the soap apparently was an actual campaign done to promote Gmail’s spam filtering might to Russian students. The connection is the Russian wordplay on the soundalike slang for email and soap. The copy on package reads: “Gmail: the cleanest soap.” There’s an entire YouTube channel full of Russian CGM on the subject. There’s an official statement from Google’s Russian PR people on Sostav.ru.
You’ve seen this recent Russian TV spot for Gmail, of course.

What an environmental concept! Why waste resources, use machines, pay salaries, pollute the environment and spend tax money to trim the lawns of the city’s parks when you can bring sheep to “trim” them for free? The sheep will be having a nice free meal as well.
