This seems to have ground to a halt. In my opinion most suggestions so far are a bit naff or too subjective. Yet the forum has given rise to a wealth of T-shirt-worthy material.
Proposal:
I think that the best idea for a series of LFGSS T-shirts is typograhy-based phrases or slogans with a small LFGSS logo being the common denominator. White lettering on black cotton is the obvious choice.
Lots of people in this thread have already put forward this idea in various forms already and the phrases have a meaning, humour, boldness and relevance beyond some wanky graphic. Besides, the way we communicate on here is by words.
I can think of dozens off the top of my head, a mixture of dodgy acronyms, ridiculous thread titles, puns, oft-repeated comebacks, expletives etc etc etc:
"WAC"
"WAFC"
"[Obligatory slack chain comment]"
"Post your Pets"
"Bike Porn"
"Who makes those wheels?"
"Publically Inaccessible Rant" (including the typo)
"Proper Leather Shoes" ;-)
"Epic WTF"
"Pukes on cock"
"Pea roast"
"WANK"
CoppiThat Says... £1"
...and countless others, probably.
These are fun and highlight the forum's sometimes only very tenuous association with bikes and cycling.
