Geek Chic or just Geek?

It's a phone's logo, why would you wear that? To show people you use one?...so? To show people you support Google phones?...why? :)

Why would people wear a shirt with a man on a horse playing polo?
Why would women have a handbag with a "G" on it, when one without it would cost hundreds less?

WHY WHY WHY

You show your support for a particular brand you feel a connection with, or says something about you.

Everyone saying Geek, I say I like the OP's shirts a lot as it appeal to my sense of humour.

There is a significant difference between a built up fashion brand and a logo for phone software.

I don't think anybody is question if people like the t-shirt, I like the t-shirt and I would wear it, but the fact remains that it is NOT chic.

Because people are suckered into advertising someone else's products for them.

Gucci should pay women to advertise their handbags.

People get insulted over interweb stuff :eek:

To be fair I had an older account on here, but I forgot my login details, so I created a new one.
 
you know the person wearing this ts is 5 ft tall (slightly overwieght )has thick rimmed glasses and hasnt been near a women for at least his life :D

t shirt isnt stylish or even worthy of putting in a class of geek lol
 
I have a load of WP7 and older windows mobile stuff.

It rarely gets worn other than at training or washing the car, or other "don't really care what I look like" situations.

The exception to that is a very warm and posh windows mobile scarf I got last year, but then, I am not really known for caring about fashion. :p

Could you not have requested a new password or asked for some help using the "contact us" link on the login page?

"If you have forgotten your password, please use the Forums contact form, or email an admin direct, the addresses for which are in the FAQ."

Duplicate accounts are frowned on here :)
 
It's geeky but who cares?

I once got a T-Shirt from Google with the Google logo on the front and "Good things come in small packages" on the back.

I gave it the wife because she is small!. She (and she isn't a geek) thought it was cool.


EDIT: The one problem with an Android t-Shirt is the anti-Apple fanboi associates. Android users can be as bad as the Apple ones...

This. Logos don't make you cool. Style does.

So then it doesn't matter what logos you wear as long as you wear them with style!


Tell it to the chavs who wear Adidas tracksuit bottoms (and occasionally stuff their hands in them) and the neds who wear fake Burberry because it makes them cool :p
