ironical (Submission, Verdict: 0, MY EYES!)
Few submissions warrant me changing my normal title convention: Sub name, (Submission, Verdict: X).
This design actually made me scream “MY EYES” just as I was writing the title. It was something of an aftershock.
Dear artist: Please to learn about the definition of “irony.” For instance, irony is attempting to be ironic by creating a shirt focused around irony and failing miserably because you only succeeded in conveying your lack of understanding at what’s really a simple, eighth grade english concept.
No no, I get it. It’s ironic that shirts are usually (most times) decent drawings with some modicum of time and effort put into their design and creation. What would really be ironic is if Threadless printed this shirt and charged $100 for it.
Irony or not, it’s ugly and there are so many better ways to pull off “minimalistic-half-assed-irony-get-
what-I’m-going-for-hah-
I-crack-myself-up” than this.
Just sayin’.

i don’t think he’s serious.
as far as i can tell, he’s making fun of people who pass of ugly/bad designs as “ironic”
he himself isn’t being ironic, he’s just poking fun at the people who try to wear irony as a clothing style.
