Yeah right. $99 is way to expensive for a t-shirt, especially one that has a weird bulky chest that looks like you’re trying to smuggle porno mags from a convenience store. Kinda’ cool that you can hook up a gaming system and let people play stuff on your shirt, though.

So I finally got around to picking up The Orange Box and I played through Portal for the first time ever  yesterday. It was pretty awesome and I could almost punch myself nuts for depriving myself for so long. I say “almost” because 1.) I happen to like my nuts very much (even though my girlfriend says they’re a bit large) and 2.) who punches themselves in the nuts? Seriously?

Enjoy this awesome cover of one of the best songs ever composed and preformed by a robot with murderous intent.
