Anniversary T-Shirts!
Posted by admin | Big Mango Bar, Posts | Posted on June 16th, 2009
We are fast approaching the party, more details on that later, but we have some decisions to make first.
The plan is to make a limited edition T-Shirt that will be for sale at the party.
The shirts will be black with white lettering.
The front:
“You are only as good as your last short time.” by Jack Dawson
The back:
Will have this logo -
And the wording:
July 11, 2009
The first anniversary of the 2nd coming

————————-
I will work on a mockup t-shirt as a graphic soon to give you a better idea of the overall look.
What we need to know is who wants one and what size. So if you are interested you have to email us to confirm your order. Tell us how many you want and what size. This way we get a sense of how many to make. Assume the price will be between 200-250baht per shirt. You can reserve a shirt for pickup at another time as well – so if you can’t make it to the party we will hold it for you.
Shipping is possible but we will have to charge you for packaging and shipping.
These will be limited edition and t-shirts orders will be filled based on reservation through emails but the purpose of this is to see how many we should make so if you are interested at all please email.
peace

Bit of advice…. drop the ‘http://’ Unnecessary clutter ??
Or of course you can tell me to eff off and mind my own business – in which case I shall be forced to open a rival bar just a few yards closer to Nana Entertainment Complex and call it the ‘The Big Mungo’ after one of my favourite films, Blazing Saddles.

Is it possible have a front pocket on the shirt?
Is it possible for an order placement to have your first name printed on the pocket, below or above –
I am willing to pay more for these options!
Thanks

So is there a party on the 11th July? Is this another one I will miss?

How long can you reserve one for? Cant see myself back there this year but would love one of the shirts – or postage?

Another unsolicited suggestion:
change the date format to 11 July 2009
or just tell me to fuck off
or both
Another party…. woo hoo! can’t wait. will docbond be there in his star trek shirt again?
can you supply a driver to make sure i make it home from the party this time? or possibly just put a pillow on the stairs….

One more suggestion you probably don’t want:
Run a few shirts without the witty saying on the front and with just the anniversary stuff on the back. There are plenty of times (and places) I’d otherwise wear the shirt that I’d like not to be bothered by people asking what ‘short time’ refers to. You know what I mean….

I’d like to see the reactions of the bargirls to this shirt.

“I’d like to see the reactions of the bargirls to this shirt”
i like ur thinking .
wonder if they can relate to my sentiment…?

ssB: What JDH said…I like that pocket idea.
How about a couple more pockets at the bottom of the shirt too? One on the lower right to hold condoms (to show you’re socially responsible and a great ice breaker for getting to the point with those Unis) and one on the lower left to hold check-bins so’s bar staff can’t pad your bill and you won’t wake up the next morning wondering if you’ve paid. Put’em right below the belt line, so when tucked in it can still be worn at formal affairs like weddings and job interviews.
While you’re at it, make it from eco-friendly materials and add some kinda snappy, PC, eco-friendly message on the shirt sleeve. Something like “Ecologically Friendly – Made of 100% Hemp” or such. Once it’s better days are over you can send it out in a blaze of glory.

@SSB-
A bit of advice for everyone…the shirts are not US/UK size…and XL is more like a medium or large…XXL is like a large…just an FYI for those with a one-pack rather than a six-pack.
View all comments by Indu WangZi
I can post T-shirts to UK people when I return to the UK if that helps?
ssB… yeah…. lose the naff phrase (sorry JD) and maybe even turn them into Polo Shirts so people can wear them for occassions other than decorating?

I’ll take an XX Large, if U.S. sizes, then XLarge. Maybe another roach will find its way into the shipment.
Thanks.
Happy Anniversary!!

I’m down for a (Western) XL. Will be proud to wear it in Shanghai- (and Pattaya of course).

Big Dave wants to know if they do XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXL size?
View all comments by Daywalker
Pockets on T-Shirts are not cool, they’re not that great on Polo’s either.
drop the Http:// bit.
You could put the English mango sign on the front (in small, left or right breast area) with the Thai version on the back in big.
How about for those that want to, have their name or sitename on a sleeve?

How about turning those pockets into a seat back and then build out a recliner in front – enclose in a cabin, attach a couple of wings, add a stewardess and obtain a Heathrow slot – see you for breakfast

the very reason i dont allow corporate uniforms or signage on our vehicles…..is the fact the public would indeed see who works for us!!! or who indeed drinks at the bar…scary thought!!
i jest…put a few aside for us visitors who are not so local.
or better still for yourself……start a membership….1000baht, payable per year/lifetime or whatever period and cost u choose.
Payable at the bar whenever we roll into town…gets us a few drinks, a hat, a shirt or whatever gifts u want to bestoy upon us.
An official Gold Member of the BMB Bangkok Thailand….a gold card even…such integrity to it all!

Whats the fuss with the risque, and a tad cheesy, short time quote? These t-shirts are for a specific environment…ie..a whoring one. Nobody is actually thinking of wearing them anywhere other than sleazy bars are they? Oh..and the mango bar!
To the game? No. Job interview? No. Family roast? No. Theatre? No Church even song? No….More tea vicar sorry..whats short time you say vicar? Oh, that means we are only here a short time, and we should say our prayers…day and night. Sit on your lap? No thanks vicar you c***!

SSB – You have it backwards.
The Big Mango Logo and font should be in English so farang (your target market) can easily recognize it, while the “You are only as good as your last short time” should be in Thai, so all of the TG’s get a kick out of it. (Or this phrase in both English and Thai)
Now that we all know who’s idea it is, can we drop the JD, as no one outside the blog (sorry JD) would know who that it.
Of course, you can go tell me to eff off too.. and I am sure you will. But either way I will be sending an email for the purchase
.
By the way is there a YP size, as you know how we both like to wear our shirts tight enough so others can count our shaved chest stubble.

Sent my order in via email — !
Do you provide ‘Order Confirmations’?
LOL
All the best!

How about the shirt be made of some Under Armor type material so it will breath easier for those muggy Bangkok days? I’d also like it to be a button up so I could throw a tie on it and wear it to formal events. I would like to get as much versatility out of the shirt as possible, so if you could sew some reflective bands on the sleeves so as to possibly prevent me from being struck by a som lor or a taxi while I stumple down Sukhumvit that would be great. I think some cheetah fur cuffs would really look sharp to, you know, just to set it apart and really be distinctive. I would also like a large hand print sewn on the back in the shape of “the shocker”, you know, two in the pink, one in the stank! Don’t forget the breast pocket, so I have someplace to put my pens and whatnot. I’d be willing to pay extra for customization, but I’m pretty sure you could just make them to my specs and everyone would be content, haha.

Haha dw…t-shirt to a “roasting” session per se is acceptable usage, not to be confused with the traditional family “roast”. Btw, if your “roasting” wing man happens to be cashley cole, ashtray “usage” is positiveley encouraged….:-)

add RImjob to the end of that front side verse and you’ll have Stern quality shock! Gets straight to the fucking point?
BTW pockets are for ash trays and ash trays can only be properly stowed in the front pocket of your jeans, duhhh!

What kind of Grade ‘A’ quality fabrics will they be made from?

Are they machine washable or dry-clean only?

Think white ones would be better
Granted, black is a slimming color, however black also shows up those pesky everyday stains like blood, vomit and semen and pad-thai grease

“blood, vomit and semen and pad-thai grease”
Geez YP, I guess you’re right. We really Do live in two different worlds.

YP… I guess you’ll be wanting some Mango underpants also?

Would Mango underpants come with the blood,vomit and semen and pad- thai grease supplied or could YP get some extra cash by customising them for you?
