Dead Presidents are Thrilling
I have a decided weakness for Thriller parodies. I think that’s something most children of the eighties share, as Michael Jackson (you know, back before things got… odd) was probably the primary non-cartoon pop cultural figure of my childhood.
Another shirt subject that is pure gold is presidents- unlike the politics attached to more modern figures, classic politicians broadcast patriotism and an appreciation of history.
So when a shirt combines those two ideas… well, it’s certainly worth a look! In the shirt Franklin and the Dead Presidents, the titular historical fellow performs that familiar Thriller dance, flanked by favorite politicians like Roosevelt and Lincoln. Zombified American legends, who could say no to that?
This shirt is a product of the internet cartoon Dr. McNinja, the story of a doctor… who is also a ninja. And if ninjas speak to you more than eighties nostalgia, their shirt Knife Eye Attack is also worth a look.


He’s a doctor. He knows science!

Damn, that’s seriously clever AND funny at the same time. You’re looking at it and thinking, “What the heck is this?” Then you get the Thriller reference…followed by the presidents. Cool.
