Devo inspires Castlevania shirts; Greybush buys a case of Cool-Whip photo

What horrible day to have a cursed wardrobe! Fear not, as Konami is offering up two Castlevania-themed shirts for almost the price of their fine portable games (hello?!!) -- just $19.95 plus shipping and garlic. In my elitist view they're just a tad awkward, but they're way awesome in principle. Let's be artsy fartsy and deconstruct them.

The first has six of the secondary classic weapons classified as Weapons of Mass Destruction written just north of your pubic regionideal if you're about to receive fellatio. The second features the jumping position you always did when you beat a boss in Castlevania 1 when the time freezes after beating a boss, because I know you well and that's exactly what you did. Am I right? (*high five*)

I'm not even going to touch the drug reference. Kids, stay away from Publix and men that look like Ryan Seacrest. It's all fun and games until your head asplode.

Eh, both shirts are too simplistic for my tastes.

Peruvian, only for one night out of the year on a full moon, the shirts appear hidden within a giant castle housing the king of vampires. Bring a whip...

The site says now. In fact, the site says they were available in 2006. Eh?

Please, as if someone wearing that shirt would "receive fellatio"...which is why I won't be picking up these shirts thanks. I admire gaming shirts such as these, maybe sometimes think they're cool, etc...but you won't see me wearing one at least until AFTER I get another girlfriend / get married again (God forbid).

Given today's geopolitical climate I opted for the "Whip It" shirt.

Also: I know for a fact that I WILL receive fellatio wearing this shirt, thus proving you wrong! HA!
