Ooh, I want one of those bleening shirts!: yankeebird; | Mar 14, 2008 at 09:59 AM

"And like hamsters, they'll be around for a limited time." Boooooooooooooooooo. That makes me sad. :(: Kat; | Mar 14, 2008 at 09:59 AM

If only they had it in maternity sizes! Still supery great!: Mimi; | Mar 14, 2008 at 10:01 AM

I'm gettin' one NOW! W00t! Say, does anyone know why the interwebs quits sometimes when I get onto CO? It's weird!: zeldapie; | Mar 14, 2008 at 10:28 AM

Mimi, you won't be in a maternity size forever! And you'll really regret not having this when you're not in maternity clothes....: yankeebird; | Mar 14, 2008 at 10:39 AM

schweet!: Michelle; | Mar 14, 2008 at 10:40 AM

HAMPANTS HAMPANTS RAH RAH RAH: Theo; | Mar 14, 2008 at 10:43 AM

Damn. I can't decide between brown or pink, so I'm going to have to buy both!: Mary; | Mar 14, 2008 at 10:48 AM

Before I order, has anyone ever ordered AA shirts before? I *hate* buying shirts I can't try on and don't want to get the wrong size. Do they shrink much? Can you compare the size to shirts from another retailer, like Target or Old Navy?: yankeebird; | Mar 14, 2008 at 10:58 AM

I LUUUURVE THEM!: Emily; | Mar 14, 2008 at 11:04 AM

woot! just bought my hampants shirt! in fact i bought 3...1 for moi, and 2 for friends of CO. yippy skippy!: joods; | Mar 14, 2008 at 11:05 AM

size question If I want a pink shirt - and it's in the "charge more because I wear a bigger size, which isn't really fair, but who cares" size - does it still come in pink?: Carrie; | Mar 14, 2008 at 11:09 AM

Yankeebird, my understanding is that AA shirts run rather snug. Here is a sizing note from wootshirt.com "Please check American Apparel's sizing chart for men or for women before you order. The Woot Tee, constructed by American Apparel, follows their classic closer-fitting style. If you prefer a baggier look, order a larger size. If there is not a larger size, consider starting a belly-hanging-out trend.": tuppermaddie; | Mar 14, 2008 at 11:14 AM

So cute! Wish they came in a v-neck and/or a baby onesie!: bees on pie; | Mar 14, 2008 at 11:16 AM

""And like hamsters, they'll be around for a limited time." Boooooooooooooooooo. That makes me sad. :(" Makes me larf. It is this soupçon of self-conscious edge that keeps me comin back.: Rebecca; | Mar 14, 2008 at 11:21 AM

AA shirts run really small. I normally wear a small in Old Navy shirts, but AA I wear a large (sometimes medium if it's really loose-fitting). Definitely order big on the women's products!: homer mariner; | Mar 14, 2008 at 11:30 AM

Hams on racks!: S; | Mar 14, 2008 at 11:30 AM

Yeah! My old CO hamster tee is finally getting worn out. That's what happens when you wear it every Friday for a year... This time I ordered two!: Cynthia; | Mar 14, 2008 at 11:40 AM

I imagine you live in a different world when you worry about the number of "A"s in your shirt size as opposed to the number of "X"s. Couldn't we change teh sizes to refer to cute animals? X Smalls == hammie Small == kitteh/bunneh Medium == small doggeh Large == big doggeh X Large == OMGPON1ES!! XX Large == panda bear XXX Large == sasquatch: berthaslave; | Mar 14, 2008 at 11:51 AM

PANTS! Hey, wait, where's the hamsterette's pants? Nice cedille, Rebecca.: Pheas; | Mar 14, 2008 at 12:05 PM

yay! my coworker just ordered one for me, and one for me as a b-day present!: anner; | Mar 14, 2008 at 12:18 PM

great :( now I need sasquatch sizes *sniffle* I think I'm hurt - but I'm not quite sure.: Carrie; | Mar 14, 2008 at 12:26 PM

I agree, Pheas. Amen, Rebecca! It's Meg's slightly off-kilter dark humour that keeps CO from being treacly and makes it so enjoyable and unpredictable. Huzzah for Meg. Vive teh CO.: Kits; | Mar 14, 2008 at 12:50 PM

Oh berthaslave. That was funny. Sasquatch! HEE!: (the original) Mel; | Mar 14, 2008 at 01:13 PM

I was afraid you'd make the pink ones be girl shirts and the brown ones be boy shits. I am so happy I can get any of them in "girlie" or "unisex"!: oakling; | Mar 14, 2008 at 01:35 PM

Oh My! Such an unintended typo, yet so funneh...: momof2kitties; | Mar 14, 2008 at 01:42 PM

Carrie, I think we should make XXX be Polar Bears--- they're gorgeous, cute, awesome and amazing. NOT that there's anything WRONG with Mr/Ms Sasquatch, it's just that they're not quite so photogenic...: SoCalSis; | Mar 14, 2008 at 01:49 PM

Hamsterette is wearing a gauzy skirt.: cosmiquemuffin; | Mar 14, 2008 at 01:51 PM

The brown ones are boy WHAT, oakling? :): Noelegy; | Mar 14, 2008 at 02:19 PM

BAHAHAHA. :D Oakling's typo reminds me of a Freudian slip in a poetry reading I caught a bit of... tense mood, walker making eye contact with a magnificent stag..... "There we stood, in each other's shite. ...SIGHT!!": Clare; | Mar 14, 2008 at 02:25 PM

Yes, polar bear is better....sorry I didn't think of that. (Said from a man who definitely resembles a polar bear).: berthaslave; | Mar 14, 2008 at 02:29 PM

aww, i thought they would be tshirts FOR hamsters... can we have pet sizes too?: aware; | Mar 14, 2008 at 02:33 PM

sasquatch = cute animal? You did not say that! couldn't it have been brown bear...those are cute.: metsakins; | Mar 14, 2008 at 02:42 PM

T's = That which belongs to T Ts = The plural of T Poor misused apostrophe. Friendly Grammar Police.: Suzanne; | Mar 14, 2008 at 02:43 PM

sowwies, I took so long reading the comments that the polar bear suggestion wasn't on there while I was typing!: metsakins; | Mar 14, 2008 at 02:43 PM

Yeah to what others have said - I'm a size 8-ish to 10-ish woman and I wear a large in American Apparel girly t-shirts. (I don't know how the guy sizes run.) I can wear a medium girly, but it's pret-ty snug.: hey-h; | Mar 14, 2008 at 02:52 PM

Why oh why doesn't the pink one come in 3X??? :(( And plz to not be calling me sasquatch, it's not very nice.: Helene; | Mar 14, 2008 at 03:24 PM

Grammar Police, I share your distaste for the inappropriate apostrophe, but this case is more of a judgment call. http://grammar.ccc.commnet.edu/grammar/marks/apostrophe.htm An apostrophe is also used to form some plurals, especially the plural of letters and digits. Raoul got four A's last term and his sister got four 6's in the ice-skating competition. This is particularly useful when the letter being pluralized is in the lower case: "minding one's p's and q's" or "Don't forget to dot your i's." (In a context in which the plural is clear, apostrophes after upper-case letters are not necessary: "He got four As, two Bs, and three Cs.") It is no longer considered necessary or even correct to create the plural of years or decades or abbreviations with an apostrophe:: Pheas; | Mar 14, 2008 at 03:30 PM

I'm unclear on the ordering. Which one is the "girlie"? Which one is the unisex? I would think the girlie would be the pink one, and vice versa, but the cut of the brown one is a girls baby-t cut with ringer sleeves, and the pink t shirt has boycut sleeves. Or are they the same sleeves and I just can't tell because of the threading reflection?: gndtn; | Mar 14, 2008 at 03:35 PM

Nev'mind.: gndtn; | Mar 14, 2008 at 03:41 PM

I ordered mine!!! The links Meg put in only go to the girlie version, if you want the unisex/man shirt you gotta click on "March Only" at the top of the website and then you can select that kind.: Tamara; | Mar 14, 2008 at 04:32 PM

thank god for these!!: Marianne; | Mar 14, 2008 at 06:11 PM

Actually, Pheas, I would say that an apostrophe is needed in "he got four A's," because "As" is a word. But as you say, it's a judgment call. And I can't decide which shirt to choose. I like the girlie hammie better, but I hate pink.: AuntieMame; | Mar 14, 2008 at 06:29 PM

For Helene: The pink tee is available in 3XL, you just have to choose "unisex" instead of "girlie": Gazz; | Mar 14, 2008 at 08:19 PM

Again...I'm sorry if I offended any larger peeps by calling the 3x size "Sasquatch." I just couldn't think of anything bigger than a panda bear that would be suitable -- I thought "Grizzly" but that's more scary than cute, so I just went over the top with Sasquatch (and MAYBE THEY ARE CUTE, just sayin'). I also chose sasquatch because they are really freaking hairy, like me. I'm a big hairy man. And proud of it (though I should lose a few, of course). I certainly didn't mean to imply that others who need that size look like sasquatches (note no apostrophe) the way that I do. (Well, sasquatch...I look like ONE sasquatch). Silly me to forget Polar Bear (I mean, I adore Flocke!). Polar bears of all sizes are beautiful and noble creatures.: berthaslave; | Mar 14, 2008 at 09:09 PM

Sasquatch does not bother me, but I prefer perhaps Yeti. I don't know I always found the Bumble cute in Rudolph... Plus berthaslave, there are not many larger animals that would not be insulting (killer whale, elephant, etc.) But for the tall 3x among us how about giraffe?: mom2twinzz; | Mar 14, 2008 at 09:30 PM

Awww, these are sweet. But BAROOOO for them being limited! :(: Subhangi; | Mar 14, 2008 at 10:15 PM

groovy! i don't know which color i want!: amber; | Mar 14, 2008 at 10:38 PM

maybe both! :): amber; | Mar 14, 2008 at 10:44 PM

LOL/CRY at "Limited Time..." I'll tell all my friends to have a look-see, tho.: possumpiratess; | Mar 14, 2008 at 11:13 PM

waaa! they dont come in XXS for my daughter. I wanted to get one of each so we could go out as a pair. me in the pants and hers in the pink!: lil; | Mar 15, 2008 at 02:03 AM

YIKES!!! After reading the posts on sizing, I've got a feeling that my "panda bear" (2x) ain't gonna fit! Oh well.: Gail; | Mar 15, 2008 at 04:10 AM

AuntieMame, I agree with you. The example is not my own but from the source cited. I find the apostrophe helps the reader, as you suggest, and that's really the [EXCLAMATION!] point of punctuation. [Heh heh heh... - Ed.]: Pheas; | Mar 15, 2008 at 07:41 AM

The tees are very cute and since I was there I went browsing through the site. LOL did you see the one that is a periodic table of sloth Sn Tv Bd. HEhehehe: Annie; | Mar 15, 2008 at 09:01 AM

Thirding the request for pet sizes next time! I know AA makes puppy t-shirts. My dog would love to pimp for CO.: Patrice; | Mar 15, 2008 at 09:09 AM

I have cats so t-shirts are not their friend but I agree animal outfits would be so adorable plus you could match.. I want to put in a request and I wonder if maybe I am the only one but I go to COllege Now.. and a messenger bag with the hammie logo on it would be awesome.. or even if I could only get a patch I could add it myself to a plain bag. Please???? Looks at Meg with Big ol sad puppy dog eyes.. Hmmm, not working... holds up picture of adorable baby knute PLEEEEEASE?????: Annie; | Mar 15, 2008 at 09:15 AM

Hmmmmm Hey I know a lady here in town who puts logos on hats etc...... can I get permission to see if she can do some bags.... TEHO Help... what is the procedure. Maybe if there are enough people who want one I can get it set up thru her to make some.....(MESSENGER BAGS with the logo) OR does it have t go tru these folks witht he t-shirts... Legal Agreements being what they are.: Annie; | Mar 15, 2008 at 09:20 AM

snort@Ed. http://tinyurl.com/32erfz: Pheas; | Mar 15, 2008 at 10:16 AM

How cuuute I want one: abad; | Mar 16, 2008 at 10:32 AM

Thanks for the info Pheas! Suzanne (a.k.a grammar police): suzanne; | Mar 16, 2008 at 01:23 PM

@zeldapie: I'm having the same problem. I'm having to sneak onto another computer to get my CO fix these days. @Suzanne, Pheas, Mame: Arrrrrgh! My pet pet peeve! I'm with Suzanne: While it may not be technically incorrect, I prefer to spare the poor abused apostrophe whenever possible. My heroes: http://www.apostrophe.fsnet.co.uk/: Babs; | Mar 17, 2008 at 06:58 AM

Noooooo! This ordering page was so confusing! I thought I was ordering the brown, but now the glarkware people tell me I ordered pink! I've emailed them to try to get the order changed... but really, there needs to be some clarification on that order page- that you're selecting BROWN or PINK, not Girlie or Unisex or whatever.: girlnextdoortn; | Mar 17, 2008 at 09:37 AM

Will someone buy me one of each color? *sniffle* I'm financially challenged, and I think I want one of each although brown makes me look ooky. That would be in Sasquatch style please.: Carrie; | Mar 17, 2008 at 05:46 PM

can y'all believe I almost FORGOT to get my shirt(s)? just got them ordered now, right in the nick of time. whee! the rest of y'all: what are you waiting for!: mariser; | Mar 31, 2008 at 05:53 PM
