[Malvern] Like a headache... but with pictures

[Richard Forster]

Yo

For a bunch of creative people who want to Cull The Stupid we sure are 
slow at getting t-shirts designed.

At some point in an otherwise dull day I had an idea (see subject) on 
how to turn an existing good set of words for a shirt into a decent design.

Except I'm still missing some of the words

and the design

But anyway, the story so far is the front of the shirt should read:

Cull the stupid

while the back should read something along the lines of:

Some people are born to stupidity
Others have stupidity thrust upon them
Still more aspire to stupidity over many years
Cull them all!

(I may have forgotten the exact wording here, Chris?)

Then my secret sauce is to have another layer (in Gimp terminology) with 
lots and lots and still yet more descriptive and humorous ways of 
actually performing this cull.

As a first stab (tee hee, see what I did there) I came up with this. I'd 
like additions, alterations and improvements to the words by collective 
wisdom. Putting it all into a real design for a real t-shirt can come 
later (Phil!!).

So without further ado:

stab them, shoot them, hit them with a bat
release the hounds, bury them in the ground, tie them to the tracks
poison them, garotte them, hang them by their necks,
beam them down in a red shirt, ouch that's got to hurt
feed them to lions, feed them to tigers, feed them to bears
push them off a cliff, nail them to a tree
find the allergic ones and sting them with a bee
boil 'em, mash 'em, stick 'em in a stew
crush them with a red lorry, smush them with a yellow lorry
twist out their tongues and bash them 'till they burst
strap them to a bomb, read them poems by a Vogon



Then I ran out of ideas. So, MLUG-landers, what can you add? How can you 
rearrange it to make it flow better?

Ideally there should be so much text that the casual viewer certainly 
can't read it all and from a distance sees it only as texture to the 
graphic design. But up close it will put a grin on their faces. I'm not 
sure whether a) there should be no repeats, which implies the main words 
shouldn't obscure this smaller text (alter the opacity of the layer) or 
b) we can have repeats to fill more space with smaller words and you can 
still eventually read them all despite some being obscured by the main 
words (but more care needed on the exact layout).
