I'm pretty keen on winning a 't-shirt design' competition but because i'm not funny i need help and i know that some of you guys are pretty witty..yes, yes you are  anyway, the task is to come up with a slogan about civil engineers. (because that's what i'm studying). i was thinking something along the lines of 'don't use anything civil engineers build. i'm one and i wouldn't'..except more funny. meh i'm no comic. i do civil engineering and all they gave me was this lame t-shirt. bit overdone methinks. the mining engineers had t-shirts which said 'go out with miners, we go down in the dark' which i thought was quite amusing. so anything? i'll give you full credit for something funny after the people in charge think i came up with it  | ||

Reputation: Reputation Power: 5 | well after putting all these entries in, and i did make acknowledgment that these weren't my ideas, the civil engineering school voted on Mythor's Our Erections Last A Lifetime slogan. the runner up in the competition was a slogan that said 'Civil Engineering...At least it's not an Arts Degree' which i thought was lame, cause you could apply that to anything. the tshirt is going to have the slogan on it, and a picture of the leaning tower of piza. they're really gonna start printing these. so if you see them, you will know this is where it originated from thanks dudes, for your help in helping me with this comp  | ||

Reputation: Reputation Power: 5 | no nifty prize, just the honour of having the slogan on the t-shirt, and one free t-shirt!! they're only going to print 100 to start with, and depending on how much interest there is, they may get another 100 done, and then they're going to sell them year after year until they all disappear, so that's somewhat of an honour too. hehehe | ||

Reputation: Reputation Power: 2 | See I don't have any old arts degree, I have a contemporary arts degree. It's amazing how many people in my course argued it was more vocationally based than the stock standard arts degree. Yeh, well, could could say that.....although how many drama majors get regular work as a result from their contemporary arts degree!! | ||

Miners go hard for 8 hours!" We had it on display at the front of work for a few months after until an old lady complained to the Mayor and he made us take it down.  We also have bumber stickers saying "Mt Isa... where half the population are having sex with minors" (an oldie but a goodie lol) and our tourist information centre and local souvenir shop sell shirts that say "Happiness is Mount Isa in the rearview mirror" with a little pic of Mount Isa in a rear view mirror. The mayor tried to stop them from being sold as well but the town revolted and the shirts remain! lol *sigh* I love hating my town | ||
