Toxic BBQ T-Shirt Slogan Contest

[[Syntax]]

Once again, the Toxic BBQ is looking for a slogan.
Something catchy, something creative. It will be used
on the front of the Toxic BBQ T-Shirts.

Last year was ASTCells slogan
"If its dead we cook it"
"If its alive we cook it"
" ... a little longer."


Submit your ideas.

[converge]

fwiw, last years thread (http://forum.defcon.org/showthread.php?t=7262) may help spark some thoughts, as well as give a history of prior slogans.

[astcell]

Depleted Uranium. It's what's for dinner.

[Deviant Ollam]

Tannerite, Thermite, a Thermic Lance, and a Truckload of Meat... We'll find a way to make something happen with all this.

0xDEADBEEFhah! that's outstanding. i didn't realize exactly that you had submitted something (thought that was a sig for a second) until i gave it a second glance. absolutely terrific.

I think it would go well on a shirt that had some pictures of food from video games.... you know, a Castlevania potroast, a "%" from Nethack, maybe some Gibs from Quake III....

[converge]

expanding on virosa's idea:

00 13 37 0F 00 D0 :: A couple 8-bit NES/Commodore food
00 BA D0 FE D5 00 :: Icons burgertime, castelvania?
00 DE AD 0B EE F0 :: (syntax? is that problematic on cost
00 7B B2 00 04 00 :: if graphics screened next to text?)

variations on the tangent? (00 D7 01 50 13 37, teehee) ?

We had two bags of onions, seventy-five differnt meats, five sheets of aluminium foil, a saltshaker half-full of garlic powder, and a whole multi colored collection of utencils, peppers, stuffings, spices... Also, a quart of olive oil, a quart of venager, a case of flea's hot sause, a pint of che's gin, and two dozen eggs. Not that we needed all that for the BBQ, but once you get into a serious cookout collection, the tendency is to push it as far as you can.

Good one! What is the decimal equivalent?

[DaKahuna]

"Meat, meat and more meat"

"Become one with nature"
"then kill, cook and eat it"

'Real hackers don't need recipes"

"Official PETA member"
"People eating tasty anminals"

"You kill it, I'll grill it"

"Finish you beer, there are sober kids in India"

"Man can not live by beer along,
that's why God created steak"

[Virosa]

How about just a picture of a platter of ribs with the caption "+25 HEALTH" under it?

[renderman]

TBBQ4: "Where the meat isn't the only thing well marinated"

Quad core Xeon, BBQ grill, what's the difference?

TBBQ4:"See, Hackers do go outside.....To kill things and eat them"



And some of my past submitted favorites for reconsideration;

Grill of the BBQ. Grill of the car. As long as it's dead, we don't care.

DC TBBQ: "Where the elite meet to grill meat"

Defcon Toxic BBQ: If the booze does'nt kill you, the steak sauce will

The WMD shirt is the coolest thing I have seen all day. I was in Romania a few years back, and as I was wandering around towns, I had castlevania music pumpin' in my ears.

I was all envisioning jumping around platforms and whipping peasants and candle sconces and large bats and whatnot.

[converge]

.. probably another reason why Romanian peasants don't care so much for American and Japanese visitors ..

Graphics on the front side arent an issue, what is an issue is multi color.
As it stands its 2 color on the back and 1 color on the front..

White logo on the front with text is no issue.

So far all I had come up with was something like this.

Toxic BBQ IV:
Where Cannonball Roadkill,
Meats the Toxic Grill.

Toxic BBQ IV:
Reducing The Cow Population,
1 Year At A Time.

[astcell]

Mad cow, bird flu....tastes the same to us.

[[Syntax]]

Still need more suggestions, how about

"Don't let it get away.."
"We can cook it at the BBQ"

or

Toxic BBQ 4:
Aliens Don't Abduct Cattle
Hackers Do.

[AlxRogan]

"Fast grillers....slow prey"

"Put THIS in your pit and smoke it!"

"Script kiddies make the best kindling"

[lil_freak]

“Toxic BBQ cooking: Have less free time, less money and more fat hacker friends."

"Never leave your barbecue unattended, Unless you want to come back to an empty grill"

[KeLviN]

I much prefer something in the form of a Hiku.

[lil_freak]

I much prefer something in the form of a Hiku.

Here's two Haiku's (the second one doesn't quite meet standards, but oh well) for your pleasure:

#1

Set steaks a’ sizzle
Fueled white hot bed of coals
Toxic Barbecue Four


#2

Hackers they will feast
on toxic food barbecued
charred animals, yum.

[astcell]

Toxic Barbecue
Number Four, it's what we do
Devour Cows. Yum.

"Toxic BBQ.. where ice and beer replaces dead hookers in the trash cans."

"We had to put all that wifi radiation to good use.."

"Where the only dropped packets are ketchup"

"Getting hackers to come out into sunlight for one day a year since 2004"

[Deviant Ollam]

"Where the only dropped packets are ketchup"now that is absolutely golden. can't believe someone didn't make the ketchup packet connection before now. just about anything witty along those lines would get my vote. :biggrin:

[DJ Jackalope]

Using this kind of idea:::

How about a knock off Gauntlet picture with the caption: Hacker needs food badly

[TheCotMan]

Using this kind of idea:::

Wasn't that based on the phrase for "Warrior" ?
(Wizard needs food badly, Elf is about to Die, Warrior needs food badly.)

That makes sense. Warrior used an axe, and obviously did a lot of hacking. :-)

Some of those were promising. The con is closing in, so once the graphics have been fine tuned and ready to print, something will have to be chosen, probably in the next 3 weeks. As mentioned before I can put a small 1 color image next to the text on the front side, rather than 3 lines of text as before we could do.

Toxic BBQ 4

Slogan Here

or

Toxic BBQ 4

or

(image top) Toxic BBQ 4

Depending on the length of the text.

I like the hookers in trashcans one..
Wonder what kind of looks youd get walking around Vegas wearing that.

I like it - multipurpose.

The only good thing I could think of isn't even mine - I'd love to see the food chain picture from the simpsons: http://www.geocities.com/simpsovegan/s7/3f03/3f03.html to be on the shirts in some form.

[DJ Jackalope]

I think that's right.... you could actually just get away without a picture cuz, if you're not 1337, you won't get it anyway...

Maybe we will have a BBQ2GIRL. :-)

I had a new forum member message these to me.. since they were unable to post.

Callipos:

TOXIC BBQ 4
This week's special..
"Biohazard with an extra hint of spice."
$13.37

TOXIC BBQ 4
This week's special...
"Chemically Imbalanced Brain."
$13.37




PS: I dropped the design for the shirt backs at the printers today so they could begin cleaning up and proofing with me.. the HEX
message always boggles their mind and they ask me 3 times to check it before printing.

So... once the back is done, the front slogan will have to be picked.. so we got about 3 weeks until a choice has to be made.

IIRC, people should be able to post *replies* only 24 hours after they have created and account and confirmed their email address.

Posting new threads takes longer.

If they can't reply here, let me know and I will check out why.

I am guessing "LOLWTFBBQ" is out of the question ;)

One of my friends said

Toxic BBQ 4:

They Hacked.

Heres one I came up with..

Toxic BBQ IV:
..Area 51, NV / Las Vegas, NV..
.......Aliens...../.......Hackers......
Cows Disappear Without Trace

Toxic BBQ IV:
Beamed Up By Alien Spacecraft
Grilled By Hackers In The Park
Nevada Makes Cows Disappear


Periods just there for formatting.

Eeek spit roast! :biggrin:

Here are a few of my ideas:


"Toxic BBQ 4.0: Where dead meat with a toxic glow will surely win the show"

"The worst meat ever BBQ'd, will be the you ever tasted at Toxic BBQ 4"

"Hacking meat since 2004"

"Carpe Mortuus Caro" (Seize the Dead Meat/Flesh)

"Assus Mortuus Caro" (Grilled Dead Meat/Flesh)

:cool:

Im going to post a poll soon.
If anyone has a food graphic that when printed in black and white only
is recognizable please message me. I looked at some Castlevania Burgertime
and Gauntlet graphics and none were really recognizable in black and white only.
(not greyscale)

Heres a couple quick renderings of ideas mentioned, I need input, deadline to get
the final order is approaching within the next week or so.

Copy and paste the image URL . The source site has code to look at referring URL:

It is a B&W graphic of just part of Warrior. Might work on one side or the other, in a frame.
