Abraham Lincoln once kind of said, "Whatever you are, be a good one." We say that anyone who takes that advice to heart (in particular for their thankless, workaday job) deserves some recognition. Good job, good ditch diggers! Well done, well-doing toilet scrubbers! And we respect you for staying in your lane, replicant eye designers of a perfectly realized dystopian near-future Los Angeles!

Buy Some Modern Art (For Your Torso)

Just join in the fun before Tuesday, February 18th, 2014 at 4:00 PM Pacific Time, otherwise we'll have to run with the submission that's just a glass of wine from My Dinner With Andre.

Those and life's other big questions can seem unanswerable. So let's celebrate the certainties in life. After exhaustively searching across the Internet, we can promise that these are at least five of the new T-shirts you'll like the best, maybe.
