Inspiration Needed - One-Liners

[etali]

When I go to Sweden I'll be meeting some friends who play the same computer game as me. My husband and I have decided to get some T-Shirts printed with jokes about the game. He has his worked out, but I can't think of what to put on mine.

I play a race in the game that is the underdog. Hardly any of the players are that race any more, and the people who are usually choose to learn extra skills to use other races equipment. Our space ships look like trash metal, and even the game developers make jokes about how bad we are.

Soo, I'm after one-liners about bad cars or trucks that I can convert to be about space ships. I've found some two-liners, like 'What do you call a Skoda with a sun roof? A Skip', but I was after a one liner to match my husbands.

The only one liner I've found so far is one of those XYZ do it in... type jokes turned in to Minmatar pilots do it in trash - but thats not really tasteful.

If anyone can think of anything within the next day or so (they need printed SOON! Then I'd really love to hear some suggestions!

How about these:

1. "Your ship was made by FORD because it was Found On Road Dead"
2. "Your ship's built like a cheap FORD: Flip Over, Read Directions" I know other cars' names spell out something - maybe you can find them on google.
3. Also, maybe you can do a variation of "Yo Mamma's so ugly..." to "Your Ship's So Ugly that when its momma gave birth to it, the doctor slapped its momma!"
4. Your ship is so stupid it couldn't read a book on tape!
5. How many of your ships does it take to screw in a lightbulb? 5 (or 10) - one to hold the bulb, four (or nine) to spin the bulb holder around in its seat!
6. Your ship must be blonde (then use some blonde joke)

Ooh, I like the idea of using an acronym! I remember seeing some funny acronym generators a while back, I'll mess around with one and see if I can get something relevant.

Thanks

Very good Elaine, I don't think I could top those! FUNNY! Oh but you could find a sloganizer online that will add any word into a popular slogan or movie line.

Wait a minute!! I drive a Ford. And It wasn't found on the road dead nor is it a bad vehicle! I worked for a Chevy dealership and let me tell you something they are seriously some bad cars! You wouldn't believe the problems they have with those cars. Sorry...

My Dad was very serious about his vehicles and the only truck he would own was a FORD, but then again we had about 4 cadilacs.

Sorry for insulting your car, Kelli! I know there's funny acronym for Chevy, too. And I had one of those and the transmission was terrible! The first car I owned was a new Saturn coupe and I LOVED her! She was red and I drove that plastic car everywhere for seven years and she had a great engine and terrific mileage, no complaints, really! I was a little sad when we traded her in for a family car - a Toyota Highlander - also red!

It's okay. I make fun of Fords sometimes too, but I never thought I'd have one LOL I like my Explorer for the most part. Gas is horrible though!

Car makes inspire a lot of loyalty in their owners don't they

Thanks for the suggestions - I ended up using a joke where the ship was made of soft drink cans, and twisting it to use the soft drink brand that they made up for that universe. Unfortunately the T-Shirt didn't arrive in time for the trip, but theres another party being organised in London a few days before we go to Germany, so we'll swing by that one and I can wear it then.

Don't be a shiphead.

Glad you like it. I saw that on a car bumper sticker. It was an old car and the sticker said "Don't laugh, it's paid for.
