This robot t-shirt is open for interpretation -- it's either adorable or ironic, aggressive or endearing, depending on who's wearing it.
The killer robot t-shirt features a hand-drawn design of little robot with outstretched, claw-like arms. Lettering near the robot's head shows the small cyborg saying "destroy. maim. kill. et cetera." It's a funny, lighthearted take on the common sci-fi theme of rogue robots and murderous androids.
The robot t-shirt is for sale for a limited time through Cotton Bureau, a site that offers a curated selection of independent artist-designed apparel. Artists submit designs to Cotton Bureau, which selects the best ones and then does the work of transforming them into high-quality wearables to be sold online.
