I think the SFWA one is a reference to Margaret Atwood's comment that science fiction is all about talking squids in space (in support of her strange opinion that she doesn't write science fiction).

Posted by: moo at March 7, 2008 10:10 PM Nice/not so good is a matter of personal taste. I like both shirts! If a giant squid started attacking my town, I'd be singing "Go! Go! Godzilla!" But then, I'm a weirdo who listens to classical music and death metal, and reads about string theory while watching professional wrestling. There are so many interesting things in this world! Posted by: Bob at March 8, 2008 2:19 PM @Wim L: That was "talking squid in outer space", specifically to distinguish sf from _Oryx and Crake_.

Posted by: Ole at March 11, 2008 10:31 AM I have to admit I like the 2nd design immensely. Perhaps it is just personal taste, but having some experience with making t-shirts I'd say you were onto a winner there! Well done - will there be any more?
