Jon Bois is a genius. In three years, he will be a household name to vast swaths of American men who love to watch sports-related programming on television. Please bookmark this post and revisit it in 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Was this prediction accurate? What’s the world like in 2022? Did Jared Kushner finally bring peace to the Middle East? Or is he in prison?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Back to Jon Bois. You might know his work from Chart Party<\/a>, a series of videos from SB Nation which dive deep into data and sports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The graphics are incredible. The music<\/a> is even better. If you like sexy, sexy saxophones then you’ll love Chart Party.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He’s also very popular on Twitter. Recently, he tweeted:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

by the time i\u2019m 40 i pledge to:

– refer to all video games as \u201cmario games\u201d
– refer to everything on tv as a \u201cshow\u201d including movies\/sports
– use \u201cspam\u201d and \u201cscam\u201d interchangeably
– download a coupon app on my phone called WalletMunkey or something and never shut up about it\u2014 Jon Bois (@jon_bois)<\/p>

February 15, 2019<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Later, he followed that tweet with this one:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

this tweet turned out to be pretty popular! in celebration, i\u2019ve decided to release it into the public domain. this means you\u2019re free to screencap it, crop out my name, post it to instagram, whatever you\u2019d like to do. it belongs to all of us now\u2014 Jon Bois (@jon_bois)<\/p>

February 16, 2019<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

We honestly couldn’t tell if he was joking or not, but we thought both tweets were very funny.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Releasing it to the public domain meant that anyone could take it, remix it, or use it however they want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We just so happen to sell 40th Birthday T-Shirts<\/a>, so it’s a perfect fit for your old friends at FunnyShirts.org.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We immediately took his text and turned it into a 40th Birthday Pledge Tee<\/a>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"\/<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Here’s a fun thing about us: our design center helps us create designs super quickly. We noticed Jon’s tweet within an hour. We posted our reply with a link to this shirt<\/a> within an hour and five minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We had to decide which bits to include and which to leave off. We eventually had to edit out “refer to everything on tv as a show”. This felt sad, but good new folks: this design is totally customizable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you want to add that part back in, you can! You can make the text say whatever you want. Just follow the link and then hit that customize button.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Add a name. Add an inside joke. Personalize the hell out of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We’re hoping this leads to an avalanche of other twitter users posting hilarious content related to the age of 40, and then immediately releasing those tweets into the public domain. We’re holding our breath!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This post serves as big Thank You to Jon Bois. And since we’re already getting greedy, let’s ask for one more thing: will you please revisit the math behind the Surrender Index from The Saddest Punt in the World<\/a>? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We think more weight should be given to teams that are down by 7 – 16 points, where the game is still theoretically in reach. If you’re down by two scores, but you’re in desperation mode, and you punt it away, then that’s just garbage. It looks like Chris Kluwe has already reached out to you<\/a> about this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
