In recent months, there’s been a flurry of t-shirts for designers that have been released (at least half of them involving Helvetica). But what about t-shirts for developers? Usually, these guys (and gals) get the short end of the stick, with black shirts adorned with single-line witticisms that are only funny if you happen to be an uber-geek.

Where are all the COOL t-shirts for developers? Well, we went hunting for some, and came up with our top 5 picks (in no particular order). These t-shirts are even awesome enough to be appreciated by designers, too.

I have no clue what this design’s name means in English, but if I had to guess, I would say it means something like “Chicken sitting on a branch drinking while staying dry.”
