Retrobot by YesterCool A 1921 play by Karel Capek (that premiered in Czechoslovakia) is credited with coining the term "robot," a derivation of the Czech word robota meaning drudgery. The inter-war science fiction drama detailed a world that manufactured artificial people from synthetic organic material freeing humans of work and drudgery. However, due to their overproduction those roboti would lead humankind to destruction and annihilation.Capek was a strong dissident voice during the period of fascist buildup in Europe in the 1920s and '30s. Fine print: The classic T-shirt has a regular unisex fit (i.e. not athletic/tight-fit) for a great fit for both men and women. Made from 5.0 oz 100% pre-shrunk cotton fabric, with high-density weave for great print quality (Sports Grey is 90/10 cotton/polyester). It features seamless rib collar, double-needle stitched sleeves, bottom hem and front neck for durability. The shirt's tag is tear away, so you can remove it easily. Ladies Slim
