Do keep in mind that if a friend actually follows through, you've significantly raised the stakes of saying "no" later.
Absolutely - so don't be insincere in the setup. If you think "no way", say "no way".
Yup. I learned the business version of this early in my consulting career. One of my consultant buddies, David Schmaltz, calls it a "Dedication Test". It's a small habit with huge positive effects.
Where in that (long) post does he say that?
Form and content are not that easily separated. For instance, I like #15 (a bit), because the typography fits the message.
Instead, I'd suggest you focus on design that reinforces, ideally in a humorous way, the message of the slogan.
I feel strongly that "Please Provide an Example" ought to have the word "example" consist of hairy green ball things, in homage to Fenyman's famous explanation of how he would debug math or physics claim by turning abstract concepts into imagined examples.
"I notice I am confused" could play on a classic "magnifier" icon in the word "notice", and jumble up the letters of "cnfosued", or mess up their typography.
Would appreciate an explanation from whoever downvoted the parent.
You might also want to hire (or otherwise team up with) people who publish designs on sites like RedBubble or Threadless.

I don't think that rings are good for blood flow in the finger.
Most women I know wear at least one ring, often more. Their fingers haven't fallen off and don't look to be blood-starved. Most married men wear a ring. Their fingers look fine, too.
Whatever happened to looking for evidence?
Strange, I clicked on it, and it went to the actual page for me. Regardless, I edited it and re-added the link. Here's another link to the same place, please try it and see if it goes to the right place for you.
What I suspect is happening, based on (just now) clicking the same link twice in a row and going once to a 404, then the next time to the intended page: one of the Web servers in the site's load balancing rotation is misconfigured, and systematically throwing errors.
You might want to ask them to look into it.

"No one knows what science doesn't know."
This sort of anthropomorphic bias leads to conceptual errors. 'Science' is the method of acquiring knowledge and the collection of acquired knowledge to which the method is rigorously applied. It is incapable of knowing anything independently of what individuals know; in fact, it can't know anything at all without some knowing individual to practice it. And to be sure, we can know things 'science doesn't know': we know we are in love, that we are happy or sad, that we played baseball for the first time when we were 6 years old at the park in Glens Falls, etc.
