The Real Life Springfield is finally revealed!
I think I speak for everyone when I say our childhoods would not have been the same without the loveable characters of Springfield. In fact...childhood? About 85% of my Sundays are spent on the sofa watching The Simpsons thinking 'I haven't seen this one - why haven't I seen this one'? The endless pot of goodness is brought to us by Matt Groening - who recently revealed a secret about his inspiration for the setting.
Classed as one of the best-kept secrets in television history, The Simpsons creator Matt Groening has now pointed to Springfield, Oregon, as his inspiration for the animated home town of Homer and the gang. Groening told Smithsonian magazine recently that he was inspired by the television show 'Father Knows Best', which took place in a place called Springfield. He worked out that Springfield was one of the most common city names in the US.
"In anticipation of the success of the show, I thought, 'This will be cool; everyone will think it's their Springfield'. And they do," he said.
The show has made a running joke of hiding the true Springfield location. In one episode, Lisa points to Springfield on a map, but the animated "camera view" is blocked by Bart's head
The city has already incorporated the Simpsons into local lore. The Springfield Museum features a couch similar to the animated one shown in the show's opening credits, and a plaque marking the movie's release.
Here are some snaps from the real Springfield, and the Springfield we know and love...
British streetwear brand Addict launches at TruffleShuffle!
Addict (edikt'; for n. ad'ikt) vt. To give (oneself) up (to some strong habit).1. one addicted, esp.to a past time 2. a person devoted to something -addic'tion n. - addic'tive adj.
Starting life as a menswear label in 1996, Addict has developed a signature style of streetwear that blends classic casual wear with the performance, quality and functionality of high spec outerwear. The brand has over a decade's worth of heritage in the streetwear genre, its roots run deep in the design, music and board sports communities crossing over both to the underground and mainstream alike since birth. Long a favourite of the freesports fraternity, Addict is much more than your common or garden clothing range. Despite the rapid growth in popularity and distribution over the years, Addict has a tight, focused team of individuals who are intensely passionate about the brand and keep a tight reign over its development, producing all clothing, graphics and media for the mainline in-house, focusing on product development, letting the brand evolve naturally rather than bending to fit in with fashion.
Addict regularly work with and support a collection of independent highly sought after artists and illustrators on the more limited edition 'artist series' ranges. A reflection of their general company ethos, the artists and designers Addict work with are sourced mainly on a social basis. The limited edition artist series tees and related products have seen Addict working with a plethora of contemporary talent including long time collaborators She One, C-Law, Mitch and Swifty, Mode 2, Jimi Crayon, Ben Swift, Guy Featherstone, Shogunâ¢, Will Barras, Mr Jago, and Steff Pleatz to name but a few.
Launching this week of TruffleShuffle is our first drop of tees from their much anticipated instalment of Addict X Star Wars tees, featuring art from long time Addict collaborator Mitchy Bwoy. Staying true & accurate to the originalStar Wars designs from the Star Wars Trilogy, this collection of tees show Mitchâs unique, highly detailed, hand drawn vector style which he mixes with a keen colour sense and a healthy dose of ink and spray paint to lethal effect.
âBrought up in the Shires of the North of England, Mitchâs fascination with design and illustration was initiated by a love of comics and the Star Wars phenomenon. His first true influence was Ralph McQuarrie (Star Warsâ chief illustrator) and, much do the disapproval of various art teachers, he spent most of his early years in the realms of fantasy art and graffiti. Concentrating on what he calls âhip hop surrealismâ during his design degree, Mitch spent his final degree year working at Swiftyâs London studio. As Mitch was already a huge fan of Swiftyâs work for Mo Wax and Straight No Chaser magazine, this was a logical progression and served as a valuable apprenticeship. Working from his own London studio over the last 10 years, Mitch has carved his own niche not only in music cover design but also in illustration, fashion and more recently, video production. His work has become synonymous with new music and club culture, working alongside the most prominent musicians of the last decade, including; Amp Fiddler, Bugz in the Attic, Incognito, The Bees, Howie B and many others. In addition, Mitch has worked on many special projects, live paints and collaborations with other artists; 55 Roots for 55 DSL (live paint and group art show with Dragon and Shibuya from Japan), Bacardi brand development (with Mode 2) and Black Twang/We Love You album projects (with Banksy). His reputation has also led to his inclusion in numerous art shows, such as; the Art Basel/ Miami (alongside Doze Green, Swoon, Rostar), Candela Festival/Puerto Rico (with Swifty, Mode 2 and HVW8) and Board / London (with Jamie Hewlett and Pete Fowler).â His series of inter galactic Star Wars designs pay homage to the timeless quality of the original designs featured in the original films released over 30 years ago...

Big Bang Theory T-Shirts Launched!
We are proud to announce the release of Big Bang Theory T-Shirts onto TruffleShuffle.com
As huge tv nerds and avid watchers of pretty much anything that gives us a giggle, naturally we're in love with The Big Bang Theory! This cult American sitcom that first entered our lives back in October 2007 and since has gained a massive following. Now into it's fifth season there have been over 100 episodes for us fans to enjoy!
For those of you not in the know here's a quick bio:
The show is centered on five characters: roommates Leonard Hofstadter and Sheldon Cooper, two physicists who work at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech); Penny, a blonde waitress and aspiring actress who lives across the hall; and Leonard and Sheldon's equally geeky and socially awkward friends and co-workers aerospace engineer Howard Wolowitz and astrophysicist Rajesh Koothrappali. The geekiness and intellect of the four guys is contrasted for comic effect with Penny's social skills and common sense. Three other supporting characters have also been promoted to starring roles: Leslie Winkle, a physicist colleague at Caltech and, at different times, a lover of both Leonard and Howard; Bernadette Rostenkowski, Howard's fiancée, who is a microbiologist and part-time waitress alongside Penny; and Amy Farrah Fowler, a neurobiologist who joins the group after being matched to Sheldon on a dating website. - Wikipedia
From the start of the show he has risen to become a style icon for geeks alike, so much so that there are literally thousands of people searching for his t-shirts online every month!
