I did almost buy a shirt from there once (the "Vaginas are weird!" shirt) but decided I didn't really want to give them any money.
Oh man this was the only shirt I've seen so far that...well it didn't offend me...but made me go "whoa!"

I saw one for sale at a gas station in South Carolina about 20 years ago or so. Picture of Martin Luther King march on Washington. Caption:

"If I'd know this was gonna happen, I would've picked my own cotton"


At least I didn't see anyone wearing it

I've also seen the one that says "I'm the bitch that fell off."

Yes, but you have to wash it first.
Um, not sure I get this. An oral sex reference? It's vague enough that I can't see anybody getting "livid" over it.

Or I'm just dumb.

Coed Naked, that's right! I never bought one cuz I'm a pretty ugly chick, didn't want to creep anyone out.

I didn't mean those were offensive, though. Kids wore those to school without abandon as well. Just got reminded of them from the Big Johnson mention.

That's got to be the winner of the thread in terms of "amount of courage/stupidity needed to wear it".

I saw a young guy in a rather rednecky bar wearing a shirt that said Jesus is a Cunt. No one bothered him, but he did seem to know a lot of the regulars.

The slogan on our band shirts is our name in the Jack Daniels logo and the caption When You Just Don't Give a Fuck. Nobody comes to our shows, but we sell a lot of shirts!

When I was a teenager

my grandfather moved to the beach. He was a conservative man, and frugal - a veritable survivor of the depression. So, of course, he beachcombed in the mornings. Frequently, he would pass to the grandkids his findings (generally, clothing which we could wear).
He once gave me a shirt which stated on the front:
Chinese 69.
The back: Chu Man Chu.

My mother divested me of this treasure in short order, needless to say.

On the topic of inappropriate gifts not understood as such - when my kid was an infant, my mother happily gave my wife an infant T for the boy that said "Chick Magnet". She had no idea what it was intended to mean (in her head, she had a vision of cute little baby chickens following the kid around).

Not as offensive as the others above, but not destined to be worn, either.

"Jesus is a cunt" shirt. The kid in the photo with him just adds that extra bit of offensiveness.

"No hole is too deep or too sloppy."

This one doesn't even try for humor. "I hate queers."

Or you can just scroll through all of these from People of Walmart.

It's a shirt from the black metal band Cradle Of Filth, a friend of mine has it. She used to wear it a fair bit.

I prefer my Dimmu Borgir "Religion Sickens Me" shirt, as it gets the point across without being needlessly crude. No doubt, plenty of people would take offense at it.

I've also got several shirts with inverted crosses that people have got mildly offended by before. And, ironically, at least two with normal crucifixes (one Black Sabbath, one Nightwish) that other black metal fans have called me on for wearing!

Oh, there's also the Burzum shirt with the picture of the burnt out shell of one of the churches burnt down by various Norwegian black metal types (he didn't burn that particular one down himself, as far as I know). I'm sure people would get upset at that if they what it was.

When I was at a Ryan Adams concert last year I fell in love with and purchased one of his pentagram shirts. The pentagram is pink, and it's circled by 'Ryan Adams' in some kind of metal font. I thought it was the most ironic (yet fitting) thing I'd ever seen and had to have it. I love everything about the shirt... except that I don't dare wear it.

The shirt in question.

That is an awesome shirt! The metal font is very similar to the one Iron Maiden use for their logo, so pretty iconic.

He is a HUGE Iron Maiden fan, and a metal fan in general. That's why the shirt was fitting while being highly ironic because, well, it's Ryan Adams.

When my nephew was an infant, I bought him a t-shirt that said "They Shake Me!" and some tight-asses that saw it got all bent out of shape....

My cousin had to have a double 'modified'-radical mastectomy a few years ago and barely survived. She finally had her final reconstructive surgery last October. I gave her a t-shirt that says, "Yes, they're fake. The real ones tried to kill me!!!" right across her boobs. She and her friends laughed until they cried when they saw it. But the first time she wore it out, she was accosted by some evil bitch (rhymes with RUNT) in Whole Foods and berated for being so flippant about something that kills more women than blah, blah, blah...(she lives in LA, so you can imagine the type)...

My cousin, who had always been polite, mild-mannered and non-confrontational (even in LA, she was a proper Southern Belle), responded with, "If I had a dick, this is where I'd tell you to suck it!" and walked away....

Not offensive, but I always like the T-shirt from a local bank that had the bank and then the words:

We do it with interest!

Then in small type:

She's awesome, and a total BABE, too....she's 15 years older than me (and only five years younger than my mom) but I always had a HUGE CRUSH on her when I was growing up....which would be kinda creepy/gross if I were of the heterosexual persuasion. =)

I have no clue how to post a photo but here's a link to a photo of her on her 50th birthday.... JOY
She lives in L.A. and everyone she knows is in the tv industry (including her husband), so she has no reasonable expectation of privacy....

That woman would have hated Tig Notaro's appearance on Conan last month. (Notaro had a double mastectomy last summer.)

I've reported this before, and it's worth a retelling. I really think this was a case of not knowing what the English said, she was just wearing something with "exotic writing." But I stepped onto an elevator one time here in Bangkok. The only other occupant was this very pretty young Thai girl. She really was gorgeous. But I almost bust my gut trying to keep from laughing out loud during the entire ride down, because she was wearing a T-shirt that said, and in LARGE letters: "I FUCK ON THE FIRST DATE."

The only other incident that came close was spotting another pretty Thai girl waiting for the Skytrain and wearing a T-shirt that said: "Nashville Pussy."

Back in junior high in Texas, I picked up a T-shirt from a booth at the annual county fair that showed two big smiling pieces of feces shaking hands along with the slogan: "Get Your Shit Together." My mother was none too happy when she found that.

I am now reminded of the small child -- she couldn't have been more than five or six years old -- toddling around in a remote part of Tak province in the Lower North wearing an "Itty Bitty Titty Committee" T-shirt about 25 years ago.

Yeah, AFAIK I Fuck on the First Date isn't a band.
I guess Nashville Pussy will be glad to know they have a female fan in Thailand.

Rick, I think you'll enjoy this story about my Cousin Joy also....


Back in 2008, she and her husband were shopping for a new Lexus SUV. Her husband is a nice guy, but he's also 12 years older than her (she was 49 at the time) and doesn't have quite the devilish sense of humor that she and I share.

She was trying to decide between the mid-size (GX470) and full-size (LX570) models and asked the salesman how much bigger the LX570 was. He said "about 10 inches". Then she asked how much more expensive it was, and he said, "about $10,000".

She looked the salesman straight in the face and said, "Well I never thought I'd turn down 10 inches, but I'm not gonna pay $10,000 for it!"

Her husband walked away, red-faced back to their car and they ended up going to another Lexus dealer to get her GX470...or "Stubby" as she has nicknamed it!

I'm kind of amazed, Shodan. It and Sandy Hook are major catalysts for the most recent escalation in the gun debate. I'm Canadian and I heard about the killing via BBC by the next morning.

I hoping what Shodan meant was that he had thought of the shooting incident in question as the "Colorado movie theater shooting" rather than identifying it as the "Batman shooting."

When I was in high school back in the 70's, there were a lot of guys wearing shirts like these. I don't think any of the teachers ever caught on!

I saw a girl, about 14, with a shirt that just said OLD ENOUGH TO BUY BREAD!

THIS probably doesn't seem offensive, except the woman who was wearing it was about 85 years old!

Holy shit, that is horrible.

Not long after 9/11 I saw someone wearing this:

This link is NSF anyone:

http://www.flickr.com/photos/tresser...7347/lightbox/
"I plane NY" with a plane instead of a heart.

I wanted to kill the fucker. Still pisses me off when I think about it.

I used to have a t-shirt of an original GnR album cover. My dad shamed me into throwing it in a fire. I think it ended up on the inside of the album notes.

This link is NSFW
