Inspired by my “WWJD For A Klondike Bar?” shirt.

Just yesterday I saw somebody with one that read “The Guy That Killed Hitler Was A Real Asshole”.  
Which ones have you personally seen? _Please_, no links to companies that print shirts-This is about what you have seen.

My favorite shirt until it wore out and fell to pieces said:

No, I will not fix your computer.

I used to wear it to parties.

I have several.

Front: “Help is on the way.” Back: “Help is heading out the door.” (I was in IT.)

“National Sarcasm Society. Like we need your help.”

“Salvador Dalek” (A picture of melting Daleks from _Doctor Who_ a la Dali’s “The Persistence of Memory.”)

A shirt with the entire “Who’s on First” routine on the back.

A picture of ET’s bicycle towing the TARDIS by Tom Baker’s scarf.

A parody of the Arm and Hammer logo with the words “By Grabthar’s Hammer. What savings!”

“I make Things Up” (I’m an author).

One of my current shirts says

“Am I perfect?  
No.  
Am I trying to be a better person?  
Also no.”

When I was in pharmacy school, I had a t-shirt, which I’m pretty sure is packed away somewhere, that said “LSD” in big letters, and “ets tudy rugs” in small letters underneath. I also had a Sandra Boynton cartoon t-shirt captioned “Lifestyles Of The Broke and Obscure” which had one of her cats elbows-deep in a sink of dishes.

Around the same time, early 1990s, there were t-shirts that had various animate or inanimate objects having sex in different positions. My favorite story about them came from a junior high teacher who said that one of his students, one that surprised everyone, came to school wearing such a shirt, and she was called into the principal’s office and told that she had to turn that shirt inside out, and why. It turned out that she really liked lizards, and HER MOTHER had bought her that shirt, not realizing what they were all doing!

One of my high school classmates, back in the day, had a t-shirt that looked like the adidas logo, but it actually said “adidn’t.” Never saw it anywhere else.

Inspired by the crowds and some religious t shirts when I was in Nashville recently.

On the back in large letters “God Bless You”

And in much smaller letters “If that was you who just sneezed on my neck”

I’m not much for wearing funny t-shirts, but I thought about having that printed up.

Bold white type on a black T-shirt.

I saw a guy wearing a t-shirt that said:

SOLVEM  
PROBLER

Thought that was pretty clever.
