Ages ago I had a “Jesus Hates Me” t-shirt. ---

I have one that says, “I found Jesus but I’m still looking for Bigfoot.” I got it at a Cryptid Expo this Summer. ---

In high school, some one’s little brother was talked into being our designated driver for a New Year’s Eve party crawl. We hit 5 or 6 different parties and were also heavily drinking in the back of the cargo van. In fact we were doing BORG (blackout rage gallons) long before it was a thing. One party was a toga party and somewhere along the way I lost my shirt, no idea where we got the sheets from. Some one’s parents were out of town so we all slept there. His mother was a psychologist(?), and before I passed out, he gave me a t-shirt to wear. Woke up with a horrendous hang-over, stumbled to the bathroom to discover I was wearing a red t-shirt that said, “I’m glad your alive”. It was a shirt from a Baton Rouge Suicide prevention something something. I loved that shirt, wore it often, unfortunately it was in my backpack that got stolen at a Chicago Blues or Jazz fest. ---

My son gave me a shirt that had an i on one side and an e on the other. The i is saying to the e, “You’re irrational”, while the e is saying, “You’re unreal”. ---

I saw one a few months ago, it had a very cute (children’s book style) lamb illustration.

My best friend’s wife is just about to go through that. So she’s my best friend too. Great woman (she puts up with me and my best friend 🤪 ). It appears that she is gonna be fine thank god. Best friend would really find that shirt funny. We both have the same odd sense of humor. I think it would be too bold of me to buy that for his wife though. I mean it’s way, way too soon. And a very, very personal issue. Plus, there is still plenty to worry about. ---

> [@RealityChuck](#): > > Front: “Help is on the way.” Back: “Help is heading out the door.” (I was in IT.) When I was moving into my first college dorm, the RA’s had shirts with that written on the back. A few years ago I saw someone wearing a shirt for a “ski and social club” (that I assumed was defunct). I asked where they got it and they said it was from a thrift shop. The interesting part being that my grandfather founded that ski club back in the 50’s. Turns out it still exists and still has about 1000 active members. Another one that I always thought was funny was when I was walking into a building and as I headed for the revolving door I saw a guy working on it, wearing a shirt that said “PLEASE USE OTHER DOOR” on the back.
