Today I saw a woman getting out of the bus. She had a multi-colored shirt on and it said in huge white letters "I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THIS SAYS".

And indeed. She didn't.

I just wish this trend extended to tattooing like Westerners with kanji.

The best t shirt I ever saw in Korea was on an obviously pregnant Korean woman. It said "We should not be lovers," in big letters.

I once saw a fat little boy wearing a shirt that said "Making love is easy".

I have seen the ultimate T-shirt, and it is, without a doubt, "LADY, I'll always remember the look in your eyes when we fist."

Shocked

How about the shirts with giant pot leaves on them? I've seen a few people wearing them...

My girlfriend claims that people think they are maple leaves...

Today I saw an older guy on the subway wearing a girly pink/purple cap. It said(and I copied this down after maneuvering myself into a better vantage point)

Sporty and Feminine

Banjois, you win. That is the best.

I thought my M3 kid with the chocolate bar named peanut butter motherfu@@@ on his tee was the best. Not anymore.

I truly laughed out loud. Thanks.

One of the girls in my 4th grade class was wearing a shirt with MC Hammer on it. I said to her "You like MC Hammer?" and I pointed to her shirt.

She just said "He is black uhh."

The strange thing is that it was this lime green shirt with a bright red picture of MC Hammer.

I saw a jacket type thing with USA written below a Union Jack flag, but that's all I got.

Awesome reply!


So last Friday I saw the trifecta:

1) "Money Over Bi t ches" on a miniskirted, high-heeled student.

2) A guy with a shirt that said "Actually, I like a little junk in the trunk" with a treasure chest clip-art graphic.

3) A girl with a shirt that said "Strictly for my ninjas" and some dancing ninjas beneath.

It's in a small town college, but it took me back to urban America. They were all shirts I'd seen before in the US, probably pirated images. And then Monday, a student with with a shirt that said "Makin' knots" above a roll of US currency. On the back? "Don't get it twisted!". Indeed.

I could spend the bulk of my day jotting down the insanity I see.

my all time favorite was one of my first grade students( a 6 year old kid). She wandered into my classroom one morning and proudly showed me it because it had so much English on it.

Her version didn't have the BEEP!s, btw.

One of my former 6th grade girls had a jacket that said, or rather advertised,
"Sexy Girl, Escort for Hire". To be honest, I found that one a little disturbing.

There's one kid who wears a top with "he is my boyfriend" written on it. I had no idea how to explain that one to him.
