Apparently there are Koreans out there that have a good sense of humor about their culture... unless this site is made by a foreigner. Anyway, it's effing funny!

| and to be honest, not just these shirts, but with any "funny" t-shirt, I can't say that I've ever found one worth looking at more than once or twice. |

Yeah, but if you're wearing it you likely aren't really looking at it while the rest of the world is! |

Yeah but then I could only wear it on vacation. You wear them to work or school once, that's it..after that its going to be.. "oh..that was really funny..the first time" |

| Babo Shirts have been around for two or three years now. Run by a foreigner. Article about it in one of the free English mags out now I think. |

| I had a couple of friends order shirts from this company and after a few washes later, the colors really began to fade and the fabric started getting those little balls that you need to use some kind of clothing shaver to get rid off. Really REALLY low quality T-shirts, nothing like Hanes Beefy-Ts. |

Sure, but that's usually what they're for. Vacations, parties, concerts, walks through unfamiliar neighborhoods with a lot of people who might potentially see them...Though
I'm with stupid --->
has always been one you could wear anywhere anytime!  |

You know, I actually thought about starting a T-shirt company with deliberately ridiculous Engrish on them but I then I realized I would have too much competition. |
