Awful Cathy-esque Vintage T-Shirt Open Thread

Too Sexy for This Shirt

Awful Cathy-esque Vintage T-Shirt Open Thread

Heather Sundell Wednesday, December 26, 2012

I got this damn thing in a fabulous vintage store right in the Haight, on a recent trip to San Francisco. In college I was very diligent about perusing vintage stores for the most perfectly worn-in ironic T-shirt. Obviously I had no real adult life, so there was time for important things like T-shirt collecting.

One day, I decided I needed to refresh my drawer of used tops, and took my time inspecting every shirt in the store. When I picked this “thing” up, I had to stop and READ. What a gloriously awful message! I prayed that it fit. It did, and I proudly bought the most terrible T-shirt I have ever seen. It’s truly ironic.

What do you guys think about this shirt? Is too bad to even wear in public, or can I own it?

Can I just say…it fits really well, and that is very hard to find in a vintage t-shirt.

I wish I had the entire backstory for this thing, Sundell. Whenever I see an absurd piece of clothing I always think about the amount of human labor and steps of production that had to happen to birth the thing – author of the quote, “design”, manufacturing, distribution. Someone felt this strongly about having this message heard. It makes me feel like I am living an utterly passionless life.

I, uh, have not been able to read that t-shirt, try as I might. You are correct, it does fit really well.
