Asian dudes just love being cool. And what’s cooler than a mildly provocative phrase or, better, a bunch of garbled English words randomly heaped on a t-shirt? Maybe fake Ray-Bans, but those are harder to describe here.
[We photograph as many as possible. Scroll down for the gallery.]
The gems usually fall under one of three categories:
- Attitude (i.e. mildly provocative Hot Topic teenager rejects)
- Douchey (like Attitude but stupider and more chauvinistic… if you know what the words mean)
- Pure Nonsense (Our favorite! Usually based on something vaguely American-sounding, a generic sports thing, or just a string of words that doesn’t belong on clothing)
NOTE: These shirt slogans are displayed here AS IS. All spelling and grammatical errors, gibberish, or unexplained trail-offs into space are the brainchildren of the t-shirt designers; thus, credit is due only to them and the cool Indian dudes who show it off on their proud chests and backs. [However, bracketed comments are ours].
