The 12-step thread in the "Other Brands' section got me thinking: What are some weird/odd/clever/inappropriate (or utterly appropriate) T-Shirts slogans, logos, pictures, etc. you have encountered? Remember the forum rules. I'll go first.
I worked a homicide in which an alcoholic in his 30s was beaten to death with a whiskey bottle. Yes, I see the irony. We made an arrest and I was presenting the autopsy report in the probable cause hearing. The defense counsel decided to make a point of the dead man's T-shirt, although it had absolutely no bearing on the cause of death or his client's guilt or innocence. I knew the caption under the design would be painful to the deceased's sister, who attended. So did the lawyer, but he went after it anyway. I decided to make him work for it. He asked me to describe the shirt. I said it was brown. Was there anything on it? A picture. Step by step I described each of the elements of the picture one question at a time. I even mentioned mustard. Finally after I admitted there was lettering I had to give up the caption. Under a picture of horse, reins dangling, outside an outhouse with boot tracks leading to the door: "We all gotta go sometime".
Your turn.
