Man, it would be the month I'm trying to keep my budget wide open for summer fun that the brothers chap finally come out with a t-shirt I would wear.

I won't miss $15 + S&H, right?

If anyone in the area has an interest in this shirt as well, I'd love to split shipping.

I'll probably wait and hope they don't sell out or if they do they do a reprint.

I recommend against

It is a simple enough image that you can do it with a printer transfer later but . . .

I think you might be disappointed in how much of an in joke it is, and you might even find yourself in trouble with the authorities who do not understand, and who think you are advocating violence.

Just as you cannot say the word "bomb" on and airplane, it is not good to wear clothes that say anything suspicious.

Recently a man was arrested because English was his second language so he was writing down phrases he did not understand to look them up later, and one of the phrases was "suicide bomber," so we need to be sensitive to the misperceptions of the idiots with the power to hassle us and point guns.

1) I want to give the brother chap money for their continued entertainment endevor. There stuff is better than a lot of the stuff on TV

2) Lost of people know who strong bad is. I want a strong bad T and this is the first one that wasn't ugly to me.

3) As much as the US is sucking, if it's really come to that level, then I'm not sure why we are both here. It doesn't even say explode on it. It says splode. Plus, because of the way the arrest happy is going, they're less likely to arrest a cacasion 5'5" woman.

I'm hoping I can tuck the phrase in my pants, since that's not the best part of it, but not because I'm afraid. I'm sick of the news and the media and the government trying to make me afraid. People are sacrificing their quality of life to be safe and that's just stupid.

(There are drive by shootings in parts in Boston recently and parents solutions in their neighborhoods are to not let their children play outside any more.)

Don't wear the shirt to an airport or when crossing the border. Other than that I wouldn't worry about it.

Get the shirt.
