Vagina man shirt

I'm not sure how other people feel about it, but this is my"Vagina Man" shirt I had printed after a night of Jackbox

[–] BackOnMyBS@lemmy.autism.place 12 points 2 months ago (2 children)

What's the meaning behind it?

[–] notnotmike@programming.dev 20 points 2 months ago (1 children)

No meaning - it was just a random picture combined with a random phrase meant to make someone laugh

[–] LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

Jackbox gives me an abdominal workout from laughter

He's so fat you could use these fat creases like a vagina?

Trump merch. then deny that you're aware of the man, his politics, or his presidential run, you just like the brand.

Any sexualized anime girl shirt. I don't care if she's clothed, it's cringe as fuck you're basically wearing a waifu.

[–] bionicjoey@lemmy.ca 16 points 2 months ago

Imagine if someone just walked around with their favourite pornstar plastered on their shirt. Same thing. Wearing a picture of your wank fuel is cringe. Doesn't matter if she's clothed.

[–] HexadecimalSky@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

Quite cringe, but having seen people around college campus with hentai hiodies and lots of "Gamer Supps" shirts, surprisingly not the cringest

Anything that's like "real American patriot" or something similar. Literally anything that calls yourself a patriot.

[–] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 13 points 2 months ago

Hulk Hogan cringe confirmed.

Australia already has this.

Northern Australia is refered to as the Northern Territory or "the NT" also officially abbreviated to NT.

Someone somewhere came up with the slogan "CU in the NT" and its usually printed with "in the" in much smaller font. Its an excuse for dumb fucks to walk around with shirts and stickers on their car with the word "Cunt" on display. For some reason I cannot fathom for the life of me.

Maybe an immitation of a military uniform top? Makes you look like someone who worships the military, but not enough to actually join, and who also doesn't really respect the uniform or its implications. Thats cringy to basically anyone who looks at it, whether they like the military or hate it, almost anywhere the the world, but also still benign enough wear in public.

[–] jordanlund@lemmy.world 16 points 2 months ago

Like a tuxedo shirt only military uniform? Oh, man, I can hear the jimmies rustling now!

Anything with MAGA on it.

I have a sweatshirt that's just the playboy logo crossed out with the circle-and-slash icon. I get a lot of weird looks in it. I bought it from a "modest clothing" retailer at a Christian music festival two decades ago.

It's been brushed on but more specifically the fuckin ahegao clothes. I knew a guy who had the shirt pants and a hoodie with ahegao faces all over it.

My mind immediately goes to gruesome metal album covers. Iron Maiden has some stuff with decaying flesh, exposed bones, and a ton of other stuff that makes the faint of heart go:

But those on the inside to go "heck yeah 🤘"

[–] Iron_Lynx@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

The first example that popped to my mind:

i have a bright red CCCP shirt with a giant picture of moscow on it with a long russian prayer on the back.

Cradle of Filths' Jesus is a Cunt t-shirt caused a fair bit of folks to be uncomfortable. https://www.rollingstone.com/feature/cradle-filth-jesus-controversial-shirt-rock-history-61183/

"Islam is right about women"

(Not a belief I hold, but damn would it get some reactions)

[–] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I'm honestly surprised they don't make women wear sunglasses.

"OH NO!!! THEIR EYES ARE TOO SEXY!!! IT MAKES ME GET A BONER!!!"

I never understood that logic.

[–] m4xie@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

A burqa basically does that:

The term burqa is sometimes conflated with the niqāb even though, in more precise usage, the niqab is a face veil that leaves the eyes uncovered, while a burqa covers the entire body from the top of the head to the ground, with a mesh screen which only allows the wearer to see in front of her.

Although those who demand it usually use religion as a justification...

The wearing of the burqa and other types of face veils have been attested to since pre-Islamic times. Face veiling has not been regarded as a religious requirement by most Islamic scholars, either in the past or the present. A minority of scholars in the Islamic jurisprudence (fiqh) consider it to be obligatory for Muslim women when they are in the presence of non-related (i.e., non-mahram) males. This is in order to prevent men from looking (perversely) at women. Additionally, this does not oblige men to wear eye-covering, but instead to lower their gaze.

I'm currently wearing a t-shirt with some LDS verses on it and one of them mentions modesty. Which is funny because the fabric is so thin you could faintly see my bra around the edges if not for the fact I'm wearing a red plaid/flannel shirt over it.

[–] Travelator@thelemmy.club 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

A guy at work had a shirt that said "Truth is the new hate speech". He was a rabid trumper, so I guess it had something to do with that. I still don't really understand what the hell it's supposed to mean.

[–] rekabis@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 months ago

He was a rabid trumper

Their “alternative facts”, which are entirely fact-free, are the new “truth”.

[–] kionite231@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 months ago

I want to wear a t-shirt which has "fuck google" written on it.

[–] pineapplelover@lemm.ee 3 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Trump stuff. Patriot stuff as well, though, I'd argue both are the same thing. If you're an American patriot, you wouldn't want to be associated with those other nazis/racists/trump supporters.
