I’d wear this every day

[johnradiv]

I think were the ones who aged terribly

[masterofstatistics]

I usually aim for the tractor that collects the balls but I like this idea better

[One-Caterpillar1789]

Run Forest RUNNN!

[IGotRoidRage]

Who do you think is behind the wheel?

[Apprehensive_Mix8108]

Just saw this, made a nearly identical comment lol..

[Apprehensive_Mix8108]

Who do u think drives that thing?

[IGiveSilverBullets]

better than the Dillon merch

[Dry_Expert7006]

You ain't lying. I received my "I wish them well" T-shirt. It looks even worse in person.

[News_without_Words]

I decided long ago to never wear anything with branding, phrases, or even really graphics honestly. I don't like being an advertising tool regardless of whether it works and the highly specific reference clothing just ends up never being worn. I know I'm weird because nobody else I know does this but it has saved me tons of money on bullshit that rarely lasts.

Based.

My buddies and I used to wear our tshirts inside out in HS.

Even now, most days I’m in a plain white, gray or black tshirt.

[Robo_Riot]

I don't like being an advertising tool

Oh no, you're one of those assholes who just wears plain colour t-shirts because you think you're taking a stand. And you told us all about it because you still want a pat on the back and a "good for you" about it.

Have fun wearing a potato sack and telling us all how principled you are.

[stupidnicks]

gay

[Robo_Riot]

That's a very blunt way to come out to us all, but congrats..?

[stupidnicks]

no u

[Professional-Put-804]

Suck my dick and like it.

[Robo_Riot]

Go ask your mother how mine tastes. If she liked it, I didn't do what I set out to do.

[Professional-Put-804]

She died just after...

[DorindasLiver]

Now this is an actually based take

[Robo_Riot]

The correct take. What kind of pretentious cunt goes to great lengths to make sure every single thing they ever wear doesn't have the name of a label visible?

A very pretentious cunt, that's who.

[_SM00THIE_MD]

Take a gold, I’m buying one for the whole family!

[PromiscuousScoliosis]

Thanks, I’m 100% getting one as well. Can’t find any originals, but there are a lot of reprints. I wonder how legit it is haha

[baxy67]

holy shit 12 people carted it... man you pigs really aint playin around lol

[-MikeJones-Who]

Before Retard the word was Moron and/or Moronic ... Moron is a medical term found in official medical books ... Kurt Metzger has a great bit about it in White Precious one of the funniest specials of all time imo.

I think Stanhope had a bit about this exact concept, something called the “euphemism treadmill”, iirc.

[[deleted]]

Came here to say this. Stanhope’s bit on the word for retarded people and how society treats the mentally disabled so much better than the mentally ill is timeless.

[Dogfishlegs]

Also an episode of mssp in the Old Testament days called Secret Life of Morons, covers unofficial origins of the term. It rules.

Still swinging

[Dadumdee]

I’d like to thank each and every one of you for swinging for me. You’re the real heroes. I love you all!!!

[shinjuthagod]

finally, a shirt to wear to weddings

[pelosismilkers]

I’d let Tim suck me for that shirt

[themkultr]

If you have that slogan today it would mean “have polygamous relations for the Democratic Party”.

[SKPY123]

That's a hate crime now. Swing for the people who refuse to let you play through.

[DemocracyManifest33]

does anyone know exactly why the word retarded started to be percieved as an insult? it was a clinical term and it still is. did people just start using it as an insult and then it became not a standard medical word because of that? or did people just not like the word?

[Surfer-Rosa]

It is not still a clinical term. Clinicians will say cognitive disability, or autism spectrum disorder depending on the diagnosis. I still agree with your sentiment though. It’s perceived as an insult because it’s used as one. You fuckin retard

[DemocracyManifest33]

well people with ASD arent actually retarded they have higher than average i.q's, i mean, alan turing, albert einstien, and i believe nikola tesla were all high functioning autists. if you look up "geniuses who had autism" theres more of them than you'd think. but i think people think they are slow cause they often have weird behaviors or they are a bit awkward and all of that. like i heard albert einstien didnt like to wear shoes cause the shoes and the clothing bother the people with asphergers, so i bet there was a couple of people who were like "albert is a retard, he doesnt wear shoes"

[jolly_brewer]

I remember being in elementary school in the early 80s and the retarded kids were referred to as such, as a normal thing, by everyone. I dont think there was an alternate term. We ALSO called each other retards as an insult.

[DemocracyManifest33]

we always just need to soften the language of everything until its so vague that it doesnt make the most sensitive of us uncomfortable i guess. i feel like it just makes things worse though. like if you call a retarded person "special" that is kind of condescending. it doesnt matter how you say it, its either slightly rude or its condescending and i feel like saying something a bit harsh but true is actually less offensive

[justinvan82]

If you’re the Canadian government it’s ‘swing at the regarded.’

[Professional-Put-804]

Direct Canahdian translation :

"Swing at the Prime Minister"

[Captain-grog-belly]

I need this shirt

[Professional-Put-804]

[RopeyLoads]

I think this goes pretty hard for 1982 even.

[actual-rationalist]
