Whilst I’m on the theme of t-shirts, what’s with people wearing shirts with governmental bureau abbreviations on them? It’s not like anyone is going to believe you’re actually an employee of the FBI, CIA, DEA or SWAT - you’re a scrawny kid who’s still in school.

Further more - those stupid t-shirts which play on the abbreviations to communicate a cool and slightly controversial message. I’ve seen a few abbreviations for F.B.I which make are really cringe-worthy, but a quick Google around reveals the magnitude of this modern day catastrophe:

• Farts Burps Insomnia - this one is just plain shit, it doesn’t make any sense, lacks any humour and draws no relationship between the three terms.
• Full Blooded Italian - it makes sense at least, but what’s the association between The FBI and Italy? None.
• Full Blooded Irish - as above, but doesn’t work as well.
• Female Body Inspector - this is the first one I ever saw, it’s not bad, but the chances of a spotty 12 year old kid being able to inspect anything other than the contents of their own trousers is pretty unlikely. Maybe it’s supposed to be jokey & sarcastic - which could make it funny.
• Fabulous Beautiful Intelligent - shit. Lacks punctuation and missing a conjunction.
• Funky Baby Inside - eh? You’re advertising that you are pregnant with a baby who is heavily into Disco & Funk? How would you even know that…

I’ve also seen another one as I was walking through the city which has to be by far the worst:

• Fashion Boys Institute

Serious. That was on a shirt.

Googling around I’ve also found a few shirts for sale which let you go around the words “SECRET SERVICE” on your chest - pretty cool. I may well have to get me one of those.
