Living in a major metropolitan area grants me plenty of people-watching. For every piece of eye candy, however, there’s some eye vegetables. We’re talking lima beans here. My latest target: false advertising. Men, unless you’ve been to the gym more often (and more recently) than the Krispy Kreme, don’t wear the “Porn Star” logo. Ladies, don’t wear shirts that read “Hottie” or “Luscious” unless you are really befitting such adjectives. (-and for the woman I saw on the metro, the shirt with “not everything in Iowa is flat” printed across the chest was designed for ladies who, erm, are not.) Especially annoying are the track pants (bad enough) with slogans written on the bum. (Is that the only way to get Americans to read?)
If you people can’t police your fashion decisions yourselves, it’s only a matter of time before there are laws. Do you want that? I didn’t think so. So please, do us all a favor: put it away.

I would love a Porn Star t-shirt. Instead, FatMans and I have to content ourselves with gay men t-shirt from FCUK.

Yes, we have gay shirts from our non-gay non-tryst. Bait, now you’ve got me thinking about Krispy Kreme (in vain), and about the greatest porn-star name ever, Kristy Kremes.

Speaking of good names, here’s one of a club for, erm, manly men:
The White Swallow
I’m not making this up.
Hell, that beats out The Manhole by a foot — er, mile.
