A T-Shirt With a Message















This is a lot of message for one small T-shirt. Pretty funny. It even has a title:

Everything that
1975
Irritates us

and then goes on:

Everything that

Irritates us

About Others

Can Lead us

To a Better

Understanding

Of Ourselves



Don't Push my Buttons

I don't know, is this funny? It sort of cracks me up. I mean it sort suggests that you choose the button you like best rather then the coffee:

Please Push Your Favorite Button
