Walking through the high street at 3pm today, I saw a young man with this written on his T-shirt:

Tell your tits to stop staring at me

AIBU to ask you whether you find this:

  1. funny


  1. grim


or something else?

I suspect the last person he had sex with was his hand. Ignore.

Boring and unimaginative.

Yeah, might as well wear one with "I am a bit of a tosser" on it and have done.

It would raise a smile if I saw it in a shop (same with the 'Read this whilst I check out your tits' one), but I can't understand why you'd want to buy one?

Surely after wearing it for more than...5 minutes..it would get a bit boring?

My reaction was one of taken aback surprise.

I also find the sentiment conveyed a bit aggressive if I'm honest.

I wonder what possesses men to don this type of garb. What's the point? It's hardly going to make him popular with the girls. To impress his mates? Is it fashionable? Is it supposed to be funny? Does he want to shock people?

Am a bit Confused

Sad and boring. Speaks of a man who has very rarely had the opportunity to see a real live pair of "tits". Probably lives with his mum?

Sardine I don't think most people wear tshirts to make wider existential statements. He probably just looked at in a shop, sniggered a bit, bought it, and threw it on today because it was clean.

Bad taste, absolutely. But then my female, feminist friend who has a PhD once bought me a tshirt that said, right over the breasts, 'If only my brain were this big'.

Go figure.

Eeeeewww what kind of people would allow a 12 year old to wear that?

I could sort of see it if he was out with a group of mates going for a drink, in a cheery sort of way.

This bloke was by himself at 3pm in the shopping centre and looked deeply unfriendly.

It was a bit odd.

It's sad and the blow job one is disgusting. On atwelve year old? Shock My eldest son is 12 and no way on earth would I buy him that, or allow him to keep it if he got it himself/it was given to him. Straight in the bin!

I'd think he was a bit of a moron but I wouldn't be in the least bit offended. Can't bear slogan t shirts. Might as well wear one that says 'My t shirt has a sense of humour so I don't have to!!!' Just piss off mate. Bet you have kooky posters on your walls and eat crisps for breakfast.

Where I used to teach a man used to pick his son up quite regularly with a t shirt on that had an arrow pointing up with the slogan 'the man' and an arrow pointing down with the slogan 'the legend.' I always thought it was a bit odd picking up his nursery aged child in that, particularly as he was such a gentle soul, and not the type at all that you might expect to like that sort of thing.
