"funny" slogan totally unsuitable for kids' wear

PatriciaBateman · 11/08/2018 15:51

Am I getting (unreasonably) conservative in my advancing age, or is this in no way suitable for children? Includes age bracket 5 - 6! Shock

I wonder if whoever put it up just didn't look at it properly - but then why would kids' sizes be being made in the first place?

Disgraceful.

SneakyGremlins · 11/08/2018 15:52

Holy fuck!

I hope it's just that someone wasn't wearing glasses..

MadMags · 11/08/2018 15:54

Jesus fucking Christ. What is wrong with people?

Rufustheyawningreindeer · 11/08/2018 15:54

Good god!!

Thats dreadful!!

AnnieAnoniMoose · 11/08/2018 15:55

😳

Errr...

WTAF.

How the actual hell did that get as far as production, let alone sales?

Oysterbabe · 11/08/2018 15:58

I would judge an adult harshly for wearing that. I would like to believe that no one would buy that in a child's size.

BendydickCuminsnatch · 11/08/2018 15:59

Foul

NinetySixer · 11/08/2018 16:00

It looks like a cheap Asian knock off. The image probably doesn’t translate as they thought. These things will be made in their thousands cheaply.

Hangingaroundtheportal · 11/08/2018 16:01

Whaaaaaaaa?!

Ihopeyourcakeisshit · 11/08/2018 16:04

My mushy pants would be hooked high at an frustrating that, let alone a child.

Ihopeyourcakeisshit · 11/08/2018 16:06

Oh bloody auto correct.
That would be judgy pants, hoiked high at an adult wearing that, let alone a child.Blush

UpstartCrow · 11/08/2018 16:14

That's grim.

FluorescentAdolescent · 11/08/2018 16:18

I can see why someone may think that it might be made abroad where perhaps they don't realise that it's offensive...but it's quite obvious. Those are spread legs and the word 'love' is similar to 'loving.'

Chocolatepeanuts · 11/08/2018 16:18

catgirl1976 · 11/08/2018 16:24

YANBU and it is grim but agree with the PP about it being produced in a non-english speaking country. DSIL is Chinese and DB has had to stop her buying a number of grimly sloganed t shirts before. Of course the image is also grim. I guess they didn't look at it. Surely no one would buy that?

bellinisurge · 11/08/2018 16:31

Jesus. That's terrible.

pieceofpurplesky · 11/08/2018 16:39

It's terrible but I think mushy pants wins predictive text change of the day Grin

maggycool · 11/08/2018 16:39
Shock
ZanyMobster · 11/08/2018 16:56

Wow, I usually open these threads thinking that the OP will be complaining about something ridiculous on a tshirt but I am actually Shock seriously awful for anyone let alone a child

Cyclingpast · 11/08/2018 17:04

Please report it to e-bay.

buttermilkwaffles · 11/08/2018 17:10

2 sold, one in December 2015 and 1 in November 2017, so it's been on sale for nearly 3 years and nobody has complained? Seller is UK based and a UK Ltd company (Unique Car Mats (UK) LTD ), so must be aware of what they are selling, regardless of where they sourced it from?

YANBU. Totally, completely inappropriate.
No responsible parent would buy their DC this.
Disgusting product.
Sick minded designer, probably a paedo.

ScreamingValenta · 11/08/2018 17:15

They sell hundreds of different versions, so they're probably only printed on demand.

IAmTheWifeOfMaoTseTung · 11/08/2018 17:44

Yes they’ll be print on demand. Nobody has sat down and thought “that would be a great Tshirt to sell to six year olds”. They’ve just done a bunch of designs and made them all available in every combo.
