Crazy T-Shirts

By Kathy Austin


The increasing fame of the T-shirts from its simple beginning has always been quite established on records. One may come across simple T-shirts which have prints on both the front and the backsides in addition to the different forms of T-shirts like the period shirts, fancy and trendy shirts, surfing T-shirts, funky and comic T-shirts among others.

T-shirts that are whacky and humorous got an overwhelming response from people and amused them and brought peels of laughter. Few chose to keep them in their mind while others just got erased from their memories. These T-shirts were designed with funny anecdotes and messages that ridiculed and imitated almost everyone without outraging them.

Then someone who was sure felt that distasteful things were in vogue and came up with the thought of writing all bizarre things on the T-shirts. Right from sporting maddening stuff to graphical representation with nasty stuff could be found on these T-shirts. The use of the 4-letter word was no longer considered lewd and became a trend setter. And quite astonishingly, it turned into a big rage. Crazy T-shirts soon became an obsession. Statements like "Bad Samaritans" sounded weird as it is used in connection with good things.

These T-shirts became such a huge obsession that if you would go to the T-shirt store you could find all different kinds of T-shirts that are exhibited right from the less bizarre ones to the real maddening ones. It could sometimes leave someone with the understanding of fashion completely astonished to know that beauty lies in the eyes of the onlooker. Just about anything could turn into a vogue and not just celebrity fashion.

Why are these T-shirts so much in vogue? Probably as one of the renowned French designer like Coco Chanel expressed that" The most courageous act is still to think for yourself. Aloud." And it goes without been skeptical that this type of T-shirt is a sign of someone who expresses his emotion aloud. It is not just about thinking aloud but the designer openly declares in this case. It is a unique creative talent though some of them may overlook it by finding it to be obscure. However, the fact remains that creativity itself requires an obscure mind.

Yet crazy T-shirts are here to stay amongst us and it would not be shocking to find almost everybody owning at least one which is slightly whacky. But stealthily, one may like to wear a more striking and a funnier one and could stay away from doing so due to the apprehension of causing outrage among others.

Gifting t-shirts is an easy way of showing your affection for a relative or a friend or even a casual acquaintance. It is easy to gift them a cool, a retro or a funny t-shirt. Certainly, crazy t-shirts also make great gifts for relatives and friends, who understand you well, but may not be appropriate to casual acquaintances. The milder ones may be more fitting than the ones at the other end of the scale.

Now, if you feel that purchasing a crazy t-shirt and wearing it is a second hand act, second hand in the sense that you are only reflecting some one else's courageous act of thinking aloud, then all you have to do is think out aloud for yourself and come up with something crazy to say. There is no dearth of subjects on this crazy God forsaken planet. Think of one, go online and get it made. Even easier just buy it online. Wear it and make a loud declaration.
