Have you ever worn an "unlucky" T-shirt, one that gets you into trouble?

[Danny-Boy]

Many years ago I used to work at a beer-festival up in Olympia (GBBF) and staff would be given (cos we were volunteers) free t-shirts, often with brewery logos.

One I got about five years ago from Shpherd Neame is bright red with Spitfire on the front. And on the back, a bit contoversially it has "No Fokker Comes close". I think at the time Sheps were criticised for continuing to stir up WW2 anti-German feelings.

Anyway I found every time I wore this shirt, I got into confrontations. So i stopped wearing it, except in winter as an ersatz vest. But it still seemed to have that effect of antagonising people, even though they couldn't actually see it.

I wore it yesterday, with reluctance because all my others needed a wash or weren't dry yet. Result, a slanging match with a rather prim lady in a market garden ffs...is it cursed? Or do I project with it an aggressive manner?

Where's Uncle S when you need him?

My old Rage Against The Machine 'f*** You I Won't Do What You Tell Me' sweatshirt didn't go down very well in Birmingham Central Library (if ever)...

I have an Overkill "f*** You" T-Shirt back in the late 80's, had many brushes with the Law over that shirt.

My dear nan used to take exception to my clash 'straight to hell' t-shirt as it had the word hell on it & she was pretty god fearing.

I used to have one I brought from that weird t-shirt shop that used to be along Western Rd that simply read "I love porn - I masturbate". I often used to wear it under a jumper but a couple of times, forgot I had it on underneath when I took the jumper off in a cafe or pub and could never remember why people were squinting and staring open-mouthed at my chest afterwards.

And the first time I put it in the wash basket (again, without really thinking) my mum picked it up and said "I guessed as much"

I was best man for a friend and he inadvertently wore a t-shirt with a devil on the back for the wedding rehearsal. His faux-pas only became apparent when he took off his jumper due to the heat. A team effort managed to avert the attention of the vicar and the jumper was restored.

Well if you will do it in your underwear...I did.

I bought a blinding BNWOT Iron Maiden t-shirt at a boot sale and had it on near my abode, when a woman's dog, who she was walking in my vicinity, decided to sink it's teeth into the hem!(obviously more of a Judas Priest fan!) She's piped up, 'Oooooh! She's a bit frisky today...' and smiled as the dog finally let go of my new prized possession! I was thinking, 'Yeah, it will be fu*king frisky when I dropkick it over the roof of my block!...'

I wore this t-shirt to church last week and a few were upset.

That's quite a nice cock, to be fair. Smooth and that.

I'd imagine you'd be a fair judge

My old "If it ain't STIFF it ain't worth a f***" T shirt used to turn a few heads in the late 70s. I remember having to explain that it was actually a record label but people still weren't convinced

 

[¡Cereal Killer!]

I've never had any problems wearing my "f*** off wankers! The British are coming" shirt with the works "f*** Off" on the back. It is a punk band shirt but cannot remember the name of the band (or remember where I last saw said shirt)

Best head turning shirt I saw was by the Clock Tower, a young (attractive) woman wearing a white t shirt with a picture of breasts

 

[Jello]

used to wear one of these but only to indie nights or similar so usually avoided any conflict. Don't think my mum was too happy when she washed it but my dad thought it was funny.

Would that be a RATM, well known 'anarchist and anti-capitalism' band, merchandise type sweatshirt
