I have just seen the best t-shirt to person combination of all time.  Living in China you see some strange shirts with words put together that make no sense or the word has multiple meanings and the designer used the wrong one.

This shirt was in a different category.  This category is the ’shirts that read perfectly well but totally do not suite the wearer’ category.  For example: Seeing a construction worker with a t-shirt imprinted with the Dolce & Gabbana emblem.

I was making the interchange at Zhongshan Park, waiting for the train to pick me up.  I looked over to see a young Chinese woman, who weighed 70lbs soaking wet, wearing a skin tight, cropped sleeved, brown t-shirt.  On the front of the shirt in big, pink, sparkle encrusted letters it read, “MEAN JOE GREENE”.

She noticed that I was standing sheepishly at the entrance to the station, so I went over to her and handed her my Coca-Cola.  She selfishly downed the entire thing in one chug.  I stared back blankly at her in dismay.  She saw that I was broken hearted and knew she had to make it up to me.  She tore off the shirt as I began to walk away, shouted “Hey kid… Catch.” tossed the number 75 jersey to me and carried on her way.

OK, so that last part didn’t really happen and if it did, her knowledge of Mean Joe Greene Superbowl commercials would have dropped the rating of T-shirt to person combination down a few pegs, although we would have had to create a whole new category.Mean Joe Greene Superbowl Coke Commercial
