I was musing the other day over t-shirt humour, after noticing an "I'm with stupid" t-shirt. The wearer was walking along with a friend but the arrow of the shirt was pointing the opposite side, thus negating the humour and making the wearer look stupid instead.
I have also seen techno-t-shirts that
can display a message programmed into a small chip hidden somewhere upon the wearer.
I would like to meld these two ideas, and add a short-range tracking device. Basically the tracking device would be concealed about the wearers friend; loved-one or foe. The display would be an arrow that points in the direction of the tracking device, so the message on the t-shirt is kept accurate.
I'm With Stupid, ala Tindale

Those folk should just admit they've missed a bargain and ink a big letter "X" over the "with" on their (one) shirt. Duh! |
|
|
does it have a hidden button? |
|
|
so stupid is in the crotch area? |

//so stupid is in the crotch area?//
It depends where you hide the transmitter. |
|
|
[po] It's not called the dumb stick for nothing. |
|
|
If you needed a /tracking device/ then you wouldn't be WITH stupid. Stupid would be trying to get away from you for calling him/her stupid and wanting the whole world to know it and see him/her.(or is the shirt stupid?) |
|
|
//[po] It's not called the dumb stick for nothing// not a gear stick then? |
|
|
Everybody: "Hit me with your rhythm stick, das ist gut, c'est fantastique!" |
|
|
"Hit me! Hit me! Hit meeee!" |
|
|
Just place an arrow on the shirt with a rivet. Pivot by hand if they move. Much easier to bake. |

Alternate solution:
<--- I'm handcuffed to stupid. |
|
|
//the arrow of the shirt was pointing the opposite side, thus negating the humour // Negating the humour? I don't think so. |
|
|
So, how do you wear a T shirt in an ironic way? |
|
|
//I wear mine unironed// HA!
(Welcome back [ss], you were missed. Hope all was/is well.) |
|
|
They should come with a arrow that spins by hand, then you could take pot-luck as to whom is the idiot. |
|
|
I have an "I'm with stupid" t-shirt. Got it in Topman. |
|
|
How about a low-tech solution:
Simply print (you know with dyes
and inks) on the t-shirt's fabric |
|
|
I'M WITH STUPID <-- OR --> |
|
|
Or just remove the arrow. |
|
|
//Welcome back [ss], you were missed. Hope all was/is well// Thanks [bliss], all has been well. I have just been very busy. Hope you're good too. |
|
|
and change "with" to "outside". |
|
|
Maybe, what we need, is "I'm with Stupid" on pants.... |
|
|
Email, ss, it still works. I shall repost on home page. |
