The Musings Of An Opinionated Sod [Help Me Grow!]


Name That T-Shirt …

Filed under: Comment

So following on from my post about Age’s ‘200 facts‘ … Marcus decided to write a few things that were ‘special’ about him.

1 I have a favourite T-Shirt
2 I’m wearing it today
3 I may loose my job for wearing my T-Shirt today in the office
4 But I don’t care.

Now as a man who loves dodgy t-shirts, I immediately asked him to send me a picture of the ‘offending article’ – and while it was pretty much what I expected, I thought I’d test your powers of people-reading-deduction and see if anyone can guess the exact phrase that will result in Marcus being bollocked by his HR department later today.

Comment by fredrik sarnblad

No, Fred.

Comment by Marcus

The ‘C’ word?

Comment by Age

No Age. Way off.

Comment by Marcus

“My boss is an idiot” [I realise this may not be the best place for me to write those exact words in that particular order, but we all know what it’s about]

Comment by fredrik sarnblad

No Fred, you going slightly cold again.

Comment by Marcus

“Fuck Germany!”

Comment by fredrik sarnblad

hahaha. No. No way.

Comment by Marcus

Fred … I am ever-so-glad you’re having a nice time doing this little game, but would you mind awfully FINISHING YOUR FUCKING BACARDI DOCUMENT!

Thank you.

Comment by Marcus

“Fuck You” [still playing the guessing game – but that’s a timely guess]

Comment by fredrik sarnblad

Sir Sorrell rocks

Comment by NP

That’s on my t-shirt NP.

Comment by Rob

You have no idea how far off that is NP (and that is a massive clue).

Comment by Marcus

“Fuck Accountants!”

Comment by fredrik sarnblad

No Fred. Nope.

Comment by Marcus

You do realise that photo makes you look like you have abit of a mullet starting!

With that in mind, does your t-shirt say …

“Fuck Hair Grooming”

Comment by Rob

hahaha, fuck you boldy.

Comment by Marcus

I think you meant BALDY because being called BOLDY is actual a compliment, ha!

Bless you and your typing dyslexia!

Comment by Rob

bugger.

Comment by Marcus

“All HR People are Wankers”

Comment by Rob Mortimer

Comment by Marcus

Capitalism Sux?

Comment by George

politically speaking you are on the right track there George.

Comment by Marcus

George you fucking smartarse 🙂

Comment by Rob

CCCP?

Comment by Rob Mortimer

OK here’s a round up:

1. Fred was VERY close at one point.
2. NP was WAY out.
3. George is politically in the right place
4. Mr. M isn’t.

Comment by Marcus

Clue?

Something to do with your boss or the word fuck?

Comment by Rob Mortimer

if it’s not either FUCK, FUCK OFF or FCUK, i’ll be very upset marcus.

Comment by lauren

Oh come on Mortimer. There are so many clues! I’ve just given you 4!

Here are 3 more:

1. Lauren should have seen this T-Shirt about 12 years ago.

2. It has nothing to do with MY boss (think “won’t get fooled again”)

3. There are two words on the T-Shirt.

No more clues.

Comment by Marcus

Lauren, you won’t be disappointed.

Comment by Marcus

Fuck work?
Fuck Management?
Fuck Bosses?
Fuck Authority?

Comment by Rob Mortimer

Which one Mr M?

Comment by Marcus

Excuse me have you all forgotten the rules?

Any swearing has to be supported with a ‘ 🙂 ‘ so that my lovely Mum isn’t too offended, though what a 🙂 does to alieviate the rudeness is beyond me.

Comment by Rob

It could be a Pennywise Fuck Authority one, but I don’t recall you being a fan of theirs…

Sorry Mr C and Mrs C: 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂

Comment by Rob Mortimer

Ah, the joys of google Mortimer!

So which one you going for? Choose wisely.

Comment by Marcus

Joys of google?
I dont get…

See, the Who reference implies anti-authority. So I’ll (probably incorrectly) go for that one.

Comment by Rob Mortimer

Mortimer wins!!!

Although I should point out that my “Fuck Authority” T-Shirt is not from Pennywise. But an original “Slime” T-Shirt.

Ah, the good old says of punk. When I had hair. And it was green. And red. And blue.

Comment by Marcus

I meant: Ah, the good old days of punk.

Comment by Marcus

You just gained 25 cool points in my eyes Marcus.

Hurrah for me! 😉

Comment by Rob Mortimer

well done Opi 🙂

Comment by lauren

Does it say something like Fuck Authority… that’s the sort of t shirt you would wear 😉

Comment by Charles Frith

Comment by Charles Frith

Comment by Marcus
