Yes, I absolutely find the "read a t-shirt" fad to be quite annoying. It really is the same as bumper stickers isn't it?
EX:
"Vote for Pedro", "I am a slut", "Jail bait", "porn star" (parents are you monitoring what your kids buy and wear?), "If you can read this then you are too close", etc etc etc.... The list of asinine and inane readables goes on and on and on......

I actually have had this conversation before at another forum, but as the parent of a little girl it is nearly impossible to find t-shirts for little girls these days (she is 7) that don't have ridiculous and sometimes (like pigglet's example) even disturbing messages on them. Usually referring to the way that girls "should act."
What part of Princess don't you understand? is one that stands out in my mind at the moment. For the life of me, I don't understand why anyone would want to dress their child in these things.
Yes, it is irksome and annoying...bordering on outrageous even.
