The "shocker" on a t-shirt
I've been looking at getting a shirt from a website (http://www.punogre.com) and was considering picking up the one with a "shocker" logo on it. Now between me and my friends a shirt like this would go over fine, but I am concerned that members of the general public might be offended or "turned off." To get a better sense of others' reactions I turn to the members of this board; think a guy can pull it off?

From Urban Dictionary :
The act of inserting 2 fingers into the vaginal opening (normally the index and middle fingers), and 1 into the anus (normally the "pinky" finger). This is usually performed when she is laying back, in the "deep thrust" postion (see "deep thrust" for more hardcore info). Commonly described a numerous number of ways, e. g. 2 in the pink, 1 in the stink; two in the grass one in the ass; two in the slut one in the butt; two in the koot, one in the boot; goin to town with one in the brown; and many more, this method of sexual gratification is one sought out by people of all levels. But only grand masters, like the Big Johnson have perfected it. ------------------- Hmmm you learn something new every day.... Had no idea.... Guess it's an age thing...

its a shirt if people can't handle it thats their problem not yours. I have been seeing alot of shirts with alternative logos on em. I think they are great. "Von Slut" , "Von Bitch" " silly faggot dicks are for chixs"
no offense intended for these. just shirts i have seen. so the "shocker" seems rather tame in comparison.

I say get it if you want. Sure, there might be a handful of people who are offended by it, but you have the right to express yourself regardless. There are people out there who are still offended that women wear pants now, so really, who cares what other people think.

While I wouldn't care if I saw it, and I'm sure your friends might think it's funny, I think by wearing it in public you're saying, "Hello, I am unprofessional and don't care if I offend anybody." Sure it might be fun to wear it to parties or concerts, but anywhere else seems immature, in my opinion. Of course that particular shirt tons of people wouldn't even "get" anyway. It's not as bad as the other day when I saw a guy wearing a black shirt with white font saying "Fuck you you fuckin' fuck". It didn't bother me... but it smacked of residual teenage rebellion/angst.

I think you should get it but just be careful where you wear it. Parties, sure, supermarket or going shopping, maybe not.
If someone recognizes what it is then they're not too innocent themselves, and you can wear it because it's free speech and who cares what they think, that's fine. I certainly would never confront someone for wearing a shirt like that at the supermarket, but I would think that they could have a bit more tact. A party is a totally different matter. I've got a Bad Religion t-shirt that I love but I very rarely wear it. For those that don't know that Bad Religion is a band, the image of a cross with a big X-sort of thing through it can be highly offensive. I like to wear what I want but I do have a bit of respect for people that don't have a choice but to see that shirt. |

I don't think it's even likely to cause a problem wearing it in any casual situation. The people who are likely to be offended are probably those who don't get what it means anyway. Besides, how often do you really take notice of a small graphic on the front of a person's shirt?
May not be prime wear when you're hitting on a girl though, couse I guess that all depends.

That's been standard repetoire for years. I'm also in favor of the "Live Long and Prosper", which is what I suspect they're calling the Spocker.
The only thing even slightly offensive about the shirt is that it is one finger away from "May you die a virgin". I guess my point is that the folks who would be offended by it won't get it anyway.

If questioned, you could just pass it off as something else entirely -- Say it's the W for Westside, big-up yourself, like my main man Ali G, ah-ight? Booyakasha!

The only people that shouldn't be exposed to terminology such as "two in the pink, one in the stink" are children. But any kid would probly be too young to know what it means. I would keep it in the presence of adults only, who cares if they get pissed off? Heck, I've seen worse things.

Must be a U.S thing, as I've never heard of 2 in the pink one in the stink!
It did make me laugh though, especially 2 in the butt one in the slut & 2 in the bush 1 in the tush... lol I was even going to buy one as well (considering what a cheap laugh it would have been explaining it to friends that asked) but they only do an XL in yellow and I've already got enough grey to cover an elephant... pity!

Hell I'd get it while you can. One day you will be married and your wife will either not let you wear that kind of stuff or she will see to it that it gets "lost in the dryer".
Other than that, I think others are accurate when they say that anyone who would be offended by it wouldn't know what the fuck it was. Now if it said on it anywhere two in the pink one in the stink, then your options of where to wear it may decrease somewhat... |
