money shot is the best thing thats ever happened to me.



and i would TOTALLY buy Barney malt liquor

Er...no they don't?



Threadless states that they market towards college-age kids. That's why everythings come in normal sizes and kids sizes are the minority?



Comparing Barney to Threadless is kind of an odd analogy, too...

meh, I dont like this shirt, I think its tasteless

and what mkes you think Threadless caters to young kids?



Yes, they print in kids sizes, but they aren't the ones with the credit card.



Thats like saying that baby food company's miss their demographic because they promote the nutritional value of the food. Babies don't care about nutrition!

I've got a barney bong, actually. It's FANTASTIC.

i think you've been miss-informed

i'd say that you are the one who is off the mark...

whoawhoawhoa....is your picture of a monkey flipping us off?



hypocrisy much?

i bought this shirt as soon as i saw it was printed. . .that's the only time i've ever instantly bought a shirt from here. . .

who said threadless was to cater young children?





have you not seen the types of blogs that are made here?



have you not ever listened to one of their podcasts? (actually they pulled the dirtiest one)

I wish this shirt came in kid's sizes. Perfect for xmas.

i've never listend to a podcast. . .i don't even know how to listen to them. . .???

Exactly the type of bonehead responses I expected. The same of type of people who think it's fine to talk on their cellphones during a movie, spit gum on the sidewalk, and blast their car stereos at 1am in the morning because their neighbors won't mind waking up.



You guys are clueless and classless. Wake-up, there are other people out in the world. And, while this tshirt doesn't offend me at all, I know that I wouldn't want to buy it for my kid of have them ask me in a store what it means or even start mimicing it with their own hands.



Geez...I guess I should just have no standards at all. And this website is looked at by many, many youngsters...get real.

It's just a shirt. Don't like it? Don't buy it.



The immature will act stupid about it, the snobs will put it down, and the mature will enjoy it -- in whatever form they all see fit.



End of blog.

It's just a finger pointing at an OK sign.



Geez you guys. I don't know what you're seeing.

lighten up

well did you notice they didn't print this one in kid sizes?

it's not crass, it's funny

How is it crass? I still just see someone pointing at an okay sign.

to the hooch .... okay one this doesnt come in kids sizes so unless you were buying nightgowns for your children you WOULDNT buy this fo ryour kids and secondly while a lot of younger kids do look at this site they arent resposible for keeping your children in check .. even amazon has adult products on it that any one can go an find. thirdly if I have to go and think about what every 80 year old biddy is going to think about my wardrobe Im not goign to go out ever again. you can only go so far in pleasing teh masses before you have to just go and do what you want. now im not saying that you should go out and have sex in front of an audience (although if thats your bag then .....) but still in teh end its a t-shirt and if some one is goign to be that offended by something as trivial as that then they need to stay inside cause theres much worse out there for all to see

As previously stated small sizes for kids are in the minority. Threadless is not exclusively for kids. Maybe you dont understand the kind of demographic these tees are aimed at, or maybe you should get your tees somewhere else. Make no mistake this particular tee will sell out fast.

I dunno about the shirt, but those douchers wearing em look familiar.

damn man...reading thehoch's responses to people here is like being yelled at by my mother when i used to eat a`snack before dinner and she'd catch me. It's simple- there are tees printed on this site made for EVERY kind of demographic, from goofy to intense, from chaotic to simple, from childish to "mature", whatever that truly means. I think this shirt is the epitome of the South Park method- whereas, most of the convos on that show are only as dirty as you make them, hence great personal experiments to inflict on the masses. I mean, "Chef's Salty Balls" contains no dirty words and is only as immature and juvenile as your mind is and how you take it, just like this shirt. It's an OK sign and a finger touching it. You have to decide what that means, and the classiness of which that is depicted speaks for itself. I think it's one of the most classy designs actually ever to grace this site. And BTW thehoch...have you even LOOKED at most of the designs on this site? Are the Faesthethic designs aimed at preschoolers? Plus, most of the shirts bought for children are aimed at being cute for the parents who buy it for them. I don't think there are many 5-year-olds trolling the site for their own garb to clothe themselves in, so that must mean most peoples re old enough to have a ten year old kid, hence being older themselves.

does no one else see this guys picture as a monkey flipping us off? id MUCH rather my kids see someone making the hand gestures on the shirt than middle fingers. Lets see, sex, something everyone does (except maybe the hoch) and is a peaceful loving act. Flipping someone off? hateful. hostile.





Go back to your redstate soapbox and get off these blogs.

So, uh... if you're problem with this is that parent shouldn't have the option of buying this for their kids... where are the purchasable kids sizes?

What type of response did you expect?



As everyone has said why would you think Threadless thinks this is a t-shirt for kids? It isnt in kids sizes, and until a few months ago Threadless didnt even makes shirts in kid sizes.



I think there are a lot of unsuitable things that people should be worried about kids finding on the internet, but a t-shirt with a finger pointing at an okay sign would be pretty low on the list. And if they already know what it means, so what? And if they ask, make something up.

You must be trolling, thehoch, and cleverly, otherwise you're frightfully immature and unwise for your age. You'd have to have some very naïve assumptions about children, youth, art, symbolism, humour, communication, marketing, parenting, t-shirt sizing and Threadless in order to actually believe what you're saying.



This troll would have been funnier at tshirthell.com. I give it an A-.

Hmmm, that's supposed be an umlaut over the "i" in naive. I have naive assumptions about what Threadless allows in their HTML I guess.

You just don't understand threadless (or much, evidently).



The same of type of people who think it's fine to talk on their cellphones during a movie, spit gum on the sidewalk, and blast their car stereos at 1am in the morning because their neighbors won't mind waking up. You guys are clueless and classless.



and you just became clueless and classless yourself with that sterotype.



This is a fair request, and I promise I will not judge any person only as a teenager. You will constantly remind yourself that some of my generation judges people by their race, their belief, or the color of their skin, and that this is no

more right than saying all teenagers are drunken dope-addicts or glue-sniffers.



You think its strange, that there's a way of how you looked, and how you act, and how you think pretend they're not the same as you.

TWEric, you kick ass man. Less than Jake happens to be my favorite band. I know, completely off topic but, whatever.



And to the threadstarter, the majority doesn't give a crap, according to your standards your icon is classless, and to top it all off, who gives a rat's ass??



Retard...

thehock, I was going to make some witty remark, but then I saw that your pic was a monkey flipping the bird, so I will leave everyone with this irony. =)

If there was a penis going into a vagina on this shirt, I'd understand your concern.

eat a large portion of my ass, you cocky bastard

First of all, no one ever said Threadless was aimed toward children, in fact as previously stated, they didn't start selling children's shirts until just a few months ago. Second, theres a lot more to worry about than this shirt. Children have easier access to stores in the mall such as American Eagle with their gaudy "hidden sexual meaning" overpriced t-shirts, or even Spencer's which has bascially turned into a sex store, than to this website. Your stereotypical responses to other people have lead me to believe your the immature one and you need to open your eyes to more important things. Children will always have access to things they shouldn't unless our society gets their act together, which won't happen.

You are 36 years old, get over it.

I'm 16 and I'm buying it,

things changed since you were a kid.

Threadless should print what they want.

Exactly the type of bonehead responses I expected. The same of type of people who think it's fine to talk on their cellphones during a movie, spit gum on the sidewalk, and blast their car stereos at 1am in the morning because their neighbors won't mind waking up.



You guys are clueless and classless.



Umm... Yeah... Sure...



Look, your argument is founded on fallacy: Threadless is not a site geared for children. Anything else you have to say in an argument based on incorrect factual information will be an illogical argument at best. Go back and start over.



If what you want to be saying is that the design is crass regardless of what age group may be buying it or wearing it, then that's a different story. But then make that your argument. The fact is that Threadless isn't selling this to nine-year-old kids -- it doesn't come in their fucking size!



In short, you're a tool.

why not blog about GOATSE?

it's just as crude, if not more so.



oh and GIMME MY FRISBEE BACK!



-k.

wtf does crass mean? and yeah, have u seen goatse? anyways, I always saw this shirt as a reference to that game that kids played where if you made the circle out of your thumb and pointer finger and someone saw it, they have to put their finger in it. it is just some weird game that I played in like 9th grade, so i dont think it was vulgar or anything

You're right. A non-vulgar display of the sexual act is absolutely disgusting.

GOATSE!!!!!!!! TUBGIRL!!!!!! MEAT SPIN!!!!!! MUD FALL!!!!!!







Now how's that for crass?

I've never seen mud fall!



How bad is it?

im not gonna buy this shirt because its just not my style. but there is no point complaining about it when so many other love it. its a joke. if you dont like it dont buy it.



i think threadless has a right to print whatever they want. and i've never seen nor heard of any 9 year olds ever wearing threadless. i think the youngest we have here is like 12/13-ish. i think they are old enough for a shirt like this.

i meant to say that there are young kids wearing threadless, but the people in the blogs arent that young. the younger kids are getting their shirts from the parents/aunts/uncles etc on this site and this shirt wont be worn by kids due to the sizes not being there - which has already been pointed out...

TASTELESS? It's only tasteless if you know what it means, and even then if you're that sensitive to a visual innuendo you need to grow the hell up.



If I saw this when I was 5 I wouldn't know what the hell it meant and as soon as asked somebody knowledgable it wouldn't mean anything to me anyways.



Sometimes older people get confused about what they think is appropriate for children when in fact most kids don't get most of what adults do or say or display anyways.



This is a great shirt, design-wise, and as soon as I get the money I'm definitely going to buy it. Maybe I'll wear it and walk around the nearest Elementary School, who knows.

For those who are offended by this shirt it means "You might want to take the stick out of your bum".

I'm sorry? Nine year olds? I didn't know this was printed on a kids shirt....





This site caters to those with credit cards, bud.

barney's blueberry flavored vodka

baby bop extra wides

i can see it now

im not going to buy it either. it's just not my thing. but i know plenty of people who would really like it. more power to them. if you don't like the shirt, fine, don't buy it. as long as the people behind threadless feel comfortable putting their name on this design, then there's no problem with it being printed.

If your 9 year old has his own credit card and is on the internet buying this shirt, you have problems.



Seriously, this shirt isn't offered in children's sizes, not to mention the fact that an adult would have to purchase it for them. What was your arguement again?

How about bringing this up with customer service instead of the bloggers if you want a serious response?

Every argument on here is lame. My monkey isn't a t-shirt that is worn around for kids to see...totally seperate argument.



I know this shirt isn't for kids to wear, but if you had a 6 year old child, and they were in a store, or just walking down the street, and they started to put fuck their hand with their other hand, and thought it was funny and kept doing it and doing it, over and over again...it wouldn't be cool.



Kids mimic everything and I think this shirt crosses the line. If all you on here who think it's cool to wear and I am full of shit, then I DARE you to wear it to work for all to see.



If you are not fired or asked to change, then you either sell soap door to door or your boss is as clueless as you.



WHO IS UP FOR THE ONE DAY CHALLENGE???? Put your money where your mouth is you fine gentleman and gentlewomen.
