What does it mean?

about I'm A Noun!

Not a native English speaker... and very curious on the meaning of this shirt! I'm a noun? And why the life-saver style? Can someone explain it to me? :-)

–noun
1. any member of a class of words that are formally distinguished in many languages, as in English, typically by the plural and possessive endings and that can function as the main or only elements of subjects or objects, as cat, belief, writing, Ohio, darkness. Nouns are often thought of as referring to persons, places, things, states, or qualities.

I am a noun means you are a person, place, or thing. In this case a person.

THANKS!

I knew what a noun is, but I thought the word was meaning something else here... never before I heard this expression...

It makes sense, I guess I'm more a noun than an adjective!

I never heard the expression before until seeing this shirt, which is exactly what i come to Threadless for time and time again! Evade's the bomb for thinking it up, or killing the person who thought it up after stealing their idea. Either way, congrats!

errr...

the life saver style was because this shirt was launched during the Spring Broke Sale and the theme was the beach!!!

that's about it really.

I thought it might be a play on that "Be a verb" thing, because no matter how much you do, you are still a noun.
But then again, it might just be a cute tee.
