When I'm in Europe, it always amazes me to see t-shirts with sayings on them in English, but with misspellings and/or incorrect grammar.
If you're manufacturing t-shirts, can't you at least go to the trouble of checking the English to make sure it's correct? If only to make sure your customers don't look like fools.
I was in a pizza place in Spain -- the waitress was wearing a t-shirt with a saying in English. I asked he if she knew what the saying meant. She said she did not. I forget what the saying was, but it was (at least) written correctly. But it did get me thinking -- if you're gonna wear a t-shirt that says something in a foreign language, wouldn't at least want to know what it says (BEFORE you decide to buy/wear it)?!?
Things that make you go "Hhmmmm."
