A great t-shirt day
Yesterday was a great day for the shirt. This shirt said, "I spread rumors." It is one of the guiltier guilty pleasures, and I got my first glare from someone! I was walking into Kresge and this girl walking out looked at my shirt, rolled her eyes and glared at me. I was pretty excited.
Then I went to the Cubs game, and realized how effective the shirts are when I actually go out instead of staying in my apartment doing work. I got the chance to tell a lot of friends I don't see very often about them, and also had my first conversation about them with a stranger. I met a lovely woman in the bathroom at Wrigley field, and our conversation went a little something like this:
Cubs fan: You spread rumors?! That's bad.
Me: Actually, I don't...or I try not to. This month I'm wearing different people's guilty pleasures. What's yours?
CF: Let me think about that. I don't spread rumors but I like to listen.
We walk into the stalls, side by side.
CF: I know what my guilty pleasure is! SEX!
Me: Oh, just sex?
CF: NO, lots of SEX!
Me: What's a lot of sex?
CF: No, a lot of sex, WITH MYSELF!
Woman in random stall: Honey, you have to have toys, do you have toys?!
CF: I have four, one in every color.
Me: (laughs uncontrollably)
That's the truth kids, no rumors here. Be looking forward to the shirt.
