Looney-Tunes-Shirt-People


This introductory week will focus on weird people who try and promote a 'cute' image by making themselves either oddly/disturbingly childlike or campy and kitschy.

What the hell is wrong with people who wear looney tunes t-shirts?! You already know who they are. You've seen them, overweight at six-flags, panting underneath the misters to combat their profuse sweating, chomping down funnel cake or meat on a stick and drinking bucket-sized containers of cola. They insult common decency with their over-sized clothing and poor personal hygiene.

They're cut from the same cloth as people who wear "I'm with Stupid =>" shirts.
GROSS

I've never owned a looney tunes t-shirt because my celebration of the franchise did not go beyond Saturday mornings as a child. If I were to wear one now it would be a form of regression. I can only foresee a regression of that sort to be possible if I were to be hit by a large vehicle and reduced a childlike state. For 'fully functional' adults wearing looney-tunes apparel, their behaviour doesn't come from a desire to recapture a childlike sense of wonder but instead stems from their hope to come off as 'cute'.

They flock to places like six flags because they're poor...well boo hoo. I'm sorry you can't take your kids to Disney land or Branson or whatever other gross place you dream of. Maybe if you looked more presentable you could land a better job, get yourself a better wardrobe.


There is also the person who thinks they can pull off the looney tunes shirt as a joke. It's not funny. It's just as trashy as when anyone else wears it. Take it off. You might think, "Wow, isn't this a funny I'm making.... This is just as funny/ironic as when i wear my old, ratty dare anti-drug shirt when I'm obviously way counter-cultural." Just put on some clothes like a normal person. Accept the fact that you don't have a good sense of humor and stop trying to make up for it with 'ironic' t-shirts.

I haven't been able to find proper pictures of these trashy people. If anyone out there comes across one or has the chance to snap a shot, send it along and I'll slap it up.
