Would you find this funny?

[Marseeya]

Be honest... would you laugh at me, or would you laugh with me?

This girl I know from school (early 20s, athletic, very attractive and physically fit) was wearing a white tee shirt that had written on it in gold sparkly letters, "It's hard work to look this good."

She's going through a rough time and I just wanted to make her smile, so I asked her where she got it. She told me, and I asked her what size it came it, because I wanted to get one. Mind you, I'm 39 years old and wear a 2X tee shirt. She was appalled!

Alrighty then. So, a few days later I was in another class and was telling a few of my friends about it, trying to get a chuckle out of them, and this girl sitting in front of us (another attractive, fit girl) turned around and shook her head in disgust like I was a complete idiot.

Well, after telling DH about it, we both decided we wanted to get shirts that say that on them! He's a big guy too -- about 6' tall and 240 pounds.

We just want to mock them a little bit because we think it's funny! I can't believe there are people who are so full of themselves and take themselves so seriously that they can't see the humor in it!

Honestly, if you saw my DH and me -- pooh sized people -- walking around at WDW wearing those shirts, what would you think?

I honestly would laugh with you. Then again DH and I have a really strange sense of humor.

I'd laugh with you!

My brother loves wearing funny/ironic shirts. My favorite one says "I got this t-shirt for my girlfriend...Best trade I ever made". I love shirts like that.

I'd think you were 2 people who were full of fun and people I'd like to know! Definitely would laugh *with* you and not at you.

 

[disneymom3]

I love it! LOVE it! If I saw you at WDW, I would give you a big smile and maybe even a high five. I love that you are comfortable enough with yourself to pulll it off, too.

You go girl--don't let the skinny chicks get you down!

 

[MsDisney23]

Laughing with you!

Couldn't have said it better.

I would absolutely love to see you guys in those T-shirts (and would find them pretty smug on a slim, athletic-looking person).

Honestly, based on what you described, I would think it was funny if you wore the shirt and would take it as your having a sense of humor. If I saw the shirt on a teenager who thought she looked good (regardless of whether she did or not) I wouln't think it was funny...especially if it was not covering everything or very tight

As for the young women who didn't think your comments were funny, they need to get over themselves

Gotta have a sense of humor.

I would laugh with you.

I am 6'7" and about 285 pounds. There is a T-shirt that I want to get so bad, but my DW just threw a fit. It says...."I beat Anorexia". I swear I'm gonna get this and wear it when we go shopping together.

 

[mbw12]

I would be laughing with you!!!

 

[luvdzne]

I would want to know how you got Dh to wear it (my dh would never go along with me, and would think I was crazy ). Then I would think it was funny. So, yep, I'd be laughing with you. I love people with a sence of humor!

To the OP--I am 5'3 and currently about 200lbs(more info than some wanted I know)--I wouldn't be laughing w/you---because I'd be standing right next to you w/my matching shirt!!!!---If you find a way of making it give me a holla because I WANT ONE!!!!

Okay, maybe a little insensitive so I guess I see where your wife is coming from, but I think it is darn funny.

I also like the one about trading the girlfriend for the shirt

 

[amburger]

haha. I think that's great. I would think that was funny and would laugh with you.

 

[kristen821]

I think it is very funny!

 

[Marseeya]

HEHEHE! Well, that settles it, I'm going to have to make them up or get them for DH and me! I think that girl got hers at Aeropostale (sp?), and I'm fairly certain their sizes don't go above medium, right?

Hey, 4GBLC, do you want me to come talk to your wife? Maybe I can get her on board with the ironic tee shirt club. Or should we call it the "Fatty Tee" club???

Ooh, I just thought of another bonus. This will surely mortify my kids!
