That “Q” shirt looks so new - my guess he bought it the week before & was first time he ever wore it.

For good or ill, I was an adult by the time wearing slogans and advertisements on your clothing became a thing. I just refuse to do it.

I suppose it makes me seem strange.

I feel the same way.

Other than Levi/Wrangler tags on blue jeans or a small inconspicuous tag on a shirt I don’t buy anything branded. I am not someone’s bill board.

I do have some hats with sports team logos. Gifts

Nope. I refuse to wear any clothes with words on them.

Thank you for posting that. I think I was in college when people started wearing shirts with “Adidas” across the chest that they had PAID FOR. I was like, why should I pay to have a company’s logo on my chest. They should pay me! Or at least the shirts should have been gimmes, I would have been fine with that.

In 1973, I had a Shelter Records Egg on a t-shirt.  Way back then, it made me feel like a "Stranger in a Strange Land."
