The Most Amazing T-shirt Ever!
This 3-Wolf Moon T-shirt is currently THE #1 BEST-SELLING APPAREL on Amazon, largely because of its snarky customer reviews.
When did the Internet become so snarky? I blame the gays. And when did the word snarky become such a popular adjective to use? I had never even heard of it until a couple years ago. Again, I blame the gays for its overabundance in modern discourse. As of this posting there are 841 snarky reviews for this shirt. I swear I didn't write any of them! Really!
The small New Hampshire company that produces the shirt was blindsided by all the sudden purchases, selling around 1,000 a day. I repeat, it's THE #1 BEST-SELLING APPAREL on Amazon. The shirt also has its own Facebook page -- of course!
Interestingly, Amazon tells me that 'Customers Who Viewed This Item Also Viewed' the following:
The Amazon page for Joe the Plumber's book, in which he is "Fighting for the American Dream," is in itself a wonder to behold. The customer review tags include such (snarky!) gems as "american idiot," "bird cage liner," "i pitty the foo," "anti-welfare welfare recipient," and my favorite, "a good place to stash your weed."
Again, not me!
Anyway, I can't wait to wear my new shirt.

I am so stealing that "stash your weed" line.

My favorite one involved the soul being torn from the body and cast into heaven by a jealous god

Well if snarky comments about people’s clothing are driving up retail sales, then I’ve been doing more than my part to get the economy back on its feet. I wonder if I could get stimulus program money for that. :-p (you'd think I'd learn my lesson, wouldn't you? :-p
