“You have hang-ups”

Someone stopped me on the street in Hardwick:

Person:  You have hang-ups.

JHM:  I … I’m sorry — what?

Person:  Hang-ups.

JHM:  {blink. blink.}

Person:  Your shirt.

JHM:  {looks at shirt}  Oh, that’s clever.  Sorry I didn’t laugh the first time.

JHM, internally:  WTF?!

I was wearing this shirt that I designed.  If you are interested in ordering one — this is just info, not a sales pitch — I increased the image size by two clicks and it still printed accurately in XXL.  I think it looks much better that way, but Zazzle wouldn’t let me post the product with an oversized image:

    Either that, or to show your support for abortion.

    Bingo, Karina!  I designed it as a pro-choice statement.  And almost no one gets it — or at least mentions getting it.  But I’m leaning towards the former, judging by the confusion when I explain that it’s “a pro-choice shirt”.

    I didn’t really get “hang-ups” from the shirt at all. I probably would’ve looked like an idiot trying to figure it out. :|

    No, Karina, I’m with you.  Nor would I expect any normal person to.  Which is why I considered it WTF?! enough to post here.
