Novel-T has launched a line of baseball shirts with the names of famous authors. Their co-creator says, "The shirts are selling very well. Not 'Going Rogue' well, but more like 'a popular literary novel translated from the French' well." [Mediabistro]

Product reviews for this kitsch shirt are now an Internet Thing. Writes one reviewer, "You don't put this shirt on your torso you put it on your soul."

T-Shits (Part 2)

Tracie — Mon, 16 Feb 2009 13:30:00 EST

A T-shirt that reads "I Beat It Like Chris Brown" is available for sale. (Related: we're available for pitchfork and torch wielding!)

This tee might actually be more offensive than the "Rihanna Deserved It" top that Cafe Press eventually removed from its site: not only does it make fun of the situation in a not-at-all-clever way (it didn't cross those comedic geniuses' minds to print it on a wife-beater?), it also positions domestic violence as something to brag about.

16 Sexist Sarah Palin Shirts That'll Probably Piss You Off

Sarah Palin's policies suck. And though some of of Roe v. Wade talk is just a carrot in front of the horse to lure in voters, many are still uncomfortable with the idea of Palin being "a heartbeat" away from the presidency. In my opinion, she isn't a very logical person, what with the Creationism, her views on the environment, and ~~forcing~~ endorsing the marriage of a 17-year-old. But I'm also uncomfortable with the sexism surrounding her candidacy, much of which is coming from her own supporters! ("The Hottest Governor From The Coldest State," anyone?) There are a number of idiotic and offensive T-shirts being sold right now, and they piss me off, not just because they are disgusting, but because they make me want to defend the woman. After the jump, a collection of the grossest Palin streetwear.

The pros:

The antis:

And just plain weird:

Most of these were found at CafePress, or Zazzle, one was found at Votefordem, and we saw a few others in a post on Feministing.

An Australian politician is cautioning women...

An Australian politician is cautioning women against the dangers of sexy t-shirt slogans. Independent MP Bob Such told the state parliament during a discussion on rape reform legislation, "Some of these young women, they might think it's fun to put that message on but I don't think it helps the situation to be encouraging people out there who don't need much encouragement to do what they shouldn't do." Such then added, "What clothing you wear or don't wear, none of that justifies any form of sexual assault." Uh, glad he "clarified"! [ABC Australia]

Another Crappy T-shirt

Following Beyonce and Gwen Stefani's lead, Perez Hilton has launched his own line of merchandise http://www.merchdirect.net/PerezHilton. If you haven't gotten enough of his not-so-fabulous face, you can now wear his visage when you purchase one of the tees from his new line of clothes. It couldn't have come at a better time for the Gossip Queen who's being sued by several paparazzi agencies for $7.5 million dollars.
