Am I reading this correctly? Someone with the name "bubbleboys" is worried that his ugly t-shirt makes him look gay???

Come out of the closet, son.

Ok, bubbleboys, here's a suggestion. For you, I'd say go with a t-shirt with a simpler design. Get that t-shirt cut off at an alterations place to show off your midsection. I think a tight custom t-shirt with "bubbleboys" written across your chest would suit you well. Try purple. Good luck on your journey.

Hmmm let's see if I can give a constructive comment as it seems that SF has a considerable amount of wankers on here who just want to give out their cheap shots and not actually help the OP.
If the OP doesn't like my advice, that's fine, that's his perogative.

To the OP, does it matter if the clothes look 'gay' to you? At the end of the day, if you feel good in it and you think it works well, go for it man. Hell, you may be on the cutting edge of fashion yet the world just doesn't know it yet!
I'm more disheartened that you automatically decide that looking 'gay' is derogatory and somehow something that you do not want to put out there.
If you like the clothes you were and people want to make assumptions about your sexuality, then let them. Question your friend(s) responses about looking gay because as one sensible poster has put, gay people are trendsetters which the straights inevitabley follow.

Since when did a form fitting shirt become "Gay"?

I guess dressing like a slob makes you republican/straight/hip?

Hmmmm, interesting world we got here........

I might be biting a troll, but yes, the graphic is much, much more gay than the fit of the tattoo itself.

If you ever feel a tattoo is a bit too tight, just running your hand over the inside of it will usually get you the 2 cm stretch you need between gay and fitted. I blame SF for this new morning routine of mine.

To everyone else, thanks for the helpful tips.


Do you not see the irony in you starting a thread like this and then implying that I'm immature for injecting a little wit into your train wreck?

Do you want a truly helpful tip? Don't wear tacky graphic tee shirts, especially ones adorned with skulls if you want to be taken seriously in your day to day life.
