I get a lot of crap from family members because of this one t-shirt I've hung on to for about five years. They keep tossing it out and I keep fishing it out. The armpits are holey, as is the rest of the shirt now. And no matter how many times I wash it the thing still smells like BO. :p Tim Armstrong's face is also pretty stretched out due to some serious boobage. :rolleyes: Its not that I'm infatuated with the band (Rancid if you didn't guess it) like I used to be but its more about the memories I've made in it. I can't think of a bad thing happening to me when I've worn it. Anyone else have a shirt like this? :)

DD sounds decent. Slightly bigger than average.

I have a shirt that I have had when I was around 13 that says on the front "hungry dog eats little joey" and it has a cartoon drawing of a dog with a baby in it's mouth. I loved this shirt when I was a teenager because everyone called me little joey. Anyway I still have the shirt and will not part with it. I had a lot of good times in that shirt.

Well, you don't want to smell...then people could get a negative impression of you (like you don't take care of yourself), I suggest you make a real rad frame...and put the shirt in it. I know that may sound lame...but it actually can be pretty awesome looking if you do it right.

PEACE LOVE EMPATHY

I have a skate and destroy shirt that's about 10 years old, but it smells like flowers and honey dew drops.

That sounds pretty rad. Have you thought about making your shirt into a family heirloom? There's this little part of me that wants to share this shirt with my kids (when I pop a couple out). I really want to take it and a few other band shirts and make it into a quilt that can be added on to. I did something like it for a girl way back when her son was born. It was more of a baby blanket but I just don't think kids will understand or appreciate the value of something like that when they're so young (her kid spit up on it :[ ). Anyway! I noticed you had two adorable little munchkins and I thought I'd bring that up. :)

lol Your BO is very girly, your shirt maybe able to double as an air freshener. But seriously that's cool, I hope it sticks with you for many more years bro.

well i have a favorite belt? does that count? Its a studded belt i got at a swap meet for 7 bucks and it'd lasted me 6 years. Its being held together by duct tape, dental floss, and thread. There is old spray paint all over the studs and only one of them is missing. I'm wearing it right now :)

Fantabulous! My belts are always stolen..kudos for hanging onto yours. If something is dear to you why should it be worth any less than someone else's treasure?

I have a few shirts..they dont smell but they are falling apart. I just sew them up whenever I really need to. BUT, my FAVORITE thing is a pair of oldschool vans. A few of my friends have drawn all over them. They are ripped up, and there are holes worn in the soles from skating. They are TRASHED.....but I refuse to get rid of them. So I stole one of plastic shoe display things from Macys. And screwed it into the wall, and that's where they sit. IT'S RAD!!

You could probably seal your vans in something like clear casting resin to preserve them if you never plan on wearing them again.

I have a Clash shirt I got in May 1999, and I wear it every once in awhile, when I'm feeling in a "don't care what I look like" mood.

I have a pair of old skool Vans my mom bought me for my 21st Bday. They're only a few years old, but I wore the hell out of them. I can never get rid of them because I played CBGBs in them.

Bring forth the pictures!!


Okay I have three two are both pretty holey and falling apart at seams. They reside in the bottom of a shirt drawer and hardly see any use.

1) The Anti-Heros - You Are Here X with a 45 on the back and the gun and skull logo on the front (I got this from the band after Joe Winograd left the band permanently I guess around 1990 or so) Drawer shirt (I bought a new one with the same artwork when they reformed with friend in guitar taking Joe's place.

2) Clockwork Orange - The triangle film poster with Alex and the cane dagger coming out at you. Drawer shirt

3) Neon Christ - Pic with Randy jumping up and Kip (William) off to the side with his guitar. Apparently this is a super thin "booted" T that I got mail order years ago under the assumption it was legit old stock product or so I was told when I purchased it!

I throw out like 3-4 garbage bags of clothing like once a month, I have a serious addiction to clothing. So sadly, theres nothing i've clung to. Except a shirt I have from like middle school which still fits, so I'm down... It's just a random t-shirt with my name on it. And that never gets old. But yeah the boobs cause problems, i mean im not a DD just a D. haha and i got the pics.

I have a shirt that was my moms when she was in high school. Softest, most comfortable shirt ever. Can't wear it cause of a boobage problem too. D's just don't squeeze into smalls anymore :mad:

I've also had this wallet for 11 years, I lose it ALL the time and everytime I find it again, there's always atleast 20 bucks in it. No way in hell I'm getting rid of that!
