mrflash818@MostlyHarmless But, but, but! I have T-shirts for Debian, SCALE, Linux, and such! It's a moral imperative to wear them!
Ángela Stella MatutinaThey're not products, but political causes! /s
Xerz 💗@MostlyHarmless been thinking about this as a Spaniard ever since I was a child
nowadays it’s not even advertising, it’s like it’s part of the design itself, people will buy fakes just to have the same logo anyway
Yep. A design element. Just as any meaningful colors or symbols outside their context used for aesthetics, to cause a reaction or to blend in.
Cyber Yuki@MostlyHarmless Always spot-on.
punIssuer@MostlyHarmless #altText4you Calvin and Hobbes cartoon. Calvin and Hobbes are on a walk, talking.
Calvin, touching his striped shirt: I wish my shirt had a logo or a product on it.
He spreads his arms: A good shirt turns the wearer into a walking corporate billboard!
Hobbes looks expressions.
Calvin puts his hands in front of him, as he's describing his vision: It says to the world, "My identity is so wrapped up in what I buy that I paid the company to advertise its products!"
They continue to walk.
Hobbes: You'd admit that?
Calvin: Oh sure! Endorsing products is the American way to express individuality.

Bruce HeerssenIt hurts because it's true.
atapi ❤️@MostlyHarmless what does it say if my shirts are for shit that is obsolete and not even for sale anymore
tallship@MostlyHarmless My personal fav was the sort of goldenrod colored Colt 45 Malt Liquor T-shirt back in elementary school.
Spicoli is wearing one in the final scene of 'Fast Times at Ridgemont High'.

JamesTDG@MostlyHarmless that only works if they bother to actually use a decent printing method, I have so many corporate branded apparel where the design has faded so much that it's no longer even a damn billboard
