You know how these things happen i expect when nike and reebok came out
they where a little known company but they eventually became really
/fashionable?/ whose to say whering these t-shirts that no one has seen
before won't start a new fashion of wearing tshirts with the name Amiga
on thenm instead of Nike or reebok, (i suppose tshirts with god, guns
and guts. is geeky too huh?).
Only those who follow the trends of the world who fail to break the
bonds of the worlds expectations have the fear of being seen as a geek
because they wear an amiga or any other tshirt, only those who are truly
the mindless souless people who make up the meat and potatoes of the
capitalist zombie world we live in.
Mind you those guys who wear red dwarf t-shirts there sad ;)
