English T-shirts in Japan #4

Terror T-shirtHere’s the latest installment in my English T-shirts in Japan series. This one is modelled by a ten-year-old boy in one of my English classes. I really don’t know what the message is here. Do you? Does anybody?

What were the designers thinking? In fact, what was the mother thinking when she bought this T-shirt? Perhaps this is how it happened…

Designer: Okay, I’ll draw a scary dragon and add some random English phrases from Fox News. Perfect!

Retailer: Nice! A scary dragon with lots of English. We’ll sell these no problem!

Mother: Great! A scary dragon and some English! My son will love it!

Son: Woah! A mad dragon and some wicked cool graffiti!

Me: Hey, nice dragon. What does that say? Hang on, let me see…

Eye-catching fashion with fear plucking at one’s heart. Horror of potential terrorist acts involving biological weapons.
