"What's with clothing retailers lately?"

Can the garmentos please think a little before releasing garbage like this?

First there was Zara with their nazi fixation: http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2014-08-27/zara-apologizes-for-upsetting-shoppers-with-t-shirt.html
Previously in hot water for: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-482476/Zara-bosses-forced-withdraw-Swastika-handbags-shelves.html

Now Urban Outfitters, pimping a "vintage" Kent State sweatshirt. Trendy bloodstains ya got there. http://abcnews.go.com/Lifestyle/urban-outfitters-apologizes-insensitive-kent-state-sweatshirt-sale/story?id=25514185

Who would wear this crap?!

So yeah, I guess even bad publicity is still publicity.

I'm still a little bit "Off Planet".

What? Can't give the Moonie an innocent Smoochie?

That was a "forbidden" innocent smoochie. Besides, Mr. Off-Planet, we can't be letting aliens cut in on our territory, or we'll have to build a wall around the earth. And the moon(ie) too, can't be letting aliens smooch the moon(ie) either.

What I don't get is women's choices in footwear. John Rocker's girlfriend (far right - I'll learn her name later) knows that she'll be stranded on a desolate tropical beach, with little food, no matches, no shelter, and she knows it will be for 30+ days. And she knows she will be expected to take part in many athletic competitions. And she chooses platform sandals that are too small for her.


And are those Cowboy boots on the woman second from the left? The fashion kind? Not the working kind?

Makes those deck shoes on that guy at the far left almost seem like a sensible choice.

But wait, this is the line for Big Brother. I don't see Julie, why is there all this dirt.

(pardon the lack of question marks but that key stopped working on my laptop)



I should be watched....closely.

On related news, this was sold in Philippine stores and has since been pulled out after triggering a media firestorm.
