Transformers shirt gets jet ban


"Transformers shirt gets jet ban". The Sun.
(Why do mainstream media publications insist that headlines must be nigh unreadable?)

I'm sorry for a week full of making fun of people's insane phobias, but I just can't get over the surrealism of it all.

  1. In all fairness, the image on the t-shirt could have come to life and held a stewardess hostage. You never know what tricks the decepticons will use to terrorize the human race. For all we know the man wearing the shirt is not a man at all but is in fact a robot in disguise secretly plotting the deaths of those around him.

    You should really read more science fiction, Eo. I'd also recommend brushing up on your conspiracy theories. It isn't healthy to not be scared shitless in this modern world.

  2. "But then the guy told me to stop and said ‘you cannot get on the plane because there is a gun on your T-shirt’."

    A gun is a gun. Simple.

  3. Dear Sir,-

    when we compare your thumbnail photo and the posted photo we come to the conclusion that this could be the same person.

    Should you deny, more forensic investigation would be taken up.

  4. Nah, he is younger and slimmer than me. But not as handsome.

    TTL: I wonder where they'd draw the line? How about Bart Simpson holding a gun? A musket? A knife?

    Why vote when you have a gun? Erm... A shirt with a gun on it. They seem pretty threatened by it. I suppose if you start making demands they won't call your bluff.

  8. Puh-leeze, Eric! No Decepticon would stoop to impersonating an autobot, least of all their abhorred LEADER!
