Local Millennial Cannot Tell If Most Recent T-Shirt Purchase Was Ironic

Barriah Barey, a sophomore at Clark University, recently experienced a bit of an identity crisis when purchasing a shirt at Clark’s very own Thrift Store. Clad in jeans and a sweatshirt with Karl Marx’s face on it, Barey was previously comfortable in the thrift store, idly perusing the racks of clothing. However, upon finding the blue stained T-shirt reading: “I have a phD (pretty huge dick),” Barey was struck with a sudden spout of anxiety.

“If I wear it ironically am I denying that my dick is huge? Because it is, I measured it. I promise,” Barey claimed frantically, rocking back and forth on the floor by the register.

Barey reportedly had been looking for a fun tee to wear to a party hosted by Socialist Alternative. His criteria according to the Facebook event was attire from a thrift store, a goodwill, or an Urban Outfitters with the tag cut off.

Sources have told the Freudian Slip staff that there is no evidence of the size of Barey’s wang doodle but he will definitely be read as a “douchey baseball boy” if seen wearing the shirt unironically.

Barey told reporters that, in his attempts to find an outfit, he was suddenly overjoyed by the concept of a T-shirt that screamed, “my self worth is not defined by what I am wearing, but I am wittier and more original than you.” Unfortunately, the series of events have led Barey to decide to skip the party altogether until he figures himself out.

Hipster Quote of the Week:

The message at the end of “The Tortoise and the Hare” isn’t that ‘slow and steady wins the race’, but actually a well-remembered quote from the 1977 Disney classic “A New Hope”: “Great kid! Don’t get cocky”. Bullshit that the hare was gonna lose that race if he didn’t choose to stop for a nap and a snack and whatever else he did. Bullshit that the tortoise was going to catch up in any capacity if the hare didn’t slow down for him. Maybe that platitude makes sense, but definitely not in this situation.

 

A race is a sheer contest of speed. No other skills go into that. The tortoise and the hare aren’t making miniature wooden horses and getting judged on the craftsmanship of their products alongside their finish time; they are moving from one point to another. In no universe does slow and steady win that race. Slow and steady wins no races, except for races where the point is to go as slow as possible. Even in cases where slow and steady could be considered a possible alternative to fast, such as the aforementioned miniature-wooden-horse-making competition, someone who can do similar quality work at a much faster pace still wins that competition.

 

Slow and steady does not win the race. Not being too full of yourself does.."
