So I get this request.....
« on: September 21, 2012, 02:02:00 PM »
I had a nurse from a local hospital call and requested a quote for some screen printed shirts.  No problem, I shoot her a quote.  Then we get down to the nitty gritty, what she wants on these shirts.  She had a couple of phrases, the name of the group, blah, blah, blah blah.  Then she tells me she would also like two hands printed on it.  Are you kidding me?  I can get in trouble for what I was thinking.  When I told my wife about it, she warned me not to be funny about it.  So I put it together, put the hands down low enough with the fingers more towards the belly.  My wife gave her final approval before I sent the artwork to the customer for their approval.  After it was sent we discussed it a little more, she thought the placement was good until I pointed out a little fact.  That little fact is if some woman with big saggers wore the shirt I would be in trouble.   :o  Oh well, I did what I could do.

Reminds me of an old joke about a recently widowed 85 year old woman whose husband of 60 years had passed away. She decided that life was not worth living without him & decided to end her life. She remembered that he kept a loaded pistol in his nightstand and being the considerate woman she was, she thought that a bullet thru the heart would be less of a mess than a headshot for whoever found her body. Doing her due diligence, she called her physician to inquire exactly where the heart was located on the female body - he told her that it was behind the left breast. The next mornind the local EMT's responded to a call; the dispatcher told them that an elderly lady had just shot herself in the left kneecap...

How about the same industry, different motto:

"We're #1 in #2"

We did some shirts for a seafood restaurant that had a mermaid on the front with the tagline "Shuck me, suck me, eat me raw." on them.  Yeah, tasteful.

I used to print for a pakmail. They had shirts that said "let me stuff your box".
I thought those were funny.
