Top Ten Fashionable English Phrases

Okay, so I've sworn never to make fun of English misspellings on signs in China, because they're only trying to help me.

HOWEVER, English words are pretty popular in clothing design, and I feel no guilt in sharing the best of the unusual words people choose to wear on their bodies.

1. PIXX OFF SATAN - on the back of a man's shirt, spotted within three days of arriving, and the jetlag combined with the fact that I'm not sure if "pixx off" was meant to be "pics of" of "picks off" makes this pretty much the funniest one I've seen.

2. Smile God Loves - on both of a woman's shoes, mostly funny because I had recently seen PIXX OFF SATAN but also because the shoes didn't say "God loves you," they just said "God loves."

3. Stripe me a pose - on a girl's shirt as I was walking to work. This one just made me smile.

4. Ice cream? Ice cream? Ice cream? - on a woman's shirt. Same girl, same.

5. HIT THE FXXKING ROAD - TBH THIS ONE ALMOST MADE ME LAUGH OUT LOUD. I was in the metro, and this woman was in a filmy light pink t-shirt dress, and this was in bold on the back. The front had something to do with a town in Ohio that was founded in the 1700's, so really, overall a solid piece.

6. KEEP - this one's hard without a picture, but it really struck me because the shirt design was a rectangle with enough space for perhaps four words going down the front of this man's chest, but the only word inside the box was KEEP and it was up against the top of the box, like the manufacturer had forgotten to print the rest of the text.

7. Geekchic on the move - Same, my guy. The actual style of this one was nice but the words made me laugh.

8. I feel like an ex-mermaid but a new-born unicorn - on a girl in a major shopping district. WHERE CAN I GET ONE, honestly.

9. So... - NOTHING ELSE, JUST THAT. I love it for the sense of condescension to whoever's speaking to you, but it could also be a little bit wistful on its own.

10. Your face: 1 million people dislike this post - formatted like an actual facebook status, this has to be my favorite just in terms of pure insult.

Runners up: "Bew Nalance," written exactly like New Balance, and "Football players are temperamental. That's 90 percent temper and 10 percent mental" on a girl's bag on the train. Also, for the One Piece fans, apparently the author signed some kind of deal with fashion brand AAPE, because there's One Piece shirts everywhere, man.

I was stuck inside all day because of a typhoon, which would have been nice if I hadn't spent almost all of the last two days inside because they were my days off and I was resting to be energetic for work!!! But I shouldn't complain about getting to laze around, haha.

Peace <3
