The 12 Days of T-Shirts / Day 1: Tuscan Serenade

I’m not sure I’ve ever felt so seen.

I love this shirt so much.

I imagine the person who designed it going on to an amazingly successful full life — Nobel-Prize-winning scientist or somesuch — and still knows in their heart that this shirt will always be their greatest accomplishment.

Description: Tuscan Raider from the original Star Wars hoisting Lloyd Dobbler’s boom box over its head in homage to the iconic “In Your Eyes” closing scene from the Cameron Crowe-directed 80’s classic Say Anything. 

It clicks on so many levels.

For starters, the juxtaposition of the Tuscan Raider’s Gaffi Stick for the boom box? Stop it. Wearing Lloyd’s coat? Get the f*ck out of here. Goddamn landspeeder replacing young John Cusack’s 1976 Chevy Malibu? Punch me in the face already.

Full disclosure I’m on V2 for this shirt.  

Wore the first till it completely faded, which Lloyd’s love for Diane will never do. 

My only regret? That I only have one torso.  

Will I get a third version? 

I don’t know, but I know that I don’t know.
