Title: Robby's t-shirts
Post by RogueUK on Jan 26^th, 2005, 6:25pm

LOL...possibly the most random concept for a thread EVER...but what can I say, I'm intrigued...

Robby always seems to be wearing t-shirts with seemingly inexplicable slogans on them. They're probably not inexplicable if you understand them, but I don't understand them...

What was the 'I'm a healthwalker' thing, for a start?

And THIS one...what are those zebra doing?! lol...and what's with the slogan? Ok, nice pun, but other than that I'm lost...

And what's TSOL stand for? I know it has writing beneath it but it's too small to read...

Lol am I the only one who wonders these things? *fears that she might be*

I think the zebra are just running...

And he has said in the past that he buys some of his crazy shirts at Goodwill and thrift store. (I'm pretty sure he can afford to shop elsewhere �:D )

**EDIT**
There's the one shirt "Imperial Fireworks Tulsa Oklahoma" that he used to wear that is an actual place. �He just found it at a thrift store and wore it. �Some time later, he was interviewed by someone from Tulsa who asked him why he had that shirt. �He was amused to find out Imperial Fireworks was an actual store in Tulsa.

(And I don't even want to think about how I remember stuff like that...)

And a Google search says TSOL stands for True Sounds of Liberty, a band.

Hey there Emily �;D Yeah, they are cool �:D I just wondered if they had any particular significance or if he just likes to confuse people with random t-shirt slogans LOL

nmf016 - Thanks for the TSOL thing. Google search...why didn't I think of that? �::) Now I have to go and find out who that band are, lol. If Robby likes them they're probably good...

Haha, funny story about the Tulsa t-shirt. As for how you remembered that...I guess it's the same way that I know the names of Robby's cats but can't remember a thing about the lecture I attended on Monday �::) �;)

I think it's cool that he shops in thrift stores. Somehow I couldn't see Robby being a Gucci man or anything like that...LOL.

I like the one he wore for his Good Charamel T@TS in September of 2004. It said:

"Gimme some CHOCOLATE
and nobody gets hurt!"

Well, the zebra shirt says something like "have you herd of the YO ranch?" and if there's one thing I learned from watching The Simple Life, the YO is a cattle farm somewhere in the south...thanks to Paris and Nicole for enlightening me on that one :D

Yeah, Robby's T-shirts rock! My fave is the one with one of the seven dwarves on it, can't remember which one it is though!! If I can find a link i'll post one, I hope you guys know which one I mean?

I think the "Healthwalker" one is part of a new initiative (or at least there's one in this country) to get people more active and walk for their health. That's what I took it to mean, anyway...:P

I have a pic of that...my friend met him that day and has a pic with him. �I will have to figure out how to post it and I will. �;D

Perhaps this will work? �I cropped my friend out of it. Sorry so huge, I don't know how to resize it!!

Heh, awesome pic ;) Thanks for that, howGOOdamI :D

I want that t-shirt. Choooooocolate...*drools*

We have better chocolate than you guys in America though. Hershey's isn't very nice...Cadbury's is the way to go!

And COOL hat! I want that too. Haha. I just want to raid his possessions, basically. T-shirts, hats, bass picks *whistles*

(this is slightly pre-emptive, but...shut up Saz... :P )
