    anyone else ever have someone try to buy the shirt of you'er back?

    Creepy people. Somone offered me $70 for a football jersy I was wearing. They actually expected my to take of my shirt and sell it to him on the spot.
    I think its about 12 years old, Packers Sterling Sharpe throwback jersy, its a cool shirt but not cool enough to try and strip it off a man at a pub.

    Anyone else have any similar situations?

    Yeah, a girl in college.
    I had a bowling shirt I use to wear,
    she always teased me that she was going to
    rip it off my back one of these days.
    On our last day of class I gave her the shirt
    and she loved it.

    Someone asked to buy my Pink Floyd pants. But I had others with me, so I guess it's reasonable.

    He just wanted your musky man scent.

    just to give you another perspective...

    I was in Billings, Montana spending the nite at a local hotel on my way across the country and left my purse in the restaurant I was in... I began running back to the hotel I was at and it was pouring rain and some guy was running after me... he saw I forgot it and came to return it... I saw his shirt... he was a marine and it was some kind of shirt I guess only they could receive... he refused to take money for it and just gave it to me but I bought him a few drinks for it later... it was a sweet shirt that went "missing" after my boyfriend did my laundry... ****er that he is

    I also tried to buy a dress offa girl once... she got really mean about it but I offered her $100 bucks for what musta cost $40... she refused to part with it ...I still want that dress... grrr

    And i'm currently in negotiations to buy a hoodie offa guy I know... its custom done and totally screams my name and I bloody well want it! arrrgh
    You smell that? That's the smell of spring, and I love it. You know what I love to do in spring? I love to come out into the woods, to walk amongst the budding trees, to smell and taste the hint of renewal that hovers in the air like a heady perfume, and to listen to the song of the birds who have returned from their long sojourn south. And bury the people I killed during the winter...

    I think it was $70 new,it is quite the sweet shirt. When you buy somthing at Lambeau field it is never cheap. I'm not a big sports gear gu but I am holding onto that one.

    I have an ancient Partisans (UK '82 punk band) t-shirt that I was once threatened, by a random guy, to get my ass kicked if I didn't give it to him. He never got the shirt but we did have a few beers together.

    While on a college trip a girl offered to buy the vintage Adidas t-shirt I was wearing. Ended up trading it to her for a pair of New York City tourist T-shirts. Found out years later it was Blair Butler from X-Play.


    Beware the beast, man, for he is the Devil's pawn. Alone among God's primates, he kills for sport or lust or greed. Yea, he will murder his brother to possess his brother's land. Let him not breed in great numbers, for he will make a desert of his home and yours. Shun him, drive him back into his jungle lair, for he is the harbinger of death.
