    I think I was actually in the army with this major. Or several of them just like him.

    For $178 (at today’s rate) it should be Colonel Fuckup.

    It would be so much funnier if it was PRIVATE COCKANDBALLS

    I do like the vector print, too. I wonger if the shirt breaks up into smaller and smaller pieces every time you wash it?
