Oh! Please, please, please?
I just found what I want for my holiday present. How fucking cool is this???
That's right, when you stand in front of the mirror...
Someone buy me one of these. Please? Or better yet, get me two: one that says "Love" on it forwards, and one that says "Hate" forwards, so I can switch off.
And look, they also make it for men (or women) in black.

That is pretty cool. But if you aren't by a mirror, everyone is going to wonder why you are walking around advertising "hate."

Neil: And the problem with that is? :-P
Actually, they make both versions. So you can have "Love" be the word on the shirt, if you want, with "Hate" as the mirror image.

That fuckin' rocks.
It needs to be LOVE on one side and HATE on the other.

This would do wonders for my self-esteem. Every time I walked by a mirror, love would turn into hate. PERFECT!

Very cool. Does anyone remember a band named Angel many years ago? Their logo could be read right side up, or upside down...
Y'know, I love the internet. Just skipped out for a second and found an Angel Fan Club with the logo at the top of the screen.

At the risk of dating myself (well, not dating in the relationship since, although I am a cheap date, but dating as in getting old...oh, never mind) this reminds me of a commercial that was a regular on the old Lawrence Welk show.
It was targeted to the bubbly old codgers who made up La Welk's fan club and was for a natural laxative called Serutan. Their tagline was, "Use Serutan because it's natures spelled backwards."
I just read what I wrote...I guess constipated old people aren't as funny as I thought.

Karl Elvis: Yeah, that would be smart. Though I tend to hate shirts with designs on both sides. I like either front or back, but not both.
It would make a rockin' tattoo.
Retropolitan: Or, hate would turn into love. Which wouldn't be bad at all.
Art: Nope, never heard of them, but glad if I could bring back a good any-which-way-you-turn it memory.
Poobah: Yeah, in this day and age, it's the opposite of constipation that gets the laughs (I'm thinking Dumb and Dumber, etc. here).
What are "natures?" (heh) And how does natures help constipation? That's the lamest branding campaign I've ever heard. Shouldn't they have at least named itd "Larutan?" It might actually not BE natural, but they wouldn't be claiming that, just saying it's natural spelled backwards. But at least the implication is clear there...
Hm, Lawrence Welk...were you watching that in reruns, or original shows?
Haden: Cider??? Get tae fuck, ye doss cunt. Buy us a proper whiskey or it's no photos fer ye.
That or a Babycham. Ha ha.

Somehow it seems to me "love" should come in a full range of colors, but "hate" should be white or red writing on black.
I don't much like hate, and I think love should have all the fun.

I hate to say this, but it's all original shows for the Poobah. I'm older than dirt you know. Just ask that kid Moses. He'll vouch for me.

That is too damn cool. I'm transfixed!
I want.

Cherrie: Well, I will invent one that says "love" both forward and in the mirror image. How's that? My banner photo is called "all is full of love" if that makes you feel better. :)
Poobah: Funny, your font doesn't *look* old. I remember being really tiny and going to see my grandfather on the weekend and he'd be watching Lawrence Welk, but I think they were reruns on PBS. I remember he called him "the bubble man." It was the only way I'd sit through the show, which I thought was terribly boring...he'd convince me to keep me waiting for the bubbles. In this way, I have a fondness for old Lawrence...any reference to him reminds me of my grandfather.
Amber: Hm, should I email your SO? Give him a little nudge?
