Apparently I missed the whole big stink over Abercrombie & Fitch and their pug t-shirt. They had a "humor" shirt that featured a crossed out pug and said "Say No to Pugs". Pug lovers everywhere rebelled. They even started a petition.

They don't have it on their site anymore, but there is one with a pug and a saxaphone. I don't get it.

  4. controversy sells t-shirts. It seems to be a marketing strategy of theirs. They got in trouble a while back for a racist shirt. A shirt depicting two Asian Laundrymen with slanty eyes and buck teeth and the slogan "two wongs make it white". There was a big uproar and not surprisingly the shirt sold out.

  5. I think the bug and the saxophone thing may be a drug reference? Looks like a big pipe to me.
