This shirt here to be exact:
I bought it to wear at Ultra in the hopes of maybe meeting some fellow TAs. Anyways, I put it on to see how it fit and my wife starts dying laughing. I'm like WTF is so funny? She says it says OMGWTFBBQ on the back. I had no idea. Its very light and hardly visible so when I was buying the shirt, I didn't even notice this. I think its funny personally but my question is where and how did the OMGWTFBBQ thing start? Inside joke? I did some searching, but really couldn't find anything. |

It's not originating from TA - though I don't know where either. It's just a play on the way people speak in abbreviations on the net. |

OMGWTFBBQ comes from Somethingawful.com, as far as I know :) |

I bought a TA shirt a few years ago, washed it once and it shrunk two sizes. |

there will be a TA meetup HERE
and the omgwtfbbq, is a way of making fun of 1337ness of the internet. omg, and wtf, and lol, are so overused that somebody came up with the addon bbq as a way to humorously make fun of the 1337ness. |

That's not a shirt I sell - please send me the link where you bought this.
Thanks. |

to be honest, the TA shirts for sale on cafe-express are bland, boring, plain old t-shirts. a nice vintage black shirt with the TA logo emblazened across the chest would be nice. on the back would be, idunno. |

The shirts that will be sold on the site in the summer will be on American Apparel shirts - cafepress will be there as an alternative option - but AA shirts fit MUCH better - those are the only TA ones I wear. |
