East Village tee
An area in Lower Manhattan, boxed in between East Houston and 14th Street and Avenue A and Broadway, where a proliferation of bars exist, at least 10 movie theaters, major bookstores, like St. Mark's Bookshop and The Strand Bookstore, performance venues like St. Mark's Church; where in the past it was affordable for impoverished artists to live and engage socially. The remarkable history of the East Village, includes residents like Allen Ginsberg, William S. Burroughs, Miguel Pinero, LeRoi Jones/Amiri Baraka, Charlie Parker, Emma Goldman, Lenny Bruce, Willem DeKooning, Jean Michel Basquiat, Keith Haring, David Wojnarowicz, Robert Mapplethorpe, Iggy Pop, Patti Smith, Debbie Harry, original punker Richard Hell, authors like Arthur Nersesian and Richard Perez. For many years, it no longer remains affordable for the starving artist; unless that artist is the son or daughter of a banker or real estate magnate. "Trust Fund Babies" are often seen populating the neighborhood, pretending to be poor and fashionably down and out. Regardless of its pretensions, the East Village remains a stronghold for youth culture, regenerating itself generation after generation; this in spite of the fact that many of its landmarks -- like CBGB, the birthplace of punk rock -- are history. St. Mark's Place and Avenue A and the surrounding blocks retain a distinct character and personality, inviting wanabees and whatnots, twenty-nothings and thirty-zeroes to slum, which has always been true anyway: fakery has always been part of bohemia. But that's okay. Youth and folly go together like ham and eggs.

Customer Reviews
I always get so many compliments when I wear this (my favorite) shirt. I have been able to give out my phone number to lots of nice old men and my parents think it's great that I have so many nice mentors grooming me into a nice young boy who is willing to "follow the rules ".

Great shirt. Great service. Shopify doesn’t track the shipment accurately though. However, when I reached out to Urban Dictionary customer service, they were able to help me.

Love this shirt so much
I love this t-shirt that says morbussy. It allows me to show off both my love for Morbius and the fact that I get no Morbussy.
This shirt feels great, perfect fit too.
Great looking t-shirt. Good quality. Printing looks good.
Cool I didn’t order anything I just have a lot of free time and not a lot of hobbies
Fun and soft.
Good stuff! Although, I do have a sneaking suspicion that this is cursed. You see, whenever i dawn this top-teir, soft, stylish shirt - I proceed to pass out within 46 seconds. The mere act of making contact with the material insues the process of this countdown starting. If I do not quit contact, i will lose conciousness the exact moment the countown hits 0. And when I regain clarity, I find myself in a bathtub - never mine, but a bathtub nevertheless. In the bathtub, there is always various colours of hairdye. I then have to go back home, shirt stained with dye. Very fashionable though! 10/10
Smooth transaction and nice product, shipping was quick!
