I’m allergic to glib. tee
I’m allergic to glib. — a glib response inspired by the style of the playwright Bertoldt Brecht that foregrounds the apparatus of glibness used as a counter offensive weapon. This is a 21st century technique derived from the of 20th century insult of introducing a landline interlocutor to your friend “click” and hanging up a phone rapidly terminating a conversation. Because of the way we now communicate, “snark” is the “word play of choice”. And many people have become “keyboard commandos and combatants”. Often a dismissive rejoinder is required to reply in as few characters as possible based on 21st century attention spans and mediums of choice like text or Twitter and Facebook. “I’m allergic to glib” is a wonderful way to terminate an electronic conversation while simultaneously dismissing the “snark-er”. Like most comebacks, ultimately, this will become overused (see speak to the hand); so, use it while it lasts. The good news is that if one uses and studies the writings of Bertoldt Brecht ; then, the only limit to creatively generating Brecht-ian conversation rejoinders is individual creativity and wit.

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 ".

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!
