kaygigi this, but am i snob for thinking there is something inherently wrong with being able to buy an ac/dc back in black t-shirt - with the "artistic"-aging process so that some of the letters showing signs of "peeling" at target?
i mean, yes, i'm fully aware such shirts have long been availalbe at hot topic and the ilk, and that's a separate discussion all-together, sort of.
target is... well, target. the bastion of all that is the wholesome mid-west with the hipness that is the rest of the country. i suppose middle america, is where manya'n original ac/dc fan is now working in the business world as The (wo)Man. in theory then, this would entitle target to sell such items to that audience even more so than said hot topic who is selling the shirts to kids who weren't even born when back in black first came out. hell, i was too young to appreciate it when it first came out.
but still.
maybe it's just my im-bedded target hatin' coming out.
i don't know. but, still, i'm just saying. being able to buy a michael graves's teapot and an ac/dc t-shirt in the same venture just violates my sense of morality. which, is yes, quite skewy. which i suppose, then, should just be the moral of this post.
