The spectacular rise of t-shirt is now well acknowledged and this rapid growth was due the Navy which started the landslide by the issue of a 'T' shaped, short sleeved undergarment without collars for the use of its sailors. Subsequently when the icons of the film industry, icons like Marlon Brando and James Dean showed up on the silver screen clad in these shirts, the attractiveness of these shirts skyrocketed and just about every one wanted to be seen in them. In today's slang, they were considered to be cool! Its popularity soared in leaps and bounds aided by the progress in the quality of the fabric used in their manufacture and in the advances in the printing techniques involved.

There is a saying that every piece of clothing says something about the wearer, but none says as much as what a funny t-shirt does. These shirts can be mildly to extremely funny, they can be totally absurd, funnily outrageous and offensive without being overtly so. The sphere of influence of these t-shirts is so wide that it can be bounded only by the limits of the designers imagination.

These t-shirts have been used extensively in the field of politics. It was during his 1948 Presidential crusade, that one such t-shirt with the message "Dew-IT with Dewey" printed on it was used by the then Governor of New Your, Thomas E. Dewey.

People in every walk of life have been the subject of ridicule, and there isn't a topic on earth that has not been scoffed at on the t-shirt in some amusing form or another at one time or another. Lawyers, doctors, politicians, drinking, fishing, Americans, Canadians, games and even human feelings; just broach a subject and some funny t-shirt on the particular subject could definitely be found somewhere with something side-splitting on it. And if one has a funny catchphrase or anything funny that they would like to make a t-shirt out of, the Internet is there to do it for you. Customization is the latest in fashion.

The myriad possible uses of explicit and implicit graphical pictures, different colors and psychedelic auras, bizarre fonts, whacky catchphrases and play on words make the funny t-shirt a versatile medium to expression. The use of these techniques could have one wracked with laughter or might leave one stupefied enough to stand and gape at what is emblazoned in the front. Not to be out done, the back of the t-shirt is also capable of riveting you down.

There is a fair possibility that the wearer of the t-shirt might also be sending out a warning signal in a subtle, roundabout funny way. A teenager may be indirectly venting his anger by sporting an offensive and funny t-shirt. But one also has to be careful when wearing such a shirt. In these days when words and phrases can have double meanings, simple innocuous words may mean something totally different to some other person.

Finally, if it so happens that you find yourself stumped when searching for a t-shirt with something really funny on it, you might come across one which has "I Haven't Anything To Say" blazoned on it.
