No, not that kind...

But I bought a t-shirt at a concert I was at recently and the fucker shrank in the wash. Now 'tis not wearable unless I want to look like some sort of weirdo.

*sigh*

If I wash my clothes in COLD water this never happens.

You're not supposed to ever wash concert t-shirts. The accumulated filth and body odor is supposed to remind you of the great times you had while wearing them.

If I was Devil Unicorn, I'd listen.

But I'm not.

It wasn't a WASTE shirt, was it?

Yes, yes it was.

And if you're gonna tell me the whole "British sizes are smaller": it fit fine before I washed it.

I own two WASTE shirts.

One, after the first washing, shrank horribly -- but only vertically. It's practically a belly shirt now.

T'other, I bought a size larger than I'd normally get, to compensate for shrinking. So of course the fucking thing refuses to shrink.

Go straight to hell, Radiohead.

I own this one. It didn't shrink, but I did fall for the one size too small thing.

See, I wanted that one, 'cause the phrase on the front is pure awesome.

BUT I KNEW THEY WERE GOING TO TRICK ME SOMEHOW

"When asked in interview about the shirts, Mister Yorke responded by saying 'The raindrops' over and over again, followed by a crude rendition of Ring Around the Rosie. It was hailed as genius."
