The increasing fame of the T-shirts from its simple beginning has always been quite established on records. One may come across simple T-shirts which have prints on both the front and the backsides in addition to the different forms of T-shirts like the period shirts, fancy and trendy shirts, surfing T-shirts, funky and comic T-shirts among others.

The hilarious and the funny ones tickled the funny bone with their clean humor and people smiled or laughed at them, remembered some of them, forgot most of them and went along on their way. These t-shirts not only had jokes and funny sayings on them but they also poked fun at almost everything and everybody but stopped short of being rude.

Then someone who had a belief that bad taste is a fashion statement came up with the idea of writing crazy things on these shirts. Crazy things and that included pictures as well. Mad things and pictures. Mildly scatological stuff (medically, scatology is the study of one of those words used in crazy t-shirts). The use of four letter words on t-shirts was no longer considered offensive. Surprisingly, it became a fashion statement. Crazy t-shirts became a craze. A statement like "Bad Samaritan" is crazy. We only associate "Samaritan" with "Good".

This fad is evident in the T-shirts while shopping where one may come across all sorts of funky and whacky T-shirts that sometimes give a person with fashion awareness a rude shock that fashion lies in the eyes of observer and just about anything can turn into a trend setter and not just high fashion.

Why did these T-shirts come into vogue? Maybe as one of the established French designer like Coco Chanel remarked "The most courageous act is still to think for yourself. Aloud." As it is quite clear that this kind of T-shirt is a statement of assertiveness. It is not just self-expression but in this case it is the assertion of the designer. It is a creative pursuit in its own way though some people may shun it as a creation of a bizarre mind. And it is a known fact that creativity does require a dose of wackiness.

Nevertheless, the crazy t-shirt has come to stay in our midst, and it wouldn't be surprising if almost everybody owns one of them, at least the mildly crazy kind. Of course, secretly he or she may want to wear the more bolder and crazier one but refrain from doing so for fear of offending someone or other.

Gifting a T-shirt to some one can be a way of exhibiting your warmth towards a relative or a friend or even a known acquaintance. It is convenient to gift them either a hip, classic or a funky T-shirt. Surely, crazy T-shirts can be ideal gifts for your friends or relatives who know you well but may not deem fit to lesser known people.The subtle ones may be a good choice than the bolder ones.

Now if you feel that buying crazy T-shirt is inferior grade, inferior in the sense that it is a loud expression of someone else, then you need to think out of the box and come up with something that is really bizarre. There is no shortage of matter on this crazy God-forsaken planet. Just rack your brains and go on the internet and get it done. Wear it and make a loud expression.
