I was at the beach, and the only shirt that I had with me was wet.

So, I went into a surf shop and got one of their branded shirts. After paying, I put on the shirt walked out of the shop back onto the beach. Before I made it back to my stuff, a bird took a huge dump on i.t

Not really clothing, but I managed to scrape up my watch 4 days after buying it. I took it off and put it into my pocket cause I didn't want to get it dirty while doing something. Well, lo and behold, my paranoia about wearing out the "clip" on the watch made me keep it unlatched. So it decided to scrape the glossy face to crap while in the protected space of my pocket...

I was trying on a brand new shirt, and ripped a hole in the arm because I forgot to remove one of the pins that they hold it together with. I hate those stupid little pins.

I screwed up a washer full of pants/shirts by accidentally leaving a ballpoint pen in the pocket of one of them. Didn't ruin them permanently, but it took a good 2-3 days to get all the ink stains out of the clothes. (hair spray and LOTS of paper towels... woo)

#1. Received a nice, white, long-sleeved shirt for Christmas. Put it on then sat down for dinner, got gravy on it. Stain, somehow, never came out. ~15 minutes.

#2. New school clothes. I went to a buddy's house and we were looking for booze. There was some in the fridge in his garage, but we didn't want to open the big doors because his parents would see/notice. I opted to climb through the window, which resulted in a tear in my pants. But booze was acquired so it's all good.

That wouldn't be a problem if they put less than 8 thousand of them in the shirt.


I had just gotten a new shirt was wearing it for the first time. I was eating breakfast (a buttered english muffin I think) and I dropped it onto my shirt. Literally had the shirt on for less than 5 minutes. :( I can still see where I dirtied it, even after the shirt has been to the dry cleaners a few times.

some people pay extra to get those rips, you just need to rip the other side and you are set.
