I'm wearing my MeFi t-shirt today...

November 26, 2002 9:19 AM

I'm wearing my MeFi t-shirt today, which declares "MF" in big letters on the front. Unfortunately I got my order in before the frontal design changed to read "MeFi" instead of "MF". Did anyone else buy one of these, and if so, did you wear it to the office? What did your coworkers say? Did they call you a MoFo?

I bought the baseball shirt that has MetaFilter on the front. And I don't work in an office.

This doesn't help much, does it?

My thong will be here tomorrow. I'm banking on a #1 with a bullet on FilePile when I upload the photos.

My co-workers call me a mo-fo independent of what I'm wearing.

Sorry about that, the theme of "Shaft" is now in my head. Of course now, instead of "Shaft" it's going "Matt" in that damn Isaac Hayes background singer tone. Can you dig it?

I tell everyone mine stands for "Man Fag".

Why would they call you a law firm?

...or a Korean hip-hop store?

...or an Italian financial newspaper?

Could they have you confused with the Minister of Funk?

Just got my shirt today, and it does indeed say MF. Luckily the term is slightly less ingrained in society here, so let's hope people read the back before going on random word association tours..

(I also got the personalised baseball shirt btw. Wheeeeeeeeeeeeee!)

I thought "MF" was short for, "Help me! I've been gagged!" The kind of thing you can say several times in succession to make the point emphatic.

Mostly my t-shirt sparks conversations about the internet, which must be a good thing...

I recieved my baseball jerseys last week and posted to the original thread.

No big bad MoFo here.

Thanks Matt, way cool!

I go mine last week. And I didn't even have to pay the customs broker.
