…with nothing but their logo on it. So you can be a literal walking advertisment but you paid them to do so. For a $8 shirt that sells for $35, but is $70 with their logo on it.
Nothing says, “I’m really dumb with money” more than sportswear that has no practical use beyond general clothing.
God damn, that nails it.
I find it crazy that this comic was published in 1992. Still as relevant as back then. Maybe moreso.

Uh, I’d like to counter with the people who get the fucking Monster logo painted on their cars. Like, you’re that fucking proud of your energy drink of choice?

Maybe a collab with Hugo Boss ?
That’s egregious, wow.
