TKC TUESDAY QUESTION: HAVE KANSAS CITY HIPSTERS GONE TOO FAR WITH THIS RACIST T-SHIRT FEATURING MAYOR SLY?!?!
This evening we want to examine the fragile "creative" class economy in Kansas City that's mostly based on production, trading and selling of t-shirts and other artsy merch.
To wit . . .
CHECK THIS TRAGIC ONLINE IMAGE FEATURING MAYOR SLY AND HOMETOWN PRIDE THAT MIGHT HAVE GONE TOO FAR . . . YOU DECIDE!!!
Of course Kansas City hipsters are fond of correcting their brethren in Seattle and Portland by reminding everyone that Kansas City is in Missouri . . . And a t-shirt is a fine way of conveying that message.
However, the Mayor dressed up like Col. Sanders and cussing might be a bit too much . . . Also, the Western tie is just one step below the bolo when it comes outdated fashions that hipsters have embraced . . . So the insult is double.
Anyhoo . . .
This t-shirt tribute might signal that we're in the post-modern era of Mayor Sly love in Kansas City wherein the local "creative" community has stopped paying tribute after the consulting checks have dried up and we can finally forget the myth that any politico can stay popular and/or beloved for long given stagnant, local economic conditions.

No link to order?
ReplyDeleteThat's unfair. Let the readership decide.
Think we better hurry orders. Wonder if KFC is gonna go litigious on this. Ooooops.
DeleteSly might. Nah!
DeleteI guess it was how I was raised, but displaying the F-word on a t-shirt was beyond the scope of imagination. Also a reflection on how you were raised.
ReplyDeleteRespect is taking different forms these days, I guess. Maybe it's just going away as a collective value.
used to be that you could get arrestee for wearing a shirt like that in public.
ReplyDeleteDon't think so
DeleteBy any chance, is this T-shirt being sold by a young guy from the back of a U-Haul truck, along with custom body bags?
ReplyDeleteProud to be in KC? There's a T-shirt for that
ReplyDeletei like this t-shirt and I'm buying it. I need something to wear to the next city council meeting.
ReplyDeleteIf you want to talk racist about our mayor why don't you consider the shuckin' and jivin' he does every time he screws the taxpayers into paying for another one of his vanity projects. If anybody is getting insulted by that shirt its the Colonel.
ReplyDeleteSomebody told me once that the Col. wasn't really a Col., just like Sly isn't a real Mayor.
ReplyDeleteGotta fucking love it when the hipsters go racist. Welcome to the party.
ReplyDeleteI sort of like and just might get one to wear.
ReplyDelete7:44 come on we had shirts that said fuck on them back in the 60's and 70's. Guess you never was in a head shop to see such or was ever on any college campus.
ReplyDeleteHi there Bear , Snow Bro here . . Geeze , thought I was insensitive to be part Yeti , part Super Fly . May have to see about my own t-shirts , just got back from the great white north , could've sold a shit ton up there ! Humans everywhere ! Peace out . Snow Bro.
ReplyDeleteHa! Confederate flag be damned. Fbomb on a billboard next?
ReplyDeleteTo think the working zippered jeans fly on the Sticky Fingers album was scandalous in the 70's.
John D. Conners is a bitch who hates the real truth about what is going on in KC.
ReplyDeleteTony you would not know racist if it jumped up and slapped you fucking silly.
ReplyDeleteI could understand where KFC might want to sue though.
Nobody can take a joke anymore.
ReplyDeleteDegree Dave. You got to think harder.
ReplyDeleteOh, the suit would be about trying for a payday and appeasement of the agrieved classes. Yeah, precious feelings cannot be offended. But, at the stoplight and in the grocery lot the profane lowlife cRap is booming out "n*gger" "m*therf*cker" for tots, gramps and the preacher's mothers' ears.
ReplyDeleteLooks like Leon Trotsky, tastes like man chicken!
ReplyDeletePull your panties down on stage and watch you sweat quick
ReplyDeleteSuckers back to pull they style is transsexual
Lesbians dance with the funky heterosexual
You on the mic, and when you rhyme I start to jerk off
Let my dog lick you German Shepherd want to bust off
I tear your legs and spot MC's having anal sex
Step around like a Tampax, and step up next
I enter New York, no problem with my dick out
California porno star, my ass you can lick out
Saying "What?" with sperm dripping down your partner's butt
I see MC's in my face with their ass up
You can't print, say or even intimate, the word NIGGER, but you can put "fuck" on a t-shirt... What's wrong with this picture???
ReplyDelete451, and yet magically you seem to have no trouble saying the word. What exactly is the impediment?
DeleteI think sly's face on a jar of Vaseline would be more appropriate.
ReplyDeleteTax payers get screwed again and again with no end in sight.
The Fword is offensive, racism no .
They also need a shirt of sly eating a watermelon
ReplyDeleteAccording to Jeff Foxworthy, you might be a pussy if:
ReplyDeleteYou write f-word instead of FUCK.
You write n-word instead of NIGGER
You write bigot instead of NIGGER HATER
You write hipster instead of DEADBEAT
You write deet instead of BULLSHIT
You write denizen instead HARVEY THE INVISIBLE RABBIT
where is the damn link to purchase......
ReplyDeleteYes, I want one. Where is the rest of the story Tony.
ReplyDelete9:44am sound like one of two people. Chuck or Tony.
ReplyDeleteMy bet, Chuck. He is on KCC every day, commenting like the Jew Boy he is.
When he is not blowing Hearne or Glaze, he is back over here bent over, ass cheeks spread for some Butholio from Tony.
I did not know they still say sperm dripping down your partners butt around here since sperm is sacred and this riddle celebrates abortion of a living thing known as Gods creature.
