UFC Fighter Has Idea For T-Shirt With A Bunch Of Shit Written All Over It

LAS VEGAS—Mixed martial artist Phillipe Nover announced design plans Thursday for a new T-shirt that he claimed would be completely covered in hundreds of dumbshit fighting terms and stupid fucking tribal patterns. "This shirt will feature a rambling assortment of worthless violent images and words, like 'grapple' and 'slam,' all thrown together in the most unappealing colors possible," said Nover, adding that graphics would include spray-painted angel wings, laughing skulls wearing crowns, random splatter marks, and other images so idiotic they could only appeal to 8-year-old boys from Long Island or emotionally undeveloped middle-aged men. "It's going to look like two Ed Hardy shirts fucked and vomited on each other. I can guarantee it will be the stupidest, ugliest T-shirt ever made." When asked if the inside tag would also feature an unsightly design, Nover admitted he had not yet thought of that but would be sure to include "machine guns or naked lady silhouettes or something else that's stupid."

MMA has finally made to my favorite fake news source! The picture they used wasn't even Nover.

That's actually pretty funny. I started to be offended as an mma fan, but then realized how much I hate when I see loud frat boys wearing affliction stuff.

The Onion is awesome.
I'm sure the guy in the pic isn't a fighter at all.
Probably just some meathead tool.
Thats how the Onion rolls.

I attend what was ranked at one point the #1 party college in the US. This place optimizes college life. I say that to then say, what kind of Frat Boys do you hang out with? Because I can guarantee you without a shadow of a doubt, not one Frat Boy here wears an Affliction T-Shirt.

I think you are just tossing two perceived negative stereotypes together.

And whatever you do, do NOT, I repeat, DO NOT, search for "frat boy" on Google with the safe search turned off and click on images. *Shudders*

Where I watch a lot of fights is some bars in Guelph, which is a University town. And the guys that come in are mostly University kids. This is the crowd I'm speaking of. whether they're frat boys or not I guess isn't really important. I kind of used that term flippantly.

But ya, those people we all see aren't just frat boys, they're also construction workers and Ed Hardy douchebags, I'm not giving enough credit where credit is due i suppose haha

and thanks for the warning, but that sounds an awful lot like something I wouldn't be googling.

I just challenge stereotypes is all. Somehow wearing Affliction shirts makes you a dumb frat boy. Being in a frat some how makes you an idiot. Wearing Ed Hardy makes you a douchebag. I guess people think these are fine but they are no different than racial stereotypes.

To put it in context with recent news, it's like signaling out all Muslims for what happened at 9/11.

And yes...DO NOT google that. I was looking for like a picture of what a frat boy would look like and all I saw was...I cant even explain it. DONT DO IT!
