Siam State of Mind

The US$1,625 T-Shirt. Holes included.

Do you take cash or credit card?  I almost choked on my coffee this morning.  Introducing Balmain’s latest Tee.  For only US$1,625 or UK 1,009 Pounds!

Hmm… I can buy this T-shirt or pay this month’s car payments.  Sorry for being sarcastic.  I love brand name items as much as the next person, but a simple Tee for over a thousand dollars is a little bit obscene.  I don’t care if it’s all about fashion.  It’s not right.  It’s just stupid any way you put it.  Oh! This simple T-shirt with distressed holes is for women only.  I’m saved!

To all of you that think that I’m just making this up, check out the link below.

Have a great week everyone.  Work hard for your T-shirts, I’m heading to the Hanes section.

Are you for real?  Can you imagine anyone entering a Burger King and saying, “Uh… Excuse Me.  I would like to order the 7 Layer Whopper value meal please.  King Size!”  I think that this promo is only available in Japan though.  They should have a bell next to the cashier, and ring it every time someone actually orders the beast.  Just like those big bells in bars when someone wants to buy everyone a round of drinks.  Great marketing tool.   Maybe have a wall of fame too, for anyone who actually finished one off in one sitting.  These bad boys cost about USD$8.50 and are about 5 inches tall!  However, only 2 burger buns and all that meat doesn’t sound right.  What if I wanted to add cheese and bacon to make it a more complete meal?  Sounds like a Cholesterol Celebration!  Would you buy a 7 Layer Whopper?
