Eh, I guess I've heard the "my 5 year old could paint that" excuse when looking at art one too many times.

Believe me, I don't see these shirts as the pinacle of creativity, I just think it is terribly refreshing for Disney to go out on at least SOME sort of ledge for once.

Ah - but Marcel Duchamp exhibts a urinal in an art show calling it the "Everalting Fountain" and it is art. You or I do the same thing and it's not ;)

Even if they are boring their quality is higher than these shirts.

And I don't see Disney as going out on a ledge here at all. They have authorized retailers to sell *fun* shirts for a few years now. They're just now bringing this stuff to the parks; at a much higher price and no increase in quality.

I suppose it won't surprise you that I quickly grow bored with dada.

They do it with food, why not do it with fashion?

Like I said earlier, quality is not much of a concern with me in this day of fashon moving at light speed.

To me, it is a departure from what they regularly carry at WOD, therefore it is a bit of a ledge - for them. For the rest of the world, no so much.

And, the price is comperable - or even less - than what is in boutique stores.

Heh - and that is where you and I differ. But that's cool, for otherwise the world would be a rather dull place - despite a universal appreciation for Dada ;)

Whatever works for you. Personally if I am going to buy something that fun I want to wear/wash it more than once before it falls apart.

You originaly said Disney, which is what I was replying to. I see it as WoD finally catching up to the retailers selling Disney products. More of behind the times then ahead of them.

I can't make an educated comment to what is in botique stores. I prefer to create my own style then follow the fast and furious fashion world ;)

Uh huh.

I have a wardrobe rule at my house: if it's not something that I might wear to an interview or a formal occasion, it has to be able to survive the washing machine.

I'm not a fan of shoddy construction, no matter how fleetingly fashionable it is. That being said, I don't have a problem with Disney selling such things, since people apparently want to buy them. I think said people are a little silly, but I'm sure they would find facets of my life to be silly.
