That these items get such strong reactions probably means they are a success to those who would dare to wear them, becasue it sets them appart - just as Gap, or Banana Republic, or Pants that say Juicy across their ass - part of their appeal, is that certain people would never wear them

Well, yes this is true. I am just a bit disappointed that it has come to this extreme.
I guess for me personally because before I could say 'If I really wanted that $40. t-shirt I could get it.' And that meant I wasn't seperated from any other Disney afficianado. But now it is more of the have and have nots.
Being a 'have not' isn't such a fun place to be.
And if you ever, EVER see me in a pair of pants that say 'Juicy' across my bum, you have my permission to shoot me. Dead on the spot. {wait, make sure it doesn't say 'Joycie', k?}
As a footnote~a creative friend of mine told me she could make me a shirt if I want.
I'd love a Tinkerbell...any pictures of those around here?
