hmmm.. I wonder if this is intentional or accidental by the maker of the shirt. Perhaps its designed for deafies to wear and directed at audist or ignorant people. Or some deafie is playing a joke on the maker of the shirt.the signs say eat shit and die. I looked em' up. I know shit from outside resources, and eat and die are pretty easy to look up.
Yup I agree the signs are eat shit and die.

I've heard that it's a common cruel trick in many languages.
Just FYI: the designer is a married mom, graphic designer, from Michigan, with this lovely side line business. :roll:
This is basically one of those T-shirts intended for two different groups. It's telling those who know sign language to "eat shit and die" and those who can read to "have a nice day".
I totally took it a different way. I thought it was a joke among deaf people and signers. The fact that their shirt implies that this is how you sign "have a nice day" but REALLY says "eat shit and die" is a joke only signers would get. I think the joke is on the hearing/non-signers.
Yep.... I think the joke is on the hearing/non-signers.
