T-shirt Of The Day
3:13 PM, Thursday, 25 May, 2006
Today's T-shirt Of The Day is a curious one. Wandering the streets of town I spotted:
D.A.R.E. to reject drugs and violence
I really don't know what it was talking about... apart from the obvious, of course. I would normally expect a t-shirt like that to say which organisation produced it or has a vested interest in it, or where you can go if you do dare. And I was quite confuzzled by the obvious acronym... but for what?
This t-shirt receives a 8.5/10 in the category 'Should I be able to understand this?'.
NOTE: Ok it turns out that DARE is an anti-drug organisation in the USA. But they don't work here. So the mystery continues...

Perhaps you should now classify it in the Tshirts That Have Travelled Long Distances category.

It is indeed an anti-drug organisation. It stands for Drug Abuse Resistance Education. Every Thursday in 5th grade my classmates and I would have to watch some baffling video about "saying no," and once we took turns actually saying "no." A small segment was devoted to AIDS, and I'll always remember that they instructed us to not share needles and "don't have sex." It was all highly weird, especially at age 10.
