The T-shirts over here can be random and surreal but I found it very hard not to laugh when conducting the one to one speaking exam for one of the thirteen-year-old girls today. Emblazened in deep-red on her pink T-shirt, in large capital letters was "FARTY".

No, of course not. I just don't get wearing a t-shirt with a word that you don't know what it means. And, I can't imagine a 13-year-old girl wearing a t-shirt with "FARTY," knowing what it means. So I wondered if there was more to the story...
T-shirts are random and surreal here. Just a short while ago I saw a "Mucky Mouse" shirt. A little old lady who lives nearby wears a baseball cap with Fuck You written on it. Whenever I have asked a student about some (more innocuous) slogan they have NEVER known what the words on the shirt mean.
