Will:
It's nothing to take offense at. Not everything is going to appeal to
everyone. I say this because...well, I don't particularly care for
the shirts either. I'm glad that most of the comments you've received
have been positive, and I'm glad there are people who like 'em and are
buying 'em. I've never voiced an opinion ('til now) because I never
saw a reason to say something that might seem considered derogatory
(and again, it's not...it's just a matter of preference).
So why say something now? Because Dave, in all of his infinite wisdom
and grammatical errors felt it necessary to suggest that we must not
be buying Will's shirts because we're "cheap". Well, sorry Dave, but
I don't see where you have the right to suggest that of anybody. You
don't know how much any of us make, nor do you know our financial
situations. Yeah, I do ok...no, I don't make $45/hr. But even though
I do OK, I do have a wife and 2 kids and I've been selfish enough to
spend my money on stuff like...oh, sending my daughter to camp, or
preschool, or taking them different places on the weekends since we
don't get to spend as much time together during the week as we'd like
to. There's mortgage, car payments, and all of those fun things. But
God forbid I don't show my support for the community by not buying a
shirt. For you to even suggest that we're all "cheap" and "pathetic"
is appreciated by the community as a whole, I'm sure.
