”I think it’s very healthy for a person to spend time alone. You need to know how to be alone and not defined by another person.

”You don’t become yourself by yourself. You become you, boosted on others’ shoulders, buoyed by others’ smiles. You may be a singular person, but your success will always be plural. -Robert Krulwich

Guys I don’t want to alarm anyone but I just made the best shirt ever, I am PRETTY SURE.

You’re amazing. But how precisely amazing are you? This shirt lets everyone know.

Written in consultation with my Actual Doctor friend, this shirt has fully-accurate information how how amazing you really are. We really did do all the research and calculate all the math. Did you know that if someone ate you they’d gain about 110,000 calories of awesome with over 73000% of their recommended daily intake of Vitamin A? Did you know you come complete with about 6L of air contained in a matching set of meaty carrying cases, 1000 different species of bacteria on your skin alone, one (1) SPOOKY SKELETON, and one (1) liver, uncooked? Because you do! Look, you’re amazing. We all know it. NOW.

Because you bought this shirt.
