I suddenly envision an entire clothing line called, "Stupid". Historical figures, land masses, dates and events... all improperly identified with confidence. I'm going to be a millionaire, because Stupid sells.

[–]hydrazi 23 points24 points ago

A giraffe labeled as a T-Rex

[–]nvernon123[S] 26 points27 points ago

You could label anything as anything. Just think of the millions!!

[–]TheTalkingCamelAnus 8 points9 points ago

Anything! (Slightly NSFW)

I have a friend who made a shirt with Nicholas Cage's face and below it says "John Travolta"

[–]dnthatethejuice 166 points167 points ago

Ah Africa, the Asia of the world.

[–]Horst665 32 points33 points ago

well, you should not play risk with this attitude ;)

[–]fr33th1nk3r 15 points16 points ago

Give me the Ukraine and I'll play risk any day

[–]jhpalmer 15 points16 points ago

[–]TheTalkingCamelAnus 2 points3 points ago

How about I take your little board and SMASH it!

[–]HetfieldJ 9 points10 points ago

This is an Asian Conspiracy to conquer Africa and rename it as Asia. Fucking Asians.

[–]brygy24 22 points23 points ago

[–]kba334 6 points7 points ago

China has been buying land in Africa for years

[–]KazzaBiss 6 points7 points ago

This... China and America are both dividing up the continent. Once china gets major labor standards reforms similar to the US following the poor standards of the industrial era, then business is already setting up to begin outsourcing to Africa. Africa will literally be the new Asia.

[–]different77 0 points1 point ago

no, it's true romney/ryan, they changed that. now, as Asia, Africa will become the third most populated country.

[–]lamanate 1 point2 points ago

it's obviously a t-rex

[–]ExtraCheesed_Buddha 0 points1 point ago

Ah, so it was you who made the shirt

[–]gthing 20 points21 points ago

I wear this shirt occasionally. Instead of being the laughter riot I was expecting, instead it has been an interesting study in who can recognize the continent of South America and knows enough about Darfur to know that South America is not where it is.

In the years I've owned the shirt I can count the people who "got it" on one hand. Even the guy who ran the local "save Darfur committee" didn't notice, and didn't believe me when I pointed it out, and had to look up a map of the world on his phone.

I am disappoint.

[–]plantsaretheorigin 3 points4 points ago

where the hell do i get this shirt?

[–]angrywhitedude 1 point2 points ago

In their defense Africa and South America have relatively similar shapes if you don't include nearby continents in the picture.

[–]dmxgrrbark 0 points1 point ago

It consistently blows my mind at how bad people are at even the simplest of geography. Then again, I can't imagine that very many people played this game as much as I did when I was a growing up.

[–]ChrisCRISIS81 35 points36 points ago

Sweet! A shirt with a picture of a horse!

[–]smoothchaos 10 points11 points ago

[–]chinkostu 3 points4 points ago

"Schneider lens!"

[–]Average_Toaster 103 points104 points ago

That's the joke

[–]Old-Ben-Kenobi 10 points11 points ago

Yup, same idea as this shirt.

[–]loopdigga420 3 points4 points ago

Cynthia Greene doesn't get it.

[–]Show-Me-Your-Moves 0 points1 point ago

This is probably a great conversation-starter because people will stop you to correct it.

[–]batigoal 0 points1 point ago

Should have the German flag. It would be funnier.

[–]LeNordique 9 points10 points ago

Yup, just like this one

[–]aryst0krat 19 points20 points ago

I thought it was maybe supposed to be a joke, but what's there to get?

[–]StewieBanana 20 points21 points ago

Uh, the punchline. Obviously.

[–]aryst0krat 1 point2 points ago

Oh shit, how did I not see that?!

[–]aceoftrachs 6 points7 points ago

The band Asia did not play the song Africa, that was Toto.

[–]aryst0krat 4 points5 points ago

Now I'm even more confused.

[–]HaunterGatherer 7 points8 points ago

Well, you see... Grand Funk Railroad paved the way for Jefferson Airplane, which cleared the way for Jefferson Starship. The stage was set for the Alan Parsons project, which I believe was some sort of hovercraft....

[–]aryst0krat 2 points3 points ago

It's all starting to click...

No, wait, that was my brain cracking.

[–]gthing 2 points3 points ago

It's sort of a commentary on ignorance.

[–]DTX120 2 points3 points ago

[–]needlestack 18 points19 points ago

I want this shirt.

[–]clickstops 8 points9 points ago

I don't know why the top link in this thread isn't to a place where I can buy this shirt.

[–]IamWiddershins 1 point2 points ago

What is the internet coming to...

[–]reddshirt 2 points3 points ago

When someone requests a shirt I do my best. I present Asia ...I think.

[–]CSimpson1162 4 points5 points ago

[–]dcunited 10 points11 points ago

[–]theskabus 7 points8 points ago

I have this shirt, wore it in Greece too.

I do not believe it was well received.

[–]Mimble_Wimble 7 points8 points ago

What a charming anecdote, sir.

[–]SideShow90 6 points7 points ago

Is that the "cool story bro" of gentlemen?

[–]Nyraye 1 point2 points ago

now what if they put a german flag on that?

haha, or a polish flag with "GERMAN" under it (or Czech, French, Austria flags, as well as the various other parts of northern africa and eastern and northern europe [and even more areas that I sadly don't remember from my german history class (specifically WWI to post WWII [damn, alot of brackets & parenthesis...math major here!])]).

[–]StewieBanana 8 points9 points ago

Well it's close, same planet at least.

[–]Vladimir_Putins_Cock 2 points3 points ago

Same side of the planet, I mean, Asia is right next to Africa

[–]Flemtality 39 points40 points ago

Must be a stupid American, only an American would put a picture of Australia with the word "Asia" under it.

[–]SomethingFoul 5 points6 points ago

Seriously. Everyone knows "Asia" has to be above it so Australia is down under.

[–]Scooby484k 6 points7 points ago

I would buy the hell out of that shirt.

[–]dig_dong 15 points16 points ago

That's the joke

[–]mjr4 7 points8 points ago

What a day! First Obama is doing a Vote Quimby and now Reddit is in on a joke.

[–]ALLtheCupcakes 1 point2 points ago

Agreed. I'd buy it! It made me laugh. China is pseudo-colonizing Africa at the moment, anyway... so I'm assuming that's the joke.

[–]keithfinn 3 points4 points ago

Looks like the 1 in 7 chance of getting it right didnt go their way.

[–]nill0c 7 points8 points ago

If China had it's way maybe.

[–]Ginnigan 9 points10 points ago

[–]sweetsweetcoffee 0 points1 point ago

Pretty sad since these are more that likely(as in 100%) make somewhere in Asia...

[–]nudave 2 points3 points ago

Yeah, everyone knows that Toto sings this, not Asia.

[–]squeegep 2 points3 points ago

Ah from my favourite song: "God bless the rains down in Malaysia"

[–]Wash_Bucket 4 points5 points ago

As an American I can confirm that this is indeed Asia.

[–]PKA1959 0 points1 point ago

Damn, so close.

[–]Fenarol 1 point2 points ago

Well, if I squint my eyes as turn my head it looks like Asia. There! That's Japan off the coast!

Wait, after reading the comments i came to realize that it was infact not Asia...my education fails me...fuck small town public schools

[–]rainfaint 0 points1 point ago

I still remember where I was the first time I saw a map of Africa labeled entirely in Chinese. Presumably it was all labeled correctly, but it was still quite a moment.

[–]SuperCow1127 -1 points0 points ago

Isn't that South Asia?

[–]bedintruder 1 point2 points ago

♫ Gonna take me a lot to drag me away from you... ♪

[–]orellan 1 point2 points ago

It makes some sense in Polish. Asia is a diminutive of the name Joanna, so you can assume it's a t-shirt for a girl named Joanna who likes Africa.

[–]atypicalreddituser 0 points1 point ago

[–]bigsz 1 point2 points ago

I think Geography Master Drew Carey made this shirt.

[–]Stair_Car 0 points1 point ago

I must be at a weird resolution, because when I clicked on that, it didn't go far enough for me to see "Asia." I sat there for several seconds looking for some inaccuracy on the coastline before I realized I needed to scroll.

[–]eyegtcs 0 points1 point ago

i don't know what kind of store you were in, but i know that the moorish science temple (an african-american islamic sect) asserts that Africa is part of Asia. they believe that all non-European peoples are in fact "asiatic" (here's their central doctrinal statement on the issue: http://hermetic.com/bey/7koran.html#CHAPTER_XLV ). The reasons that this idea developed are complex, but can largely be traced back to the tendency among black nationalists in the 1920s to identify with asian nationalists in order to gain mutual support in fighting white colonialism and racism.

Due to the influence of the Moorish science temple (which was relatively popular in the 1920s-1950s), other black islamic groups (most notably the nation of islam) have also adopted the idea that african americans are "asiatic". the identification of africa with asia is therefore a somewhat well known black islamic sectarian cultural reference.

[–]Vortex0166 0 points1 point ago

Damn, I want that shirt....

[–]mrP0P0 0 points1 point ago

Its meant to be ironic. Seriously, think about it. Why would there be a shirt of Asia with the word Asia under it?

[–]clockworksage 0 points1 point ago

It kind of looks like an Asian Rhino.

That's from River Island where I work. It's the idea and meant to be funny. There was also a t-shirt that had a picture of tomatoes that said "Beef". Suffice to say, they did not sell well at all and as you can see, are found in the sale section, also not selling.

I would not be surprised to see my African neighbors wearing it and not realizing why it's funny. A lot of them are illiterate, and even those who read don't understand English, so all the Given-away reject shirts of the world come to our market and they'd buy pretty much anything with Africa on it.
