I think a customized hat would be better.

I love this one.



The 'Autistic Kids Rock' one is pretty awesome as well.

I had a t-shirt back in grade 10 that said; "Sodomy - Funner than it ought to be."

The principal at school made me take it off and wear it inside-out.

How much is shipping to Canada and what method do they use - the fine folks at USPS or the rapists at UPS?

Well, not legally you can't.

I don't know if that would fly in Canada, while on one hand I think people don't get at upset over stuff like that here, on the other hand I think less people here would actually buy those shirts.

Enough to run a business? Not sure.

I think there's money to be made, there's tons of tshirt sites, this one just fills an extreme niche.

I just think there'll be a dozen guys popping up looking to fill the void.

Focusing on Canada is a good way to differentiate yourself I guess, but the market is smaller here. Can't think of a good way to get any market data either.

If you want to make cash off a canadian shirt FG I'd suggest something like "F the USA" or something stupid. It's chique to hate the US, and people would eat it up.

Personally I love offensive shirts. Going to the bar and annoying people is fun times IMO.
