Let me first give you a brief description of the t-shirt industry in Thailand. Tourism is huge here and t-shirts are a popular product to sell. The problem is that they are made without having the grammar or spelling checked and I often find myself just laughing at the things they say.
Sometimes they grammar is okay and the spelling is correct but the t-shirt is just wrong. I saw a shirt on Sunday that was the perfect example of this. I was at church talking to some friends after the service when an older Thai lady walked by with a t-shirt that said "Don't f#@k with Jesus!" My initial response was shock, followed closely by the need to laugh and then sadness. This poor lady probably thought she was wearing a great Christian shirt because the only word she recognized and could read in English was "Jesus" and she probably had no idea how offensive her shirt was.
The moral of this story: Don't mess with Jesus!!!

Um....hi-lary-us! Then I have to ask if you said anything to her?
That is funny. And not that it makes it any better, but it could have been a reference to this:

Wow! Can I get one of those?!
I think that is awesome and I would totally buy one.
Were the letters actually f#@k or what they stood for?
alon, i didn't say anything to her. i wanted to but it is kinda against thai culture to approach someone you don't know like that!
