Unless you think someone has the copyright on that statement (and you want to respect copyrights), why don't you have one made, e.g. at spreadshirt.com? You'll find pre-made tees at a much lower price - spreadshirt.com is typically at USD 24 - but if you really want it, you may be willing to pay the price.
I have about a dozen tees made by spreadshirt, essentially plain white text on black. At the moment I am wearing one decaring, "I, for one, like Roman numerals". (I have had to explain the double meaning to a few that are not native English speakers.) Another one has the text "The Space Station: They call it rocket science, but haven't even got 1 G" and a drawing of a mobile phone. One that was bordering on copyright infringement use the YouTube logo in its invitation "Me train, YouTube?" - but a lagre fraction of those who get it, feel offended, so I am not using that one everywhere. Another one that I have had to explain to several people is the one declaring "I say sibboleth". ... People take note of my tees, and when I haven't come to work in a new one for months, people start asking. My problem is that I don't like throwing away stuff that are still in good condidion. At the moment, I have perfectly fine tees in my closet for a few years.

Had a coworker comment about a long night, and I mentioned something about long days and long nights. Sounded like a song.
Which there are many, but I stumbled across an album of that name[^].

When people complain to me about long days I usually just tell them it's still 24 hours, just like every other day.
That's usually not what they want to hear

Interesting question. I'm sure it'll stir up a heated diskussion!

Misdirection and obfuscation is the name of the game!
So are the uppercase 'A' in "Army", and "army swimmers" given they have tentacles not arms or legs, but common usage allows.
In my mind, anyway!

Shouldn't the plural be "octopi"?
|
|

It's Greek, so octopodes if memory serves.

That really just sounds like the evolutionary tree for an octopus themed Pokemon.
