Sinister: these jeepster shirts

[Chris Heil]

     Yes....the jeepster shirt phenomenon puzzles me. I was the lucky 
recipient of two lovely B&S shirts this past christmas, the bus one and the 
weird one with the dots that says Belle and Sebastian, I'm not sure what the 
name for it was on the site. Something clever I'm sure. The first thing I 
did when I got them, of course, was run to the mirror and try them on. They 
were both in size large which is a usually a little big for me, but with a 
little help from the dryer everything always seems to work out. The dotty 
one fit perfectly and I was quite delighted, but as I slipped the bus one 
over my body there was a noticable squeeze and I could feel the air leaving 
my lungs. Was this a girly shirt? I think not...but this shirt was so tight 
it almost made me look as if I had breasts...disturbing. I tried to strecth 
the bus shirt numerous times but it seems to be made of some strange 
polyester/cotton/rubber material and always returns to its original size. 
Since christmas I've been sleeping in it every night tryin to naturally 
conform it to my body but to no avail. HoHum
what to do. I now sometimes where it out of the house, but since it looks 
strange (to say the least) on me, only under my coat, fully open to reveal 
the bus and hope a fellow sinisteran will cross my path. Well that was my 
story. Painful to hear, I know, but I think nessecary. goodbye.
