How We Roll @Motto

T-Shirt Selling Mania and YouTube Plug


The vid in the above post was filmed by a journalist this past Saturday at the Somerville Art Festival, which we rocked. They show us about 19 seconds in, after the pudgy Asian. We had a constant crowd of people laughing at our sarcasm and creativity. I think our table was a refreshing break from the booths of native American dream catchers and hand-painted shitty pottery. There was another t-shirt vendor who had Nietzsche quotes on all their shirts. One of our customers walked over to us and said, "You need a masters degree to get their shirts. You guys make something I can relate to. Do you have anything with stick figures?"


Other favorite quotations of the day include:


"Those guys are jerks."


Upon seeing Arrhythmia's Gonna Getcha: "Oh my god! I have an arrhythmia problem! I can't wait to wear this in front of my mom. She's gonna cry."


"I hope you're proud of yourselves."


Regarding Tequila Mockingbird: "I have to get this for my friend Christy. She has a mocking bird and she's an alcoholic."


"That's not art."


Alyssa, a 12 year-old junior high-school student, commented on Black Girls Have More Fun: "That's true. I know some and they're really fun."
