Today we will be featuring some amazing work from a man who goes by the name of keuj. He’s french and fancy. I actually really love the diversity of styles he works with, and the unique charm in his characters. His graphics simply feel like classic screenprints, and I think it makes him a natural fit for the t-shirt medium. Unfortunately, he seems to be quite the busy beaver. As such, I will take a few moments to speak on his behalf.

I feel there are two important elements to this design. The first is being a good boy. Loving your mama, horses, and America too. Admittedly, this is something I do not have much conventional experience with, but as I am an expert on everything, I am happy to expound further. You see, we should all strive to be good boys and girls, but we need to look at it from a modern perspective. Just as years have taught us that authority is meant to be questioned, and just as time has led us to a place where, in many ways, we are more free than ever, we need to realize that doing good comes in many forms, and simply doing good is not enough so long as bad is swallowing good up. You’ll see in the image that this is clearly illustrated. While the main character cares immensely for his pet, he realizes that his unkempt haircut and one eye fly in the face of societal fashion. He is saying “Listen up, having your own identity is good, like loving your dear sweet pets.” Well, technically he’s just saying “Be a Good Boy.” But I am SURE that is the subtext.

Pets are, indeed, the second key element. If you have a pet, you should buy this shirt for everyone who has ever rubbed its belly. You see, an animal, even a bird, can enrich your life. It can make you feel soft and warm. Like our amazingly comfortable t-shirts. $12 is no hardship for your pet’s comfort. Coincidentally, this shirt is $12. It is really astounding just how many such coincidences occur when viewing this print deeply. But we don’t want you to overanalyze when the simple truth is that just holding your pet makes the world nothing but puffy clouds and rainbows. In fact, it makes you want to be a good boy. At least until it’s time to clean up after them. No one likes that.

Now, I realize some of you may not like boys or pets, and to you, I can only gape in amazement. But no, I do not judge you. I don’t actually like anything. Which is why I am not above bribing you with a free autographed AdderXYU glamor shot for every 50th copy this tee sells. It’s the classic “Sassy Adder,” with a wink, and a “here’s looking at you, kid” hand gesture. Collect all five witty autographs!
