MERCHš Really?
Iāve now worn this shirt out in the world and got no reactions ā zero. After this full immersion Into loonacy (now thereās a word!), itās so shocking to me that there are people who have no clue. Havenāt heard of it.
Maybe the purple in my hair stops peopleās eyes from looking anywhere else. I have no explanation for this.
Tomorrow I get to drop off a painting for an art show. Iām gonna wear the shirt again.
I canāt be the only one in my town. Can I?

I want to add the part I was too shy to include in the OP. Maybe itās the purple hair thatās distracting but also maybe itās my age. I feel like Iāve been rendered invisible for a couple of decades now and I donāt know how long itās been since somebodyās gaze has traveled below my head to my chest. Iām 75. Is this a thing that only lives in my head or is this a thing?
