Happy Slusho T-Shirt Day!

After having an awesome day at work, I arrived home to a Fed-Ex package from the Slusho Distrobution Center in South Carolina (A.K.A. Japan). Along with my black slusho girly tee were several sheets of Japanese newspaper tears:

Three tears in all were included and while my initial reaction was: This is a clue! I'm now more inclined to believe that it's just a cute little joke. That they added real Japanese newspaper for packaging as if the box really came from Japan and not South Carolina. Besides, if it were a clue, it's a really bad one. Not everyone can find a Japanese translator. It looks like a real newspaper to me. I also don't think the marketing firm in charge of this whole thing would take the time to print up thousands of fake Japanese newspapers just for one clue. Then again, who knows. If I know myself, I'll be taking out the old magnifying glass and scanning every inch. I'll keep you posted.

I didn't scan all three pages, but if anyone wants me to, I can. I just didn't think it was necessary. Click the image above for a hi-res version.

You may want to check over at Project Cloverfield to see if their newspaper clippings are the same as yours; if so, I'd say definitely check for clues.

are the shirts really "extra small for tight fit"?

No Spin87, mine is a medium and it fits kind of tight. Girly tees are always a little small anyway. I figure, I got it on and that's what counts :) It's also not the best quality t-shirt, sort of thin and a little transparent.

The men's shirts definitely run small. The XL fits like a large.

I actually kind of like the thinness - it's not so heavy.
