Go fuck yourself.

I’ve noticed that as well and I think it’s just due to the conversational feel of comment sections and forum threads. In person it would be a perfectly normal comment to make so it’s easy to see how the impulse translates to online, but it’s still funny to see.

Back in the early 2000s I would often link people to sites like justfuckinggoogleit.com or lmgtfy (let me Google that for you) which would perform the search for them with a condescending animation included. I like to think I’ve matured since then (I haven’t but I like to think so)

In my experience if you see an image you like online and search for relevant keywords plus “tshirt” you’ll find multiple places to buy one. It’s not the most ethical because it’s obvious that the original artist is rarely if ever being compensated but I’ve snagged at least 3 tshirts that are in my regular rotation with this method. Redbubble and teespring have both been good, but of course ymmv
