What that? You don’t already own this shirt? Like OMG! Have you not had internet access for the last two weeks? You did? Well, then there’s like no excuse why you are not sporting this tee.
According to the New York Times (Yes, that’s right. The NY Times is reporting on this t-shirt!) “The [three wolf moon] shirt has been Amazon’s top-selling item of apparel every day since May 19, and it has morphed into one of those instant icons of Internet culture.” And it all started when Brian Govern, a 32-year-old law student wrote a hilarious review of the shirt on amazon.com just six months ago. He basically describes the shirt as “magic” and goes on to describe the pros and cons as:
Pros: Fits my girthy frame, has wolves on it, attracts women
Cons: Only 3 wolves (could probably use a few more on the ‘guns’), cannot see wolves when sitting with arms crossed, wolves would have been better if they glowed in the dark
So we have to type at our laptops and ponder in a Carrie Bradshaw-esque inner monologe, “Can the internet get us to do ANYHING?” Can just ANYTHING become a meme if the right blogs adopt it as cool, ironic, or FAIL in a good way? If so here are a few things on Amazon we’d like to see if we could turn into New-York-Times-internet-meme-reporting-worthy items:
This Hannah Montana Pop Rock Quilt: 
The Teva Women’s Hurricane Outdoor Sandal:
And of course this sporty It Figures Slender Thighs Tulips and Daises Swimdress swimsuit
Clearly, all we need is one outrageous product review. Who’s up to the challenge?
