Everyone has the right to free speech. Even stupid speech is protected. In the spirit of this, I’ve made a bet with DBF for him to wear this shirt while walking down 7th Avenue in Park Slope, Brooklyn, where the stroller mafiso reigns supreme. The shirt must be in full view (not covered by a jacket) and the walk must last for at least 30 minutes on a Saturday afternoon, when mommies and daddies are busy shepherding their offspring to and from the co-op and buying overpriced jumpers from the kiddie boutiques that line the street.

Are we asking to be chased down the street? Maybe. Perhaps subject to some angry comments? Probably. I’ll post reactions, given the DBF doesn’t chicken out when the moment of truth comes.
