Girl: Whatcha painting, Mike? Mike: Nothin'. A picture of my dog. Girl: What's his name? Mike: Farley. Girl: That's a nice name. You're wearing my dad's shirt, you know. That's my dad's shirt, so, don't get it dirty! Noise: DUMP!!
What parent would give their kid shirts to be used as art smocks and not expect them to get dirty? I remember when I was in school and the teachers would ask for that stuff, they’d say what it was for and that it should be shirts or whatever, they didn’t mind being ruined, for this very reason.

Would her dad really lend it to her if he didn’t want it to get dirty, though?

NO! But his wife would. Women have no understanding of how men feel about their clothes.

Most men don’t feel anything about clothes.

stpatme - I agree. Valuable lesson learned after dissing husband’s disco-era jackets. ;)

Use old dirty shirt to put on while doing the arts with paints. Use common sense eh! :-]

Kids don’t know it’s ok to get their smocks dirty - if you told them that, you’d have an even bigger mess.

Saw this in B&W in the daily paper. Color is definitely better.

Um, the whole point of using a painting shirt is that it doesn’t matter if it gets paint on it.
