My Girlfriend Is Psychotic Tee (BACKPRINT)

The My Girlfriend Is Psychotic Tee from Unethical Threads is a back print that says exactly what it says, until it doesn't. Certain letters in PSYCHOTIC are printed in red. The remaining letters spell a very different word: HOT.

How does the color trick work?

Six of the nine letters in PSYCHOTIC print in red. The remaining three (H, O, and T) stay in the base ink color. From a distance it reads like a warning. Up close it's a compliment your girlfriend will either love or use against you.

The design sits across the upper back in block capitals, so you're the last person in the room who knows what everyone behind you is reading. Front is blank. That's the point.

• Heavyweight cotton that actually feels like a real shirt
• Unisex relaxed fit, S through 4XL
• DTG print for color that doesn't bail after the first wash
• Crew neck, because that apparently needs stating
• Available in black or white

Is this actually a good gift?

If your girlfriend has a sense of humor (and you've confirmed this, not just assumed it), yes. The back print means she can't see it when she looks down, but every person behind her at the grocery store can. Give it a second. Let them work it out.

Pairs well with the front-print version if you're going for the couples move. One of you wears the joke facing forward, the other wears it facing backward. Maximum coverage.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the shirt actually say?

It says MY GIRLFRIEND IS PSYCHOTIC across the back in block capitals. The letters H, O, and T in PSYCHOTIC are printed in the base color while the rest are in red, so read just those three and it says MY GIRLFRIEND IS HOT.

Is the design on the front or the back?

Back only. The front is blank. There's a separate front-print version if you want the design where you can see it yourself.

What sizes does this come in?

S through 4XL, unisex relaxed fit.

Will the print crack or fade?

It's DTG printed, which bonds the ink into the fabric rather than sitting on top. Holds up through regular washing without cracking or peeling.

Does it come in other colors?

Black or white. The two-color print adjusts to work on both.
