Runway T-shirts

I literally have the body of a God! Unfortunately, it’s Buddha…

I’m pretty sure that Buddha technically isn’t a god. And, in fact, I’m pretty sure God doesn’t actually have a body. So perhaps this t-shirt is a moot point. Whatever the case, it certainly appears to the lowest common denominator. I certainly got a chuckle out of it.

Now, to spoil everyone’s fun, the real Buddha almost certainly wasn’t a fatty.

Buddha means “one who has achieved a state of perfect enlightenment” and there are several people who have been given the title. The original Buddha, Siddhartha Gautama, lived from around 560BC to 480BC, but it was not until around 127 BC that statues actually depicting him became prevalent. Of course, by then, nobody knew what he really looked like. He was from a noble family, and althought he had been described as tall, slender, and of “manly build” (a lot like me, in fact) he may have grown in girth simply because that is what people expected “Nobles” to look like.

Well what do you know? You might actually learned something today. And from a comedy t-shirt website of all places…

I feel so dirty!
