I'd like to think I'm somewhat easy going when it comes to Hello Kitty but this maybe the first time that I've really been offended with the use of her image. This "damn tee" should be damned for displaying Hello Kitty with Bulimia and thinking it's funny. If someone is going to do this with Hello Kitty at least make it some sort of positive message for getting help. Unfortunately it's not and the other half of me that is obsessed with Hello Kitty wants to get this shirt anyway. What the hell is wrong with me?
This is how they described their "product":
The cat is out of the bag and over the toilet. Hello kitty says goodbye to those calories by coughing up last nights supper. Who can blame her? When you are this big in Japan you've got to keep up your feline physique. Hello kitty staying pretty those flabby days are a flush away let this kitty cat binge every day.
That is so not a good message to send anyone. I know it's Hello Kitty, but please don't get this and stay strong in your beliefs. The people that sell them won't care that you're getting it because of Hello Kitty and not that you don't support bulimia. Even Hello Kitty throwing up 'cause she had drunk too much alcohol would have been preferable in my eyes. Which is really saying something, because I would never associate Hello Kitty with alcohol if I thought about it seriously.
