Recently, I posted an article about Buzz Marketing, a way to create buzz, or be talked about. Actually I could even add that buzz marketing is in a way a synonym of link bait.

The fact that you say something very opinonated or something shocking that goes against others thoughts, creates discussion. In the blogging world, it can be very fast to get backlinks, or comments. Don’t be affraid to read some bad things about you, it’s part of the game, but you can always explain your feelings in further posts.

Today I posted about a t-shirt I saw on Crack Smokin’ T-shirts, here is the pattern :

Crack Smokin’ T-Shirts title says “Funny and Offensive T-Shirts That Get Attention“. This is some kind of buzz marketing. If you know buzz marketing, you know how to stand out from the crowd.

This is not the most offensive T-Shirt you can see on their website but it gets you the idea. (Yeah I have seen the one that says “ASS, the other vagina”).

Don’t you have ever seen someone with a special T-Shirt and say to your friend : hey, have you seen his t-shirt, or just try to read the message, then smile or laugh.

It reminds me the Graspop Metal Meeting (Hey Metalheads !), there was a T-shirt selling there, the message was : I used to be schizophrenic, but we’re okay now. There are also t-shirts were the message starts in the front and ends in the back.

I even saw a guy without any T-Shirt, he just got written on his back : I’m single and I want to Fuck ! Quite straight to the point. I don’t know if he got what he wanted but I’m sure everyone read his back.

Here are some funny t-shirts messages you could try to modify for some of your articles titles and see if you get attention :

• Tell your boobs to quit staring at my eyes.
• I may be bald but I’ll never have a bad hairday.
• Therapy is expensive, beer is cheap. What to do ? What to do ?
• If I gave a shit, you’d be the first person I’d give it to.
• Everyone needs to believe in something, I believe I’ll have another beer.
• SMILE, if you’re not wearing any underwear.
• I’m not totally useless, I can be used as a bad example.
• Yesterday, I quit drinking !
• Your face and my ass could be twins !
• I’m multi talented, I can talk and piss you off at the same time.
• No school, no job, no problem.
• I am not as think as you drunk I am.
• Front : Sex isn’t the answer. Back : Sex is the Question and YES is the answer !
• War is not about who is right, but about who is left.
• DAMN RIGHT, I’M GOOD IN BED ! I can sleep all day !
• Front : I am not schizophrenic ! Back : Neither Am I !
• KEEPREADINGTHISTSHIRTWHILEICHECKOUTYOURTITS
• Your lips keep moving but all I hear is “Blah, Blah, Blah”
• I live in my own little world, but that’s OK, they know me here.
• NEVER KNOCK ON HEAVENS DOOR……. Ring The Bell Then Run (He Hates That)

I could add more but that’s fine… Okay just one more, just for fun (you can addy our own message in comments if you want )
