Years back @ work, it was a casual day, I wore my beavis & butthead shirt. I didn't know our Baker & Taylor rep was coming that day. I'll never forget her going "really, Beavis & Butthead?" and it became a stay at home shirt ever since. Can I wear it to work now since B&T is out of business? #libsky
