<p>I don’t get ticked off or snicker (I know you ment some attitudes, but I wanted to clarify myself :p). I just wanted to talk about this urge I suddenly developed when I saw his T-SHIRT. It’s weird.</p>
<p>I get it if you walk into a foreign country and the people there are fascinated with your HYPS status but I really don’t get the fascination of american kids with HYPS kids.</p>
<p>Plenty of people wear clothing with college logos other than their own—for example, college sports fans. Just look at all the Notre Dame and UT-Austin Longhorns fans who wear those schools’ apparel, even if they’re not students, alumni, or relatives of students. I don’t see what the big deal is, unless someone is claiming that they went to a school they didn’t actually attend while wearing the shirt.</p>
<p>Sorry, but I can’t relate to this at all. Where I’m from, people from the most prestigious universities don’t wear that uni’s sweatshirt. Apparently it’s a fashion faux pas, <em>rolls eyes.</em></p>
<p>^ It’s probably a US thing.</p>
<p>^ I guess it is. But students wear their high school’s t-shirts more.</p>
