Mrs. Alex Rodriguez's fashion sense (or lack thereof) has even stirred up the emotions of a hipster brand! Neighborhoodies has created a "No, F--- You, C-Rod" shirt. (Disclosure: Neighborhoodies sells Gothamist t-shirts.) Here's the description:
Outraged by A-Rod’s wife’s use of her freedom of speech right towards our sometimes lovable third-baseman? You can now express your feelings with this hot new tee rebutting C-Rod's shirt. With the pressed words “No, Fuck You, C-Rod” in Gothic, stay cool and convey your anger through your clothing.Now, we're not sure if hipsters know who Alex Rodriguez or Cynthia Rodriguez are, but kudos to Neighborhoodies' Michael de Zayas, who is clearly thinking about ways to expand his market. He has three nice quotes in the Post:
1) "This is a tacky shirt in response to a tacky shirt."Acknowledgment of tackiness - check. Implicit praise of the Post - check. Shamless self-promotion - check check! And our suggestion about a good graphic: Derek Jeter's head - there are tons of possibilities with his Kid 'n Play hair.
2) "We saw The Post, and we realized here's a shirt begging to be one-upped."
3) "It's a shame that someone would spend $70 to be so crass - when you can do it for $20 at Neighborhoodies.com."
Still, the Neighborhoodies shirt isn't safe-for-Yankees-Stadium. Maybe Neighborhoodies can include blank labels so customers can bleep it out.

hipsterdummies it should say 'no fuck you media whores'.
whoever wears this shirt is a fucking tard. Seriously, it's like those "Mr. Pibb and red vines are delicious" shirts. Some popular culture topic that some hipster decided to exploit. The only thing is that the window frame for wearing these things is like 2.8 seconds. It's over already. Just wear a batman logo tshirt and save yourself some humiliation hipsters.
who cares about this crap??? no really who??
Why are we still hearing about this story?
Cynthia's shirt looks better. Look at the difference in fonts.
the hipster one is too busy and cluttered.
being a native NY'er, I've never heard of Mr. Pibbs or Red vines. I'm assuming it's a LA thing.
We have Dr. Pepper and Twizzlers.
I'm a native new yorker too and Red Vines are all over the place. Mr. Pibb is more upstate but you can get in the city
Since when were Red Vines available everywhere?
Guess all my candy stores were in the ghetto.
must be a suburban thing then. of course, you can get mr. pibbs, it's the hipster market as poster number 2 mentioned. I'm just saying when, where?
now? last year? 30 years ago?
this is just further proof that gothamist is going downhill. i mean, just check out the dictionary definition for "gothamist". i think that says it all..
A-Rod was a total bitch for cheating on his wife. Totally deserved it.
>A-Rod was a total bitch for cheating on his wife. Totally deserved it.
So was the dry cleaner on 85th street but why didn't gothamist print that? get a life.....
It's a shame that that font's C looks like a G. Aye G-Rod!
We're still hearing about this story because Michael de Zayas emailed Gothamist begging to have a little press thrown his way so that the "hipsters" he continues to believe are his target demographic will throw down big money on an American Apparel shirt stamped with letters an unpaid intern cut.
Hooray, Gothamist, for participating in this inane promotional attempt!
we are hearing about it because the ny post covered it before gothamist did.
This is definitely the sign that hipsterism is dead and buried. RIPieces poor little hipster fucktards!
