When you look at the shirt normally, it appears to say, "Hate," but look at its mirror image, and it displays "Love." This [ambigramic t-shirt](http://www.madeindesign.co.uk/prod-Psyshirt-hate-Pa-Design-refpa85t1h.html) reveals that no matter how icy you try to act, you're really a loving softie at heart.

This reminds me of [witches and evil entities](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vampire-slayer-collection) in movies who look beautiful and real life, but when they go under moonlight, or encounter a mirror, their true nature shows.

The only difference is that Rachel Pfleger's Psy-shirts transform to reveal a positive message! It's available from [Made in Design](http://www.madeindesign.co.uk/prod-Psyshirt-hate-Pa-Design-refpa85t1h.html) for £16.58 or about $32.92.
