"Friday, I'm in Love" is a song by The Cure that was released in 1992. Its lyrics describe a month's worth of work weeks in which the lovelorn singer goes through woe for four days and rejoices on Friday, when all his pain is forgotten.
This clever shirt takes the lyrics from "Friday, I'm in Love" and makes a placard-style pictorial. For someone who's familiar with The Cure and this song in particular, it's a hilarious fan tribute. The abundance of user-uploaded photos from happy customers prove I'm not alone in my love of this shirt.
