1. A friend and I made fun of those all the time.

The one I hated most was "Second Place Means First Loser. No Fear."

Always thought of it as typical Republican gear. Obnoxious and mean-spirited. But, since we were young, lots of younguns were wearing it thinking they were bad ass.

2. wow that was 10 years ago wasn't it?

Maybe "not so long" in geological terms, though.

7. Yeah, that was my point when I posted this.....

unfortunately, I used to think (even 10 years ago?) that the people you saw wearing that junk, were at the point in their lives where they usually (naturally) feared everything at that point (becoming an adult, sexuality, moving away from their parents, making a living for themselves, education decisions)....it was "tough talk" only.

6. What about "Bad Boyz Club"?

I still see thaose obnoxious stickers on cars. Probably high school students, but I still shake my head and mutter "punk" under my breath when ever I pass one.

8. I had a No Fear shirt

It said "Know your limits. Break them. No Fear." I was in high school. I really thought that it was inspirational. What's wrong with that?

11. "No Fear" has nothing on "Boca" and "B.U.M. Equipment"...

...or is that just a regional thing?
