Get your "Mr Housing Bubble" shirt!


http://www.boston.com/business/articles/2005/08/16/mr_housing_bubble_shirts_strike_chord_draw_ire/

Striking a chord with uneasy U.S. property investors, T-shirtHumor.com's latest design -- "Mr. Housing Bubble" -- has become its best seller in less than a week.

The parody of the decades-old Mr. Bubble bath foam package offers a "Free Balloon Mortgage Inside." But the smiling pink house-shaped bubble also warns: "If I pop, you're screwed."

A disclaimer at the bottom reads, "Not affiliated with Mr. Internet Bubble."

Anthony Phipps, T-shirtHumor.com communications director, said the Austin, Texas-based t-shirt design and marketing firm has sold hundreds of the $20 cotton shirts since they went on sale last week.
