People in Moldovan villages often buy their working clothes (for when they work in the fields or their gardens) in second hand shops which import the clothes from Western Europe and the US. It often gets funny, I wrote about it once in this entry.

Today I met one of the village's grannies on her way back from the village shop wearing a long-sleeve t-shirt with "Bros before hoes" on it in huge letters.

I laughed out loud when I saw her.

It was great. I had to laugh out loud when I saw her though.

I am always super careful with local grannies. Everyone is.

it is one of those websites where you can buy t-shirts, cups, etc with whatever you want written on them (among other stuff designed by its users). I have never used it.
Here is what a quick "bros before hoes t-shirt" produced for me there, ha ha:

I'm so sad that there's no picture of this! But it's pretty darn awesome :)

Yes, I do not post pictures of people from the village or people I know here. Likewise, I am OK being hunted in the street and posted publicly by strangers with a camera but would not expect people I know to post my pictures. I feel it is not a "fair hunt" when people give you access to their lives themselves. But in the street, between strangers all is fair game ). I saw some embarrassingly hilarious pictures of myself posted on flickr a couple of weeks ago and had a good laugh. Whoever "hunted" me was good ).
