"Not My Type" t-shirt

I love this t-shirt that says "You're Not My Type" in 13 languages

But let's face it, the places I'd wear that shirt -- on a museum trip, at a science fiction -- "my type" of folks would quickly appear, bent over and staring at my chest to read all the lines.  So it would more or less need a skirt with "If you have read this far, the above does not apply," also in 13 languages.

I love it! And the followup insinuation.

I'm reminded of the bumper sticker: "Nice hummer. Sorry about your penis."

LOL

I like how I was trying to transliterate "You're not my type," and when I was about to make up a new word for "type" or "variety," my inner Ah'Koi Bahnis said, "Poo! What an inelegant solution that would be. Here, let me show you how it's REALLY done." I must say, I like djair solution better. :-D
