​I found these T-shirts on sale at a truck stop while driving from L.A. to San Francisco over the weekend. At first I thought they were video game knockoff T-shirts -- then I read the fine print.

As you can see, the truck stop had fans of both major video game franchises covered:

They even have a T-shirt for those who play actual instruments. Gotta love the pun:

And finally, the Christian reappropriation of Ronnie James Dio's 'devil horns' (which Dio didn't mean to have anything to do with the devil). Regardless, note the crucifix wound on figurative Christian rocker's wrist:

The middle of the state is a strange place.
