I'm one of the ones who is guilty about looking but not voting, but I have a reason for that. I am curious about the outcome, but I don't think I should vote since I won't be getting a shirt. (If the saying on it were just, "It's a fanfic thing," I would definitely buy one, but to me the second clause makes the shirt sound insulting, or at the very least condescending, toward the reader of the shirt. That's really not the image I want to convey about people who participate in any fandom.)
Joy,

Completely understand, and I kind of agree. I don't remember whether I voted for this in my choices back at 'phrase' stage. I don't think I did, but even if I did, I know it wasn't my 1st choice. That was "I'd rather live in fanfic."
I'd like to see if more people agree but, at this stage, I don't feel it's my place to change anything about the phrase, though.
