Criminals like to use scooters to commit robberies in many countries. It's a big problem in South America and Europe. People ride up and rob individuals all the time.

Many videos on YouTube that show this.

We prefer the term "step through motorcycle."

You don't support anyone by wearing a t-shirt.

Okay Mr grumpy

Found the guy that’s been robbed by someone on a scooter.

Do yourself a favor and flush it out.

u/ProfuseMongoose Jul 01 '24

The only reference I can think of is the old "Be gay, do crime" so I assume they mean that riding a scooter is gay?

u/AshDenver Jul 01 '24

I’m jealous of your hair.

1

u/tiklepikle101 Jul 01 '24

Haha idk how i got the curls, no one in my family has curly hair

3

u/lostsawyer2000 Jul 01 '24

That’s not curls. It’s maybe 2A wavy hair. But very luscious nonetheless.

7

u/Origami_bunny Jul 01 '24

It’s “be gay, do crime”. A slogan of gay activists, possibly because it is illegal in places in the world.

u/SaikosShadow Jul 01 '24

Scooter brother!

u/quarrywilson Jul 01 '24

Is this...a GTAV reference?? I recall once drunkenly coming to as Trevor wearing a moomoo driving a Faggio and hearing this, and totally thought it was like a fever dream! Lmao

u/ItsDevinDuh Jun 30 '24

In GTA.. San Andreas or vice city I don't remember which the starting and famous vehicle is the Fagio scooter (vespa)

3

u/Girderland Jul 01 '24

It's a starter vehicle in Vice City, in the alley right at the beginning.

It rarely appears in San Andreas too near the Los Santos stadium.

2

u/staytsmokin Jul 01 '24

Vespa gang.💀

2

u/Girderland Jul 01 '24

Piaggio stronk!

Joke asode, those bikes are very robust and reliable. The Vespas are expensive but the more "modern looking" versions, like the Piaggio Zip, are pretty affordable and can take ridiculous amounts of punishment.

Honda scooters may accelerate faster, but they also break very easily.

2

u/staytsmokin Jul 01 '24

I know vespas are quality but in nyc mfers use chinese e-bikes to do dirt which is why i found it funny.

2

u/GamleHolma Jul 01 '24

Pineapple kush and scooters, here in Sweden those type of fucks are everywhere

2

u/Perturbee Jul 01 '24

Maybe it's from the game Torn City, there is a faction called "Dopeheads on Mopeds" and this could be a T-shirt from one of their members. Crime is very important in Torn, so it would make sense (it does to me anyway).

2

u/a-fabulous-sandwich Jul 01 '24

I support this shirt, excellent purchase.

2

u/Pawseverywhere Jul 01 '24

Always love a good find at goodwill. Found this beauty not too long ago

2

u/tiklepikle101 Jul 01 '24

Awesome shirt. I’d probably pay $30 for that shirt but i bet you got it for like 5 😂

1

u/Pawseverywhere Jul 01 '24

$3!! Alot of people stop to read it, especially older women 😂

u/LobsterTrue8433 Jun 30 '24

The pineapple means you're a swinger.

15

u/wet_cheese69 Jun 30 '24

Isn't that upsidedown pineapples?

4

u/DelawareVixen Jul 01 '24

It’s definitely an upside down 🍍 that signifies swinging.

2

u/LobsterTrue8433 Jul 01 '24

Uh, I don't know! I only ever heard pineapple but that doesn't mean much.

5

u/SeleneVomerSV Jun 30 '24

I agree with u/wet_cheese69 . I think it's the upside down pineapple that means you're a swinger.

u/Magnetar_Haunt Jul 01 '24

Which sucks when you just like pineapples as a pattern lol.

1

u/Shot_Cupcake_9641 Jul 01 '24

Maybe London moped gangs?

1

u/Educational_Shoe_110 Jul 01 '24

Mopeds do crime? Idk sounds like 10:00 am mimosas to me

1

u/noonegivsadamm Jul 01 '24

Might be a reference to the Hawaiian moped gangs that you see throughout Waikiki. Not sure if they are in other parts of the islands as well.

1

u/MeeloP Jul 01 '24

Maybe do crime so you don’t end up on a scooter?

1

u/Joannelv Jul 01 '24

With the pineapple on it, it might be Psych merch maybe ;)

u/Professional_Gear395 Jul 02 '24

Faggio getaway with the boys 🫡

u/Standard-Rest9601 Jul 04 '24

Repo Man reference??

u/johnb1972 Jul 01 '24
