    Still, you can expect a comeback to not be a complete offtop.

    Yes, the first phrase has a goal of embarrassing the owner of the t-shirt, but comeback in the style of “yo momma is so fat that…” is embarrassing to the giver, not to the receiver.

    Even “Can YOU name 5 songs?” would be much-much better.

      Holy shit, no it is not. This is like dousing a grease fire with water.

      If someone is coming at you with a “prove you’re a real fan” question, they’ve got friends or they’ve got a video camera. The last thing you want to do is appear desperate.
