Frequently Asked Questions

What does "stingy" mean?

The tight-grip branch — counts every dollar twice, splits the check to the penny, never forgets a loan. Stingy is cheap with a reputation; the family cheapskate, crowned.

Is "stingy" an insult or a compliment?

It's the roast the whole table already tells — said with love and laughter, worn the same way. The stingy ones know exactly who they are; the shirt just makes it official.

What makes this a good gift?

The perfect gag gift — for the frugal, or for the cousin who Venmo-requests you for ice. It's the table joke made wearable; they'll pretend to be mad and wear it to dinner.

Where can I wear this?

Dinners out, reunions, holidays — anywhere the check gets split. Maximum effect at the restaurant table, right when the bill lands.

How should I style this?

Whatever you already own — why buy new clothes for the occasion. The shirt does the joking; the rest of the fit is whatever was in the closet.

Every Statement Has a Cultural Source

Street Talk Designs is rooted in documented hip-hop and urban street language. OG Randy, born and raised in Brooklyn, spent years documenting the language of the culture in Street Talk: Da Official Guide To Hip-Hop and Urban Slanguage. Some designs use documented slang; others draw from the broader cultural territory of humor, family, faith, personality, and everyday expression.
