Who is this man?

bless u money skelet

He's actually a drop out from Waterloo (where I happen to live).

No, it should be written "You are reading my shirt" you pair of fucking morons.
I bet you're the type of people to say "I was just sat there, doing whatever" rather than "I was just sitting there, doing whatever".
Learn English, and stop embarrassing yourselves.

Actually, you weren't too offensive, so my apologies to you for calling you a fucking moron.

Are you actually retarded?

It's describing what you just did, in the past tense.

"You (just moments ago) read my t-shirt."

The shirt goes on to exclaim that the aforementioned act of having one's t-shirt read is sufficient social interaction for the day.

I seriously hope you're just trolling at this point. I can't believe I just typed all that out. What the fuck.

No, when you ate reading the t-shirt, it is no past-tense, you fucking spastic. If Vitalik then said to you, "You read my t-shirt", that would be the correct tense, or, if he turned around and had written on the back "You read the front of my t-shirt", that would also be correct. For it to be "read" in the past tense while the person is reading it is incorrect.
I don't come here to educate morons, so next time I will invoice you for my time (or your mom can hire me to tutor you--I accept cash, BTC and blow jobs).

*are

*not past tense
Fuck phone posting.

By the time your brain interprets the meaning of the sentence the act of reading is already complete.

Furthermore, one could argue that even if you read it slowly by the time you get to the word "read" you've already read the word "you" and so the statement is still correct.

Shoo shoo gains goblin
