Lost In Translation

So, two of the ESL students in my Tuesday seminar came traipsing in today wearing somewhat surprising clothing. Or, rather, clothing with somewhat surprising word graphics on them:

The boy was wearing a tshirt with a picture of the back of a Chevy Van 20 on it, and on the spare tire cover were the words, "BOOBS OR BUST?"

The girl had a bright red and yellow baseball hat, the front of which was boldy emblazoned with this phrase:
SEX
is a high
PERFORMANCE
thing
Eee! Now, both of these kids have some seriously rusty English, and have only been living in this country since the fall, so I'm assuming the inappropriateness of these statements sailed right over their heads.
Still... I got a kick out of it. =D
