We often make that joke "You want to swim to there, what are we peasants?"
 
I just didn't think "peasants" was used much. Guess I'm wrong.
 
"Peasants" sucks the humor out because everyone knows CCRs and DPVs are disgustingly expensive... even more so than diving already is. It makes it sound like you're flexing how rich you are. A shirt that says "HA HA I MAKE MORE THAN YOU" is not really funny.

Any other phrasing of "for losers" "for suckers" etc. gives the shirt a less gross vibe. But I still wouldn't buy the shirt and tend to mildly lose respect for people I see wearing such dorky dive shirts unironically.


I would wear a CCR re-imagining of this shirt though:

As to the accusations of "no sense of humor"... it appears that the majority of posters here are using their quite keenly developed senses of humor to sense a distinct lack of humor.
