Children's English Shirts

So, shirts with English on them are big in Korea. For the most part, they make sense except for shirts made for children. These seem to be filled with random English words or sentences. Sometimes it's not even English words, just English characters. It's fairly amusing sitting in a grade 4 class, reading these shirts that make no sense, and realizing that no one else gets that. Now, the school is fairly cold, so now that the fall has hit, there are few Tshirts for me to read, but my fiancee and the other English teachers have told me about some. Apparently their sometimes rather rude and inappropriate except that no one realizes. Here are two that I spotted last week:

ONE J BOY
MULTIPLIES
EFFECT
and:
U'R MIND FRIENDS
KEEP THE EARTH
AUTHENTIC
ZTH - 26TH
1964
LOVE GALAXY
