When I was growing up in Flint, Michigan, that is the only Flint-centric thing I remember anyone saying. Flintoids Forever! People who are from Flint tend to have a weirdly strong loyalty to it, myself included. But to be honest, it's not the easiest place to have a pride-filled slogan about. What are we supposed to say? Flint! It's where Bob Eubanks was spawned! Or how about Flint: we make cars, or we used to, anyway! Or how about Flint, remember when we had that awesome sit-down strike?
There are people out there trying their best to come up with something better.
There are those that celebrate...our area code.
Hey, why not? It's a DAMN FINE area code!
There are those that celebrate...our population!
This one makes me strangely nostalgic for some reason.
There are those that celebrate...the fact that we live in a place shaped like an appendage!
It's us and Italy, yo. Do people from Italy point at their legs to show where they live?
But a lot of them? Are like this.
Or like this...
And my personal favorite.
I so totally need this one. It's SO ME.
Flintoids Forever!
I'm out,

Are there no t-shirts celebrating Michael Moore? Isn't he from there? Maybe?
Or would there be a baseball cap celebrating him instead?
haha, that last T shirt was awesome.
Be careful now, youre slowly but surely revealing more about yourself!
You used to call Flint "the midwest" for the longest time ever!
Us Wisconnies totally use the hand thing too....
Love those shirts. I like the gun one best. ;)
Ba ha ha ha, I like the second last one. Maybe I'll get one made for Moncton.
I love your potential slogans! You are just too damn funny.
As a former Flintoid myself, I really appreciated those shirts! Did you see Semi Pro?
