Just Rub Some Dirt on It Shirt – Gen X Humor Tee

A Gen X humor shirt featuring “Just Rub Some Dirt on It.” Tough-love, nostalgic, and childhood wisdom themed.

Just rub some dirt on it.

You’re fine.

This Gen-X humor shirt captures the iconic tough-love response to childhood injury — scraped knees, bruised egos, and zero fuss. The phrase lands instantly for anyone raised on resilience over reassurance.

It reads nostalgic rather than harsh, celebrating the grit and independence that defined an era of low-intervention parenting. The tone feels blunt, familiar, and affectionately tough.

Knee scraped.
Tears brief.
Back outside.
