The popular website Reddit served as a drawing board for a little fun at AL.com commenters' expense, spurred by a post on a Huntsville Reddit thread.

Etsy shop owner Kerry Komai jumped at the opportunity to make a shirt with a design that another Reddit user proposed.

As a result, the $20 shirt was born.

It's all in good fun, according to Komai, who ships the shirts from Madison.

"I've been an AL.com reader for a long time, and I have a love/hate relationship with the comments (as do many of my friends,)" said Komai.

"The intelligent, supportive, open-minded ones often surprise me and make me proud to live in this state, but inevitably I'll read some bigoted, narrow-minded drivel from someone whose strong suit isn't grammar. That's the type that reminds me that I have to limit my comment-reading time!"

Thus, the shirt was born.

She said that she hoped the shirt was well-received by AL.com folks and commended the staff.

"I think AL.com does a great job of covering the news, especially news that's relevant to Alabamians, and I hope the rest of your colleagues appreciate the joke," Komai told AL.com Friday.
