An odd sentiment

Saw an interesting t-shirt today. I was in the record store, and a group of attractive young ladies was browsing in one of the aisles. One of them was wearing a t-shirt that had printed upon it:

I HATE
MY
BOYFRIEND

I thought to myself, “well, then why is he still your boyfriend?” It seems to me an unhealthy sentiment to hold, even in jest. Perhaps I’m too old to understand “the new irony”, but given how many girls I’ve known that are in, and have stayed in bad relationships, I’m not certain that it’s ironic at all.
