When Self-Deprecating Humor Became the New Cool — And Why Our T-Shirts Own It

07 May 2025

There was a time when people wore tees with bold motivational quotes: “Dream Big.” “Hustle Hard.” “Born to Win.”
Now? The coolest guy in the room is wearing:
“Half Boiled Engineer” or
“Naa plan ki BOKKA paddadi!” 👀

So what changed?

Let’s be real — life isn’t a motivational poster. It’s a messy, meme-worthy rollercoaster of awkward interviews, cancelled Goa plans, and exam results that shock even your enemies.

In this glorious chaos, self-deprecating humor has become our armor.
Why fake perfection when you can say, “Yep, I failed... in style.”


Lafantar = Confidently Clueless

At Lafantar, we celebrate the kind of humor that comes from accepting your flaws and roasting yourself first.
We’re not here to make you look like a billionaire.
We’re here to make you laugh when your life is a bankruptcy of good decisions.

Whether it’s:

Our t-shirts say what you want to say… but funnier.


Why This Humor Wins Today:


Final Thought:

Self-deprecating humor isn’t about being negative.
It’s about owning your story — the weird, wild, WTF parts of it — and turning them into comedy gold.

And if that story fits on a T-shirt? Even better.
That’s Lafantar for you — funny, flawed, and 100% real.
