A T-shirt is one of the two shirts, the other being the Hawaiian shirt. A +0 T-shirt does not improve your armor class. T-shirts can be read.

Reading T-shirts

Reading a T-shirt will display a message. The message is dependent on the item's object ID, so it should remain consistent for any one T-shirt.[1] If the shirt is eroded, some of the text might be altered, just as an engraving would be.[2]

T-shirt messages

"I explored the Dungeons of Doom and all I got was this lousy T-shirt!"
"Is that Mjollnir in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?"
"It's not the size of your sword, it's how #enhance'd you are with it."
"Madame Elvira's House O' Succubi Lifetime Customer"
"Madame Elvira's House O' Succubi Employee of the Month"
"Ludios Vault Guards Do It In Small, Dark Rooms"
"Yendor Military Soldiers Do It In Large Groups"
"I survived Yendor Military Boot Camp"
"Ludios Accounting School Intra-Mural Lacrosse Team"
"Oracle(TM) Fountains 10th Annual Wet T-Shirt Contest"
"Hey, black dragon!  Disintegrate THIS!"
"I'm With Stupid -->"
"Don't blame me, I voted for Izchak!"
"Don't Panic"
"Furinkan High School Athletic Dept."
"Hel-LOOO, Nurse!"

History

The extra T-shirt messages were added in NetHack 3.4.0 from a patch by Scott Bigham. Previously, the only messages were[3]:

"I explored the Dungeons of Doom, and never did any laundry..."
if hallucinating and currently wearing the T-shirt
"I explored the Dungeons of Doom, and couldn't find my way out"
if hallucinating and not currently wearing the T-shirt
"I explored the Dungeons of Doom, but all I got was this lousy T-shirt"
otherwise
