I've been to Jamaica a couple of times and I swear I've heard people use the term "dirty shirt" as a verb. My uncle Ken who lived in Negril for years, used the term too. #
What it means. When someone dirty shirts you, it's as if they did something that left a stain on your shirt, something obvious and not nice that everyone can see.#
Example: When my cousin sell me bad ganja he dirty shirt me man.#
But when I searched for the term on Google, or asked ChatGPT, they offered weird and wrong ideas for what the term means. #
I checked in with my friend Dave Jacobs about this, he has the same understanding of what the term means, but he couldn't find our definition anywhere on the web either. #

You know those obnoxious sites that pop up dialogs when they think you're about to leave, asking you to subscribe to their email newsletter? Well that won't do for Scripting News readers who are a discerning lot, very loyal, but that wouldn't last long if I did rude stuff like that. So here I am at the bottom of the page quietly encouraging you to sign up for the nightly email. It's got everything from the previous day on Scripting, plus the contents of the linkblog and who knows what else we'll get in there. People really love it. I wish I had done it sooner. And every email has an unsub link so if you want to get out, you can, easily -- no questions asked, and no follow-ups. Go ahead and do it, you won't be sorry! :-)
