Retardian Angel
I'm a stand-up Comedian and I have a joke about my little brother who died and became my guardian angel. Thing is though, he had downs syndrome, which means I have a "Retardian Angel." The story of my retardian angel is one of the most recognizable parts of my act, so I thought it would be cool to have T-SHirts and things of that nature I could sell on my website or give out at shows. What I'm looking for is an image of a downs syndrome-looking angel doing something kinda goofy and cartoonish. Obviously it's open to interpretation.
Anyone with a sense of humor. Most likely, young adults.
This only thing that I really care about is that it not come across mean or too distasteful. The word 'Retardian' is going to piss off enough people as it is so I'd like the image to convey that the intent is good-natured.
