Arnold Schwarzenegger Wears "I Survived Maria" T-Shirt

Um, hardy har?
Arnold Schwarzenegger recycled an old gag T-shirt while exercising in Santa Monica on Sunday. As the photo (originally at TMZ) shows, the former California governor and actor, 64, donned a shirt that read "I survived Maria" on the back; on the front of the shirt the dates "2007-2010" appear, but "2007" is crossed out, replaced with "1977."

"Maria" would be Maria Shriver, his wife of 25 years, whom he began dating back in 1977. He and 55-year-old Shriver, of course, are headed for divorce following his admission of a secret 13-year-old love child with former housekeeper Mildred "Patty" Baena.
But Schwarzenegger's choice of T-shirt wasn't quite as cruel as it sounds. TMZ reports that he received the clothing item last November during a farewell party for the Governor's staff; Shriver's employees actually designed the T-shirt as a joke, writing in the "1977" date themselves.

And, despite the shocking drama, the former couple (they announced their split this May) are on good terms as they work through their divorce. Last month the pair banded together last month as their youngest son Christopher, 13, was hospitalized following a serious surfing accident.
The family -- which also includes son Patrick, 17, and daughters Katherine, 21, and Christina, 19 -- was also all together for a lunch in honor of the patriarch's July 30 birthday.
Tell Us: Is Arnold's T-shirt insensitive?
Tell Us What You Think
69What do you expect. He cant stand the divorce, it hurts him, he has lost, so thats the only way out. Lowering himself to ground level. He has lost people's respect not by cheating but by wearing that nasty T-Shirt..Yaaaak
I used to adore him. My father idolized him in the muscle magazines from the 70's he was amazing. I find him deplorable now. A total insult to his entire family and especially his children. Karma is waiting.
Arnold himself is the insentive - tshirt be damned. The entire relationship with Maria was just a joke without truth being shared.
i dont even want to read this ARTICTLE WHAAAAAAT ? words fail me..
Gina Jennings, all I can say is WOW!!! Really low class, Arnold. Truthfully, I always thought of Arnold as a misfit in the Kennedy clan.
He knew people would misconstrue what the shirt really meant. It's all plublisity, anything that will draw attention to him. He is not the man we all thought he was. I feel for Maria and all the children. This is very insensitive of him to everyone!
of course it is insensitive.. it shows who he is as a person.

He is a disgusting pig but karma and the big C will soon catch up to his azz from all the steriods he took as a former body builder. We dooooon't liiiike yoooooooooou Arrrrrrnie!!!!!
No respect for his kids first off. Disrespecting their mother like that is very rude on his part and I am sure his kids will rally to moms defense and the idiot will regret the choice of that shirt
SOOOO LOSER, JUST WHEN WE (THE VOTERS) BELIEVE YOU COULDN'T "OUTDO" YOURSELF IN THE "WORLD'S DUMBEST CHEATERS", YOU STEP RIGHT UP AND ABSOLUTELY REINFORCE WHAT OUR "BROKEN FOR MARIA" HEARTS ALREADY KNOW...YOU NOT ONLY HAVE NOOOOOOO CLASS, BUT ARE "CLUELESS" TO JUST EXACTLY HOW FAR DOWN THE "RABBIT HOLE" YOU HAVE FALLEN ALICE!! TAKE A HINT FROM YOUR "FELLOW ADULTERER" JESSE JAMES...KNOW WHEN "NOT TOO"!! YOU ARE NOT MAKING ANY POINTS AS FAR AS "PUBLIC APPEAL" GOES AND AMERICA DOESN'T HAVE YOUR BACK DUDE!! PERSONALLY, I'M SITTING BACK...WAITING...WONDERING WHAT'S REALLY GOING ON BEHIND ALL OF THOSE "CLOSED" MALE GATHERINGS UP AT THE 'OL COMPOUND!! OHHH...TO BE A FLY ON THE WALL!! YOU'LL BE LUCKY TO BE THE HELPER OF THE SANITATION MAN when the dust settles!! If "REALITY" fails you "STILL"...please allow an intelligent, educated, and informed AMERICAN woman to share with you a small bit of history...The "CLASS" Ms. Shriver possesses comes by "lineage". Generations and generations of bloodline true superior genetics! A "LINEAGE" you are familiar with "TOUCHING" by "proxy" (not possessing) when you, BY THE GRACE OF GOD married (COMPLETELY OUT OF YOUR LEAGUE)our American sweetheart, Maria (Kennedy) Shriver. A MARRIAGE YOU WERE BLESSED with inspite of the fact most of us had an extremely difficult time picturing you as "KENNEDY" MATERIAL!! A fact you and time proved the Kennedy family wasted "good money" grooming you, but it was about Maria's happiness not you!! A "GREAT "AMERICAN" or "POSITIVE ROLE MODEL" you cannot make from an "ignorant,untrainable,ungrateful steroided robot" which so chooses and bites the hand that feeds him!!! If by some "freak of nature" you actually survive (hypothetically speaking of course)what is strategically, detail by detail, writing, rewriting, (like the "knights of Camelot" at the round table) until...each and every minute detail is synchronized and the PERFECTLY APPLICABLE "REACTIONS TO YOUR ACTIONS" have revealed themselves!! (Freshman Physics steroid brain)The "Law of Consequences", along with the plain truth...THEY ARE THE KENNEDY'S!! even you can't honestly be so ignorant and blind to JUST HOW DEEP THE "RABBIT HOLE" DOWN WHICH YOU HAVE FALLEN ACTUALLY IS ALICE??? HMMM...I THINK NOT!!! Even you can figure out which numbers add up to ZERO!!! YOU HAVE BEEN TERMINATED!!:)
Insensitive does not begin to describe Arnold's behavior! He is a totally disgusting ASS!
1. It's funny. People need to get over it. 2. Look at the shape he's in! He is seriously training for his Hollywood comeback. I for one can't wait. 3. Wow. His son looks just like him. 4. Maria is one scary looking old bad lady.
It's a t-shirt get over yourselves.
Well said Jamie Bell Fair. The shirt was insensitive AND hilarious!
Yes, the shirt is insensitive, but it is hilarious!
I am no fan of Arnolds, but I doubt Maria was easy to live with. This is high school stuff.
Schwarzenegger is an @ss.
Maria's shirt said "I'll be back NOT"
deushy move.
