In all of his explanations, dude missed the most obvious gestural analog to the “falsum”: a raised middle finger.

Part of the beauty of ⊥ is that it can exist (given more familiarity) on its own (sans rump) and thereby be easily and quickly applied (responsibly and tastefully, of course) in, oh, let’s say, ‘spontaneous situations’ where speed of application is essential.

All kidding aside, one could do his/her own shirt. Use fabric paint. Airbrushing it on is one way. Another would involve simply brushing the ⊥ on. Personally, I’d brush it on, and leave the ends of the ⊥’s two strokes ‘punkishly’ ragged; shows you mean bid-nezz!

if you are using it to refer to 45, I think that ⊥ is more ap⊥.
