My T should be printed with "Excel without CHANDOO is like Computer without Inetrnet"

Toga - because as large as I am, it would be a spread sheet.

Good one. Another indirect twist to this.
The t-shirt says "My spouse is with stupid" and both of you walk together. The circular reference breaks whenever someone joins you for a chat.
I'd put my left arm inside my shirt and go as the RIGHT function.
=vlookup(substitute(A2434," ",""), mytable$A$1:$A$100000,Match(A$1,table22:$2$.0),0)

I would go with my girl and have her wear a t-shirt say =index("mr. right",match("me","all guys at party",0),1) and i would wear a shirt with two cells with one saying "me" and another saying "mr. right"
I will love to wear:
I LOVE INDEX+MATCH
“I love VLookup()”
