I’m thinking of starting a business (online of course), of T-shirts with the acronym IYKYK and underneath an image. For example: this one.
Now somehow Andy Warhol was able to use Campbell’s soup to make art, so I should be able to take this image, or purchase a can and photograph it myself, and paste in a T-shirt right?
If you know you know.
In this case, Calumet Baking Powder was always displayed behind the characters in The Shining.
This, some have said, is an accident. Perhaps it is. They stocked the cooler with items that would be found in a hotel kitchen and probably moved them around for whatever scene they were shooting. But earlier in the movie it was also noted that the hotel was built on an ancient Indian burial ground. So paranoid types and just Kubrick fans, love to comb these movies for every little detail and come up with a meaning and I don’t even think they’re necessarily wrong. Kubrick knew what he was doing and it just isn’t an accident that Danny’s sweater references the rumor that Kubrick was hired to film a fake moon landing.
But then I’d have to think about other IYKYK things and I can’t, off the top of my head. Maybe there’s a web site. Probably there is. Still, how hard can it be to get into the T-shirt business.

From the top, Fist fucking bottom in leather gear, (gay, not movies), the soap Tyler Durdan and Jack made to finance their fight club in “Fight Club.” The shirts of Ennis DelMar and Jack Twist, hung together, and a postcard of Brokeback Mountain where they had their affair multi-year affair. Jack Twist’s shirt is tucked under Ennis’s. Represents both what they had and what they didn’t have — or couldn’t have.
