It’s an Abimotto, a (bad) pun playing with Robinson Crusoe.
His companion Friday is called Freitag in german. The Abitur takes 13 years of school (or 15 in my case), so they have been waiting 13 years for Friday (or their Abitur).
That’s an “Abi-Shirt”, a shirt designed to commemorte finishing school. Hence the “hilarious” pun ABInson Crusoe.
The secondary character in Robinson Crusoe is called Freitag in German.
So, Robinson Crusoe on his island spies a boat marked “weekend” and is thinking to himself “Finally, Friday is in sight”, alluding to pupils powering through school days impatiently looking forward to the weekend.
The tagline reads “13 years (the time it takes to reach the Abitur – if not held back) of waiting for Friday/Freitag”.
Not really a joke, just the kind of lame pun you can expect from an Abi/Shirt..
