I've seen it all now. Please tell me that decal mod wasn't done with magic markers. It's a good job I'm reading this in bed because I would definitely have fallen over otherwise.

I'm surprised you can even tell them apart.

They're virtually identical, aren't they?

I would say he IS a master at that and in fact this is probably the most accurate part of the whole ad!

And I would say both of these are apt... I bet you a Knoplet custom he wears sandals with socks :)

Oh hell ... you mean that, on cold winter's evenings, I can be accurately described as both [i]slipshod [/i][u][b]and [/b][/u][i]obsolete[/i]?

Vicious, but fair.

Haha, I think its referring to the use of the expression. Although....

[i][b]obs, [url="http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/obsolete"]obsolete[/url][/b][/i] — No longer in use, and no longer likely to be understood. [i]Obsolete[/i] is a stronger term than [i][url="http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Appendix:Glossary#archaic"]archaic[/url][/i], and a much stronger term than [i][url="http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Appendix:Glossary#dated"]dated[/url][/i].

Does this fit?
