Sure the chicks are hot, but did anyone else notice that crazy lookin dude behind them to the right that is possibly wearing an afro wig, face paint and some sort of makeshift cape? And of course his gaze is fixated in the right place, unlike myself.

I remember when Duracell bunnies were, well...bunnies. Pink, plushy, and banging a pair of cymbals.

Wait, that came out funny.

I was going to say that the afro dork was an Argentinian soccer team fan, but then realized the flag design is different.

It must be another of those male-supremacy countries, where female eye-candy is mandatory at all public events.

Do they have a hatch or slot battery compartment?

Can they fit extra big batteries?

Do long is their play duration before they fall into sleep mode?

Are they easy to wake up from sleep mode?

That was exactly the joke I was going to make last night. But in the interest of taste, I opted not to. Well done.

Nothing salacious about the comment. Simply a matter of simple fact that you can correlate redhead with copper top.

Apparently. I'll blame my tiredness and the bit of alcohol in me for passing up the opportunity to let loose with that gem.
