That bit in the film where the passenger in a hurry suddenly asks the cab-driver to pull over and wait... :

Why do they always talk about this guy called Demeter, and how would *that* keep him running anyway ?#MisunderstandingFilmTropes#Homophones

If a knee-sleeve were, as the uninvited advert suggests, 'ground-breaking', wouldn't one have fallen v. heavily ?#CrapAdverts

If they *thought* that 'prosthetic' was a better buzz-word (than 'prostate'), or that different ages would attract more attention, be sure that the same tips about paper-clips, knitting-needles, knotting or clamping would suddenly be applicable...#CrapAdverts pic.twitter.com/TpvMJ33AJQ

'The human brain holds a lot of [pieces of information ?], most of them [sic] are from what we learned in grade school'

Er, I think that he thinks that we'll think that this trashy video :

1) Isn't worse than Johnson's 'oven-ready deal' thing that won him* 12/12/2019,

2) Any other Sunak cringe-moments, and

3) Depicts a hard-working mensch-of-a-guy, with his sleeves rolled up, saving us all !

Even in context, Cypher (Joe Pantoliano) knows that the steak that he's about to taste isn't real :https://t.co/PavsEITtqH

Not for the first time, one's unsure of claims about the product's USP, but, here, it may be :

a) One's luggage hovers in the green countryside,

b) Spectral birds of the air venerate it, and

c) It creates a similarly curious map-outline around a nearby tree ?#CrapAdverts pic.twitter.com/L6M4cE7UiM

This time :

1) As when strangers call you by name, after a conference, because you're still wearing your badge but

2) With 'the benefit' that people are also craning *their* neck to stare at your chest#AlwaysOnDuty

No doubt this is *intended to be* a promise of excellence and satisfaction...

But could it also be read differently - as a veiled threat... ?
