Egad, sir! It was not intended to overshadow, but to grind into the dust said one liner, or at least the very premise upon which you base its eligibility for to invoke Beau Peep Notice Board Memorandum and Articles, specifically 3.1.
Rasp!
Dear oh dear. Clearly there is some confusion amongst “
other” members of the BPNB, perhaps lacking the ability to see true genius [unless slapped in the face by said genius whilst a voice yells “
Hello, I’m genius”]. Therefore I have prepared a suitable deconstruction of the brilliant one liner into its major components, thus enlightenment awaits.
Let’s look at it first in its entirety:
“
You know, you wouldn't suffer from decompression sickness so often if you made your diving suit out of something other than girls' blouses.”
Firstly it’s informative, especially to divers. For those not familiar with the diver species, these are generally poor swimmers who like to pretend that sinking to the bottom of a swimming pool, ocean or sea is their own idea, rather than accepting it is actually natural selection trying to correct a mistake. “
Ah! But what of the paraphernalia divers don before sinking?” I hear you cry...
Let me digress to respond to this question. Firstly the air tank or tanks [depending on how delusional the individual diver is], are clearly a physical manifestation of “
the weight of the world” the diver mistakenly believes “
is resting on his or her shoulders”.
The “
wet” suit is simply an indication of the desperately perceived need of the diver to return to the womb.
The flippers provide a convenient explanation for “
walking a bit funny” although most divers fail to realise this “
funny walk” does not appear to change on removal of said flippers. The few divers fortunate enough to figure this out [infinite monkeys etc] can frequently be found wearing flippers in none diving situations, around the house for example, which is justified as “
practice” and fools no-one.
Finally the mask, which is indicative of someone who clearly read too many Dick Turpin novels as a child.
Returning to the prize winning one liner. Its clever inclusion of "
girls blouses" is inspired, clearly these are unsuitable as diving wear, and yet the line provides [to those of a sufficient intellect] sufficient information to allow the reader to imagine a wet suit which was
made of girls blouses. Simply brilliant.
I trust this deconstruction will put to an end postings which clearly reek of competitive jealousy, only some are called, live with it and comfort yourself in an appropriate manner [legal, moral and none sexual]. You’re welcome. Do I have too much time on my hands? Probably.
