@Murkrow ...or Shirtless Cowboy In Inexplicable Loincloth, as I prefer to think of him. Though the sunhat does look practical.

@Murkrow I haven’t, so thanks for the recommendation.
@Murkrow Apparently I’ve been a mataeologist all my life and never knew it until now - thanks.
You’re right though. I can think of lots of satirical replies, but none of them would be as satisfying as a swift headbutt.
@Murkrow “I am a fully qualified sesquipedalianist”.
