You would think that, in the far distant future, we will have overcome the danger of posing in a jaunty and insouciant fashion, only to have an unfortunate placement of equipment that causes us to look ridiculous.

- "Muwaa ha ha, I have conquered the native savages with my advanced technology!"

Both the outfit and the spaceship are pretty goofy looking. Perhaps they have to conquer because they got kicked off their own planet for crimes against good taste.

Great camouflage... If you're trying to infiltrate the Carnival in Rio.

I keep seeing that as "Barroom." The guys passed out at his feet, the elaborate costume with odd things in embarrassing places, I'm thinking it's a special kind of barroom.

Rather an odd location to carry one's powder horn....

>6 Hammy_JLK: Not to mention the horn's inserted in the opposite direction from which one might expect!

@MrsLee: It does! Maybe that's to illustrate the "first sexual encounter" @paradoxosalpha mentions in his/her review?
