We have seen the future, and it isn't working...

This article in today's Trib reveals that the parent company of Abercrombie and Fitch (or as it's known in the Lair of the Sloth, Grababootie and Pinch) is suing the parent of American Eagle over the use of the number '22' on their clothing, claiming that people associate the number '22' with A&F.

Uh....I associate a few numbers with A&F, like '15' (the average age of people wearing it), '3' (the average length of material used to make their girls' shorts) and '39' (the typical price of one of their 'washed out' mini-t-shirts or their threadbare short shorts).

I associate '22' with my new surrogate son, Mark Prior, who is announcing his own counter-suit against A&F. Go get 'em, boy! Woof-woof! Snarrrrl!
