    "Yes, dear. Of course I'm going to store the engine hoist in the kitchen. Where else? It's incredibly handy, and very important for safely frying all kinds of things. See, it fits in nicely, right next to the parts washer. Now, which drawer is the baling wire in?"

    Thanks Mike, I'm sure Fire Marshall Bill approves!

    This sure beats Tom Hanks' Maserati in that episode of Busom Buddies where they are stranded in the mountain cabin. It didn't even have a tape deck.

    "it sure as hell ain't gonna be the fat guy in the diaper."

    First: Thong, not diaper.

    Second: Take a good look at the angle of that truck. Not only is it on one back wheel, but it looks about one half-second away from rolling onto its roof. By contrast, the sumo wrestler is upright and has a firm footing.

    There is also no driver in the cab, which means that no gas or brakes or any control whatsoever is being applied to the truck. The wheels don't appear to be spinning. We're not even sure the engine is on; the headlamps may have simply been left on.

    Any way I look at it, this is an easy victory for the sumo wrestler. The t-shirt captures the moments before the truck's embarrassing defeat. #tshirts

    @bmoreDLJ: Let me lend some expertise, I used to know someone who wrestled semi-competitively in high school.

    The remotely controlled truck is about to lay on the gas with the diff locked. This will send the grounded wheel forward under an unsuspecting opponent who is precariously leaned in.

    The sumo wrestler will be flipped to the mat and the truck will have sufficient momentum to regain traction and make another move. #tshirts

    @bmoreDLJ: The splattery viewable inside the windshield (reminiscent of the Aussie exploding diaper advert) suggests to me that the hidden driver has accepted the inevitable defeat. #tshirts
