Alan, overall nice job. However, I don't understand the logic behind calling an above the knee overcoat a cocktail dress. It is just as accurate to call a longer overcoat a "long dress" as it is to call an above the knee overcoat a "cocktail dress." Perhaps ridiculous is a a better word than accurate. I prefer above the knee because I believe they look much better on a younger gentleman such as myself, but perhaps I lean more towards modern cuts.

It's a subjective and unfair digest. It's also a joke. (Also see).

That generated a lot of lols and chuckles. I do second you maintaining your Guest Editor-ship if Vox agrees

Analysis-paralysis maybe dv3?
I think its a joke - nothing more, nothing less ... you are overthinking the joke ... lol.
Edit: looks like Alan beat me to it.
