Army intelligence...

Recruitment advert for the Territorial Army:




So the way to "get the message out" is with a billboard. On top of a mountain. In the middle of nowhere.

In thick fog.


(Of course, by reproducing this advert, I am helping to "get the message out", but only after adding sarky comments. I can't imagine that's what they wanted.)

Can we add the phrase "...in their right mind"?


Mind you, I fail to see how carrying heavy objects up mountains where you can't even see the view is in any way "exciting".

But then I'm clearly not the target audience. I have a deep resistance to, as kargicq puts it, "doing pointless things showing a complete lack of understanding".
