How about Keeping It Simple.
Here is an example...

I am a college art prof.

That may be playful, but it is a Mess!
Where does the Design part come in?

This looks real lazy to me!

Lets do the math...
Gaudy, Ugly tables x 2 = Larger Single Gaudy, Ugly table.

Congrats, the whole is greater than the sum of the parts!

I have a wood shop and have many sets of the yellow guys. THey are heavy and tough and never wobbly, unless the are set up wrong or on an uneven surface.

They are great and cheap, but I think they are UGLY, I guess i have a more refined aesthetic.

White Looks Better!

You will get more light out of the white lamps.

The black ones are too heavy looking.

Oh, by the my answer is the correct answer!

For something that is so simple, why so many ingredients?

Just try...
Avocado
tomato
onion
lime juice
hot sauce

DONE!

Hilti Makes great tools, but that is Not the same tool as the others. It is not something you would ever use to do trim or even most household tasks. It is a Hammer drill, it turns and Really Pounds the screw in.

Best cordless I have ever used (Years of Finish work) is my current drill...

I think you the money Makita is Way better than the DeWalt.

I would Never ever recommend a Ryobi for anything but a Paperweight.

Too visually cluttered.
It would be a pain to keep clean and tiddy!

I Love the shape.
But, I would get more use out the Door stop.

I had one of the vases and never liked it as a Vase.

Extraordinary Claims Require Extraordinary Evidence!

I have been in a house, when a girlfriend said "Hear that, (squeaking stairs) that is the Little girls ghost". "She goes up and down the stairs all night". "I have seen her"

Well i did a little (5 minutes) investigation, steam pipes ran underneath the staircase and when the heat went on at night (without the TV on) you could hear the stairs squeaked from the heat expansion.

The little girl also did not visit during the summer (when the heater was not turned on).

My girl friend wanted to believe a little girls ghosted Haunted her house. Even with my Proof to the contrary. We went as far as turning Off the heater in the spring, and low and behold she didn't Visit that night.

No Such things as ghosts!
