Thats nothing.

I worked for a company a few years ago called 'ERS Solutions'. They sell and repair tools for automotive diagnostics. One day I asked a coworker what the 'ERS' bit stood for. Apparently they paid about 50 grand to an advertising firm to come up with the name.
ERS stands for 'Environmental Refurbishment Services'.

And when the moment is right, I'm gonna fly a kite.

I would definately want a detailed breakdown of how they came to create that logo.

£14000? More likely to be a coverup of other expenses.

Sneaky sneaks. I'm actually a werewolf. Woof.

I don't get it. It's supposed to look like a guy masturbating when it's rotated on the side? If so, that's a hell of a stretch.

Are your eyes composed of two dots?

Is your brain broken?
