    Kilted Advert

    I love this advert. I crack a smile every time I see it.
    If the thought of something makes me giggle for longer than 15 seconds, I am to assume that I am not allowed to do it.

    That's awesome, except the kilt appears to be sideways or backwards! At 0:08 you can clearly see pleats on the gent's right side (our left). I can't tell if it's apron on his left or pleats.

    I saw that too... I figured they had to do a 'take two' and he had gotten twisted while dancing.

    It's cute, it's silly maybe the backwards kilt is on purpose

    If this is the men's department, where are the kilts?

    That's got to be it! Backwards on purpose!

    Just so the X-Markers can throw flames

    I don't think his kilt is backwards - it's just a bit askew. There was clearly an apron in the front.

    A very amusing little advert, though.
