What a cop-out

Thanks Volker, you made my day :)
Reminds me of an old joke:
Jane went to Ikea to buy a new wardrobe, brings it home, builds it and it looks great. That moment the subway rumbles by and the vibrations make it collapse.
So she rings at the neighbor's door to ask Pete, the new good looking neighbor to help to fix it. He reassembles it and it looks great. That moment the subway rumbles by and the vibrations make it collapse.
So Pete goes back, gets his toolbox, reassembles the wardrobe and tells Jane: "I'll stand inside and wait for the subway. Then I have a look where the gap opens triggering the collapse and add some screws there". The door closes. That moment Jane's husband Robert enters the bedroom and looks around. He remarks "Oh a new wardrobe" and opens the door. "Pete - what are you doing in there?"
"Hi Robert, I suggest you knock me down here and now, because when I tell you that I'm waiting for the subway you wouldn't believe me anyway".
You made my day !
