Sorry, this is clearly rather too subtle or obscure for CR4, and it is obviously not enough that Banksy is the greatest and most famous graffiti artist in the world, one should at least use the word "poo" when referring to graffiti and the dissemination thereof, shouldn't one? (Otherwise one gets OT'd). So let me try again:

"How to out-Banksy Banksy (the great graffiti artist)! Poo….eh?!"

Well, he might be British (his 'people' confirm he is a he), but he is known globally, and his works are all over the place, including the US. This year he did a month-long residency in New York, where he has many fans.

Congratulations, Deiter, you have successfully completed your entire 5-minute training program in sea wall inspection. Now, I'm going inside for a beer and you can finish inspecting the entire sea wall all by yourself. I'm sure you're a natural at it so don't stop 'til your done. I'll be right inside, waiting for you at closing time... I'll have your certificate of completed training printed out for you by that time. So get to it, and try to watch out for the bigger waves...

And Deiter said to himself, ''Oh, now I understand what they meant when they said that an real leader needs to know how and when to delegate...''
