    It's too bad, it started out funny. They should have cut it off after the nanofibers, the whole bit at the end was unfunny and unnecessary.

    Line drop. To advance the story by inserting a break and picking up at a different point.

    The first half of the article was hysterical. And the pictured socks are cool. Love the colors.
    What? There was an obvious transition and the characters' names, Ethan and Kevin, were used through out the remainder of the pseudo-article.

    But, yeah, it was hilarious (says she who owns a pair of Rapha socks ).

    I finally followed the link and read it - yeah they should have cut it off at the nanofibers part.
