Not Half Plaid The “Riddler” has nothing on me he pondered as he searched for a way along the back alleyways and dark byways of the night. Sure his clothes are adorned with a bit of green here and there but those hideous question marks! His taste is in a word; Very Questionable! OK. You’re right. That was two words. The “Cat in The Hat” has nothing on me scratching his head as he strolled along the back alleyways and dark byways of the night. Sure his clothes are adorned with a bit of red and white here and there But those hideous stripes! His taste is in a word; Not half plaid! OK. You’re right. That was three words. “The Mask” has nothing on me covering his face as he crept along the back alleyways and dark byways of the night. Sure his clothes are adorned with a bit of yellow here and there but that hideous tongue! His tongue is in a word; Tasteless! I finally got it right! That was one word “Jessica Rabbit” has nothing on me he daydreamed as he meandered his way along the back alleyways and dark byways of the night. Sure her clothes are adorned with a bit of red here and there but those sparkly sequins! Her taste is in a word; voluptuous! OK. You’re right. That was two items. He finally realized as he found his way along the back alleyways and dark byways of the night. Everyone's taste is different; not half bad!
