Lauri: Thanks!
Tea: What do you think you'll get with this money? Shall we go?
Lauri: Yeah!

Tea: Alright!

Lauri walks around the shop

The shop assistant: I don't think we have more than few pairs over there
Lauri: whispers interesting...
Lauri: checks out the pants Suede is leather... I need to create this "pimp" look. Maybe one of these.

Tea: Oh me oh my...

Lauri: Now that we're going to a dinner-party we better put our best clothes on.
Tea: Yes.

Lauri: In occasions like this, we're going to aunt Mirja's 60th birthday party shows the picture
a suit is always stylish to wear. For a man.

The white text: What kind of clothes do you wear?

Lauri: I think my clothes are kind of slacky like skater style. It's been like this for long but now I'm on
the search for uncomfortable clothes. Like the more uncomfortable the better! Dark blue has been my
favourite for a long time. I also like gray and beige.
Tea: What would you like to see on girls?
Lauri: I don't know... maybe... more skirts. Girls don't wear skirts anymore. All hail skirts!
And... they could also have pig-tails. Quite many of them.

The white text: Did you find anything?

Lauri: wearing the mask I found this very warm sweater! I have to shout from behind this mask!
And the windows get all steamy!
