You've got to respect the fact that one potato head fits all. That he managed to describe Steve Buscemi and Daniel Craig the same way - and get away with it, till now - genius.

Clearly, Carr suffers from a rare form of solanumtuberiphilia. When combined with Phronemophobia, Nephophilia and perhaps Verbophobia, this can result in a stultifying repetition of metaphor of this type. I feel strongly, as a sufferer of Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia, that the Floccinaucinihilipilificationism inherent in this piece does not do you justice. There, I said it.
