Quote from Niles in Are You Being Served?
Frasier: I must say, Niles, that is a striking tie you're wearing. Niles: Thank you. It was a gift from Maris. She had it made for me to commemorate the end of that dreadful winter she had her obesity scare. Frasier: Oh, yes. I remember her struggle to lose that holiday pound. Niles: After she'd restored her figure, she had Yoshi set fire to a hippopotamus topiary she felt had taunted her. Then, as a visual reminder never to let herself go again, she had this tie made for me out of the legs of her fat pants.
