Zip It!

PT: My zipper has the letters YKK on it. It would be better if it said XYZ.*

*Later, I decided to see who YKK is. It turns out it is a global company selling products in the US, Japan, Asia, and Brazil. They seem to make fastening products (my zipper) and architectural products that "increase the value of buildings with entrance and window systems that offer quality, diversity, and uniqueness, based on the wide-ranging know-how we have accumulated through major projects around the world".

Now if you were a global company that created stunning entrance and window systems on high visibility buildings across the world, wouldn't it only make sense that the next step toward world domination of the entrance and window systems market be to start selling the entrance system into my pants?
