Weird questions

[bear]

It must be somethig in the air.
Yesterday, while waiting for Ham 'n Dave at the airport, two flight attendants in their fifties walked by.
"Well, you must be a wrestler!" said one.
I stopped and looked at her to make sure she was talking to me.
"Wrestler?" I asked.
"I just thought that because of your skirt."
I blinked once, then bent slightly, assumed a wrestler's pose and said, "That's it! Two falls out of three!"
They got a good laugh out of it.

Communist Druids? Who'd a thunk it?

As for just being called communist, this might not be PC but I think it's logical - Communist = Left, Left = Liberal, Liberal = erosion of societal standards, Erosion = Men in women's clothing, ie. man in skirt.

**Holds head** That... That makes my head hurt.

I have that said to me as well. Followed up with "Rowdy Roddy Piper did it first."

Do I LOOK like a wrestler?

Er, don't answer that.

Perhaps it was that hammer and sickle you were carrying...

I think stupid questions like that should be answered with Blu's signature:
"No, but I did stay in a Holiday Inn Express last night"

Of course, in answer to the "Are you a communist" question, a simple "Nyet" might suffice.

Tops me today, all I got was "Is that a religous thing?"

Yikes Adam...

I know Cincinnati can be an "unusual" town...but....

Those kind of questions normally come out of the mouths of people with schizophrenia who are having a bad day....or tweakers on methamphetamine who its impossible to tell apart from someone with a schizophrenic break going on.

Best answer is something equally bizzare along the lines of, "No, I'm Robin Hood." and keep on walking. Another good one is, "No, I'm Adolph Hitler's granddaughter."

Anything to get them to pause and process your message while you move on with just a little extra swing in your kilt.

Don't get me started on the tweakers. They are bloody everywhere. I am fed up with them.

I-I just don't know how else to put it....I LOVE YOU GUYS! But no,I won't MAKE love to you guys,sorry...yah,I'm a little hoped up on Mtn. Dew atm. sorry. But honestly,the commie thing. I once knew a guy that claimed everything he wasn't, was communistic. So I'd just chalk that one up to the general stupidity of mankind. Being someone with a genetic trait that causes bags under my eyes (poor circulation to the area),when I was a kid (and skinny) cops would constantly search me for crack,as such, I've gotten the chance to deal with this kind of stupidity all my life! (lucky me i know) So trust me when i say, "count yourself lucky". Plus, enjoy it! There's nothing more entertaining,then to screw with someone,especially when they ask stupid questions like that. Try prooving the scottsman in you, FLASH THEM! (run quickly after) Or maybe just pretend to feel a "stiff breeze" coming! And don't forget,these things are GREAT ways to seperate the closed,from the open minded people. Learn to love the ones who ASK why,and block the ones that ASSUME why. Because we all know no one wants to be made an *** of,and that's what assuming does (makes an *** out of u,and ming).Anyway,I'm just rambling now,so I'll shaddup,nuf' preaching and bellowing out of me.

Today on my first kilted outing to Jackson, MS, I got several comments, all polite if somewhat bewildered. At Olive Garden, I had one hostess ask if I danced the Highland Fling, and our waitress asked if I belonged to a kilted organization.

No communist comments.
