Idiot in a skirt!

[Iolaus]

I once told a guy that he was confused. A Kilt is what a man wears.
A skirt is what his girlfriend leaves wadded up on the floor when she meets a man in a kilt.

I like that!!

I just say, "Boys wear pants. Men wear kilts." On occasion I've even said to women who have said it's a skirt, "Yes...and it's prettier than yours."

That tends to get a laugh....usually if they keep insisting it's a skirt it's because they are 1) drunk or 2) think they'll just get under your skin by calling it a skirt all the time. Once you show that you don't care, they tend to stop.

When a women asks, you could always turn your back to them and ask if it makes your butt look fat.

Or just say that their skirt makes their butt look fat and mine look fabulous...

I've only had that hollerd at me once, but I had a good response I got from Kilt Day.com.

"Hey! I like your skirt"

"Thanks! All the ladies do!"

Guys, I am on your side BUT, it is a skirt. The proof is in any Thesaurus. Why argue with a stupid drunk? He looks like a fool to whoever hears what he has to say and therefore we look better by simply ignoring the dummy. Now, that being said, if the lout continues to try and start trouble then we can end it. If some drunk decides that he has made a fool of himself because he can't make you do something in response to his loud mouth and then tries to cause some trouble and pushes it THEN I get angry and teach the stupid fool that to say skirt is very dangerous because it makes your lib swell up really bad. I wait until the idiot attempts to touch me and then he can't say that I started anything physical. We all have a right to defend ourselves and still press charges against the trouble making drunk.

Please, can we not go here again? Everyone has their own opinions on the semantics, and nobody has ever been swayed to change their mind by the past posts, so let' leave it alone. If anybody is new here, search the forums. And KiltedKnight, this is not a shot at you, just a request to not re-hash this particular topic.

Why argue with a stupid drunk?...

I agree, and as Streetcar said, this happens a lot where alcohol is a factor, so remember that now, so you have a response ready that does not add fuel to the fire. Of course, for any of you gentleman that enjoy the weekly brawl, feel free to respond with "I knew you were gay, now I have a treat under here for you!".

Let me know how it works out for you!

I just say The last guy that called it a skirt got Kilt. It shuts some up, and others dont deserve an answer.
