Comment on the wearing of the kilt

[Panache]

Ok, so I get out of my truck with my wife and go into the Sears scratch and dent outlet. On my way out the girl at the desk asks "Are you Swedish?" There aren't even any smiles that convey my shock!

My wife says that a kilt is a ethnic chic magnet...maybe so... because...

Anyway, I repley, "I am scottish."
Her response "Are you in the Olympics?"

***?? Am I in the Olympics, do you mean me?? or Scotland?? Well I just responded that "I wasn't in the Olympics, it's in China."

Geesh, what were they thinking???

Oh the missed opportunities in life....


"Indeed I am. I'm part of the Scottish Whisky Drinking Team. Wish me luck!"

"Indeed I am. I'm competing in the Loch Ness Monster dressage team. Wish me luck"

"Indeed I am. I am a pole vaulter, it's a bit tricky wearing the kilt let me tell you.... WAIT A MINUTE! WHAT DAY IS IT! (Check your watch) OH MY GOSH THE DATE! I CAN'T BELIEVE I FORGOT...THE DATE! ...THE SCOTTISH OLYMPIC COMMITTEE WILL KILL ME... GOTTA GO! (race out the door)

When life hands you lemons make lemonade!

Classic! This whole story has me laughing. ChattanCat, you should wait a week or two and go back again and have some fun with some of these suggestions.

[The F-H.C.A.G.]

When we were camping, our neighbor came up to us and asked if we were Australian. I was confused, and wondered if I had been using my fake accent again. Then I looked over at the "Got Kilt?" sticker on our car and said, "You mean Scottish? Although there are a lot of Scots (criminals, that is) in Australia, and our clan chief (until his death) resided in New Zealand."

She immediately back tracked and started complimenting him on his kilt.

Still, not as funny as the story he likes to tell about the person who came up to him and said, "You're Dutch aren't you?". To which he replied, "No, the kilt is Scottish, not Dutch." Then, this person said, "What? No, I was referring to your NOSE!"



Be well,

Sometimes it is best to not say anything and keep walking because it only gets worse............as it is known to be said in the south..........Bless Her Heart

Somehow the brain didn't connect with the other senses before the mouth engaged. I agree with Panache, go back and have some fun next time. (Probably won't happen, though. That is my kind of luck!) In the meantime > int:int:int:
