The Dumbest Comment I Ever Heard

[BigSleep]

While wearing the OR that you see in my avatar I had a guy say "You look like a G-Man." I had the brim down.
(For those who dont know, G-Man was slang for "Governmant Man" meaning an FBI man.)
He wasnt being derogatory.
So I thanked him and went on.

Yesterday at the mall, wearing my penney's marathon OR clone. A gang of Asian men with shaved heads and porcupine spikes walks past me and the nearest calls out "Hey Cowboy!".

"You talking to me Sonic the Sagging Pant Hedgehog?"

I'd take that as a compliment too. Hey, the G Men might have been scary guys, but they knew how to dress!

It has a bow! It's a woman's hat.

:eusa_doh: Had a co-worker tell me that today. I was wearing my Panama Montecristi with the brown band.

I explained even with the bow, she couldn't pull off wearing the hat. Had another co-worker laugh and tell her I was right- she couldn't pull it off, she was too manly, it does have a bow on it you know.:eusa_clap :eusa_clap

A good comment

Was in a car accident yesterday and the investigating State Trooper told me he liked my hat!

You should have asked her if they knew over at Cherry Hospital that she was missing. (Inside joke)

Cherry Hospital is one of NC's four state psychiatric hospitals and is located in Goldsboro. I noticed that geckoheaert was from Goldsboro, and thought if he saw the reference to Cherry Hospital he'd make the connection. [huh]

Oh, I knew what you referring to.
It just sounds better with Cherry short one pit than Cherry short one nut.

Maybe I'm slow, but I'm still trying to figure out what Kevin Popejoy
meant by

"one of those belly shirts with kind of a muffin top thing going."

Uh... what's a muffin top?

Is that where the picture in your avatar came from?

But seriously, I hope you weren't injured.

Yesterday I wore my Adam straw hat, with a hawaiian print shirt and black and white loafers to work. A guy said I looked like Hannibal Lecter.

 

[Doh!]

I hope you were able to make the "fava beans" slurping sound in response.

The scene he was referring to I believe is closer to the end of the film and contains the line;

"I'm having a friend over for dinner."

Well, I've been wearing my fedoras for a few weeks now, and still haven't heard any REAL insults or dumb remarks, though I have gotten scads of compliments and a few curious stares/raised eyebrows.

Until today.

At my job, part of our responsibility is to goof off both with customers and between each other. Naturally, this leads to a lot of good-natured ribbing and joking. Today one of those such sessions turned into an exchange of joking "insults" and creative name-calling. Myself and a co-worker were having a pretty funny exchange about his taste in music when he came up with what might have been the funniest comment I'd heard so far:

Trendiana Jones.

Had it come from someone else, or in an angry manner I'd have been tempted to get upset, but under the circumstances I couldn't help but absolutely double over in laughter!

I get Elliot Ness once in a while here at work. But being a police lieutenant who wears a fedora and suit I can understand it. Like H/Jones I consider it a compliment.

that sure beats being called JOE FRIDAY [since most will not remember the TV show, but think of the movie with Dan Dan Aykroyd
