I Gave An Unexpected Response
I went to a beer festival Saturday. That morning we all met at a restaurant to get a little something to eat. Of course I had a kilt on when I went into the restaurant. One of the waitresses asked, "Where are your bagpipes?"
I completely floored her when I answered, "Under my kilt."
She was so flustered that she had a hard time taking orders for a few minutes.

She should just be glad that you didn't follow that with, "Why? Did you want to learn to play?"

I will have to remember that! What a way to put somebody in their place, if they deserve it.

Now I'm jealous. Only one that's given me that set up line was a Navajo kid working in the produce department of the local supermarket. Floored him too, but would be much more fun with a waitress. Good on you.

I didn't want to take it any further as she wasn't really being a smart aleck about it. Besides, she was flustered enough and she had to work. And I didn't want to stir up too much trouble, since the reason we picked that particular restaurant was because the wife of one of my companions worked there.
I used the same line on a young lady at the beer festival, but either she wasn't paying attention or she had too much beer, because it went completely over her head.

In my limited experience, when folks ask that question. most of the time "over their head" is not very high!
