The question(s)
This past Sunday, my wife and I went out for dinner and a movie (The Secret Life of Bees). We went to a place we've been wanting to go for dinner for a long time. I've been kilted since school on Friday, so off we went. Got to the restaurant, walked in and got some stares from the bar, but expected it. Our waitress came over and said, "I've never met a man in a kilt before and was wondering if you...?" and I said "No!" and she came right back, "So do you...?" to which I quickly replied with a smile "Why, yes I do." and she went off to place our order.
My wife looked puzzled and asked about our very short discussion about my kilt, and I told her that the first question was going to be, "Do you play the bagpipes?" and my wife wryly added "And the second was about your underwear?" And I said yes.....
Our puzzled waitress came back with our dinner and earnestly started asking about my kilt and her earlier questions. I told her that I get those two questions so often that I decided to play with her mind a bit and answer her before she had a chance to ask them properly.
Dinner was great AND so was the movie. People in kilts DO get asked the darndest questions.
