    I suppose you could always make up a t-shirt emblazened with... "I hate denim jeans!" front and back.

    I prefer the quote "Pants are for women"...which I am going to make into a t-shirt once I find suitable font.

    "So you want some fries with those?"
    Maybe he worked at that fastfood Scottish restaurant before the present job.

    I've had several really nice experiences in clothing stores.

    When I was looking for a nice matching sweater the staff of a clothing store/taylor bombarded me with questions and kind remarks...they never seen a kilt close quarters.
    They even asked me to take it off for "inspection". I gave in and borrowed a pair of trousers, so they could inspect the kilt.
    They loved it!...the weight, the tartan, the pleats and the craftmanship.

    I got a nice discount for the sweater

    Another clothing store...I'm a regular customer there...they also love my kilts and they have a keen eye (clever commercial bast@$ds! )
    It's almost impossible to leave that store without something nice...a shirt, a sweater, a jacket.

    "Oh! look at this! this short jacket will go perfectly with your kilt!"

    hard to say no....

    on a side note...How do you cut a previous post so you see the original poster?
    Thanks

    to remove a part of the quote, simple delete it. As long as you do not delete anything between apair of brackets, you should be fine.

    Funny, it was probably just a robotic comment.

    After writing a ticket, I always say, "Thanks for your cooperation and drive safely!" It is automatic. I say it without thinking. I have caught myself saying to not only uncooperative people (which isn't the worst thing, it just comes off as sarcastic) as well as those I have cited for no license (or suspended license) as they are being sent away on foot and their car or motorcycle is being hooked up to a tow truck.... "Drive safely... er.. Don't drive safety, um, be safe, but DON'T DRIVE!" Jeeze! I wish I could stop myself, but it seems to be beyond me! I always catch myself too late.

    How about a shirt that says, "Yes it's a KILT" on the front and "Pants are for Lasses!" on the back.

    I've got to get myself one of those!


    Two weeks back I was busily trying to feed a parking meter when the door of the next car opened and a woman got out and said "I really like your quilt!" After seeing my confused look she realized her mistake and corrected herself. This led to a short but very pleasant conversation.
    Now that wouldn't have happened if I were wearing jeans.
