I've been waiting months to use this line...

A good natured business associate of mine arrived at the offices in a matching nylon workout set the other day.

I looked up and said "Who are you supposed to be, Richard Simmons?"

He snapped back "Nice hat, who are you supposed to, Inspector Gadget?"

To which I responded with "Go go gadget, idiot remover!"

His son nearly fell off his chair!lol

Hahahhahahahah! You stole one of my lines but you certainly used it well.
I remember one of the gadgets that Daffy Duck installed in Elmer Fudd's house was a salesman ejector. It grabbed the guy by the neck and kept kicking him with a big boot.
It is at 5:30 to 6:00 in this clip:
[YOUTUBE]<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/-WjhdsX_W7c&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/-WjhdsX_W7c&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>[/YOUTUBE]

We need to find the source of this gadget to use on people who make dumb comments. :D :p

In the produce section, a woman asked me if I was European.

"No, I'm an American."

"Oh. I read an article that..."

At that point, I guess, she decided if I wasn't European she didn't want to talk to me anymore, so she just stopped. So now I don't know if the article stated European men wear fedoras, shirts w/collars, pleated/creased pants or eat brocolli.

Not mean spirited or anything, but it struck me as being kind'a dumb.

I can tell you that we do all of this, but I'm also interested in what the article says ;p

I got the same comment twice from different people yesterday, and I'd say it's more than just dumb.

First time I was wearing beige shirt and trousers, blue blazer with pocket square and my grey fedora. Walking through the park a group of youths decided to call me gay which I see no logic in.

Second time was in the evening, I was heading towards a party and wearing a cream jacket with a bowtie and my fedora. The occupants of a passing vehicle decided to call me the same as the first group of youths.

I got this idea from another forum. If someone asks if you are gay, you could say "No. Why do you ask; are you looking for a date?" However, you may get a punch.

Around here, it's likely that the asker IS looking for a date. :eusa_doh:

I was in an antique store/mall looking around and asked the owner if they had any fedoras that he knew of.

He said "No, most people buy them to decorate with," and I said "so do I, I use them to decorate my head!"

Not really the dumbest comment, but fast come-back I guess...
