I was at the race at Laguna Seca last weekend (American Le Mans) and caught the race, cars, booths, etc. At the Mazda tent, there were four playmates signing autographs, and since I was the only one in my party who paid to get in, I figured I'd get my money's worth and get the signed photos (my boys chickened out). So, when it was my turn, I introduced myself to one of the girls but got back a very peculiar look. Here's how the conversation went:
"Hey! You look familiar. Have I seen you before?" "Nah, I don't think so." [She begins to start signing, then stops and looks up at me again] "No, really. I know you from somewhere..." [At this point, I'm freaking out because it was like she was accusing me of being a stalker or something] "Um, I don't think so." "You look really familiar. How come I think I've seen you before?" "Gee, maybe all Asians look the same to you?" [She bursts out laughing, turns to her friend.] "Oh my gosh, he's so funny! He said that all Asians look the same! Isn't that hilarious!?" [The friend makes a comment how she gets the same thing said to her too (apparently she's Asian too). She turns back at me, grabs a hold of my forearm and smiles. Then she proceeds to sign the photo, now holding my hand. Here's where things head south...] Me - "Well, I'm from LA. You been down there?" Her - "Yeah! Which shows were you at? Were you at Glamor-con?" Me - "Um, no. Maybe a comic book convention?" Her - "A what convention?" Her friend - "You said comic convention, right?" Me - "Yeah." I swear you had to be there to fully understand the looks on both of their faces when I let that slip out. Off went her hand from mine, a pathetic shake of the head, and a firm, "No," was the reply. Her - "Well thanks for stopping by." AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!! For the record, I meant to say Sports Collectible convention (Frank & Sons, for those who live in SoCal). It was once a comic book convention, but evolved to a sports memorabilia show. Anyways, I had this girl laughing, smiling, hanging on to my hand, the works. With a slip of the tongue, I ended up looking like an idiot. *sigh*...and I used to have more game than this too... Oh, if you wondering which playmates they were, here are the pics: ![]() ![]() This post has been edited by CAMAricer: Oct 26, 2008 - 2:13 AM -------------------- ![]() ![]() 2002 SC430 (WC) - 19" SSR Comp-H, Daizen swaybars, Sparco Demons, JDM Soarer conversion, carbon fiber spoiler, Injen intake, front strut bar, drilled/slotted Brembo rotors 1997 Celica ST (DD) - 17" ADR, ViS Zyclone CF hood, ViS CF hatch, K&N intake, Invader body kit |
