I remember last summer it was so hot I went into public wearing a tank top. I was in the supermarket shopping for chicken breasts when I noticed a little kid pointing me out to his dad, saying "daddy, that man has double muscles!" The father says "what do you mean son?" The kid says "his muscles have muscles. Why don't you have muscles like him daddy?" The father says "but he's a lunkhead son, and daddy is smart", thinking I can't hear him, so I turn to them and say with a wink "actually I have a Master Degree and make more in a month than you make in a year", and the kid says to me "I wish you were my dad", to which the old man turned beet red and said "that's it we're going home and your grounded!" Several other shoppers and store employees witnessed the whole thing and laughed there asses off! Hey what can I say?
Good story.
I had a similar thing happen to me when I went to grad school.
Many moons ago, I went to grad school at Miami of Ohio.
The day before we were scheduled to start I figured I'd do any dept paper work.
I walked over to the physics dept after lifting .
I saw the dept head's office, and knocked.
" Hello, I'm here early to fill out any registration stuff."
The old prof looked up and very slowly said ;
" This is PHYSICS, physical education is down at the field house.
I think the football players are already there."
I smiled and took out my fellowship award letter and calmly placed it on his desk;
" I'm Howard, the one you awarded the graduate fellowship."
He looked shocked and quickly apologized.
We both had a good laugh .
I have to admit most of the other grad students in physics looked like Sheldon and Howard from the Big Bang theory.
