Yeah. Someone once said that I wasn't beautiful, (because I'm "not blonde" -her words- and because I was really sick that day. If you're sick as a dog, you're not exactly going to be impressive, even if you're an internationally acclaimed model.) I was really insulted. So I told her that I am beautiful, and I've even stopped traffic.

She kinda stared at me, and I said: "yeah, you know, step out in the street, and start crossing the road, and the traffic'll stop."

The thing is, if you are beautiful, people don't swear at you if you just start crossing the road and they have to stop. They may even gesture for you to continue. That's probably what happened to you, Carol...

(I really have stopped traffic in the normal "guy drops jaw and screetches to a halt" way, too.)

BTW, Carol, what's the recipe for that stir-fry thing you made? It was good.
