Interesting accusation?
I was in the grocery store and then hippie lookin' guy with a pony tail says "Hey, nice hat - you must be a swimmer"
I guess it was the tights and the funny little hat?
That is all.

Once I was leaving work in lycra shorts and a t-shirt, helmet and sneakers. Someone thought I was about to go skating. (?)

Reminds me of a story.
A little kid was walking through a bar district when he spots a sailor in uniform walking towards him. He excitedly stops the sailor, "Wow a real sailor, anchors aweigh, can I have your hat?"
The sailor smiles, and gives the boy his dixie cup hat, then the kid continues on his merry way, smiling and whistling, until all of the sudden he sees a Marine get tossed out of a bar and into the gutter. He runs over to the drunken Marine, lying there in his own blood and vomit, his uniform in tatters. "Wow, a real Marine, a leatherneck, Halls of Montezuma, can I have your hat?"
The Marine squints at him through the slit of his only good eye and roars. "WTF are you kid, some kind of f@gg0tt?"
The kid responded immediately, "on no, I'm not a sailor, I'm just wearing the hat!"

I had some little old lady note my ponytail - and then ask me if I'd just had brain-surgery. I told her 'No.' But I asked her where she got her's done.
I went to vote in my old town. The old guy who took my ticket looked at my colorful Mazatec sweater and my Lakota headband. He said: "So how was Woodstock?" So I looked him up and down and said: "Fine, thank you. So how was the Civil War?" The whole line behind me were LOL. The old guy didn't answer.
I hated that town.

My windbreaker is yellow. I would rather hear about bumblebees than that I looked like sunrise over the Rockies.
