I had a stripper (no really, she came out of the back door of the strip club) wearing a short miniskirt comment "nice ride" as I grabbed a snack to ward off a bonk on a really bad ride home. I was speechless, thankfully, since all I had was "you too".

And considering that "bonk" means something entirely different in Britain, you made a fantastic pun there.
