driver of the shuttle (i shuttle to and from work, parking lot is about seven blocks away from main office): "hey, so you surf?"
me: (i thought he said "serve", the music was on a bit loud in the shuttle) "excuse me?"
driver: "surf, you know, in the water?"
me: "haha oh, no, i don't, i wish i did."
driver: "oh really? you look like a surfer."
me: "umm, thanks?"

i take it as a compliment. shoot, i'd love to look surfer-ish.
