I had an embarrassing situation a few weeks ago.
I was in a shoe-store, when I was approached by a salesman, a tall, middle-aged guy who looked like Morgan Freeman. He said he'd like to show me a new line of shoes that just came in and that I might like them.
I said OK and he brought me a pair of shoes that had a little zipper on the side, instead of shoe-laces. I tried them on and after looking at them in the mirror I said to him, "I don't think I like these shoes. They look a little "gay" to me, don't they?"
He shot me a dirty-look and lifted the cuff of his pants slightly. Pointing down at his feet, he said, "These are the same shoes that I'M wearing."
