    I'm going to toot my own horn for meeting the best dude at the gym recently.

    The guy had a Marine's logo tattoo or whatever on his shoulder, but did not look like a Marine by any means. So my interest was really peaked.

    Part way through he was working out close to me so I asked, "Nice tattoo. Were you in the Marines?"

    He responded, "What? Huh? Oh, this? No. I just have like.... a lot of respect for what they do."

      Lol I would just lie after my 10,000th time getting that question. Just say it was in memory of my dead uncle or something.
