Rude for me to call another guy "Mom" when he kept bugging me? (conversation, business)

I've said the following in response:


"You really enjoy that question", and smiled.


"Always such an interesting question, I don't really have anything new to add."


He doesn't get it! SHUT UP, dude!

lol! This makes me laugh. I love the name you gave him: "The Coat Inquisitor". haha, it's quite the Inquisition, isn't it? He just doesn't let up. lol


C.I.: "No coat, today?"

Our Hero: "I value consistency. At least people will never accuse me of being inconsistent."




I think we should get jiggy with it. Members? Any bright, entertaining, perhaps even droll ideas for the OP?



Oooh, oooh, I have one, OP!

C.I. "Still no coat?"

You: "To coat, or not to coat; that is the question."

You could also bore him with all of the details of an honest answer.

My body chemistry is different than yours, I don't get cold easily. I only walk one minute from the car and I don't have time to get cold or feel a coat is necessary. I only wear a coat when I am outside in weather under X degrees for more than Y minutes.

Thanks, everyone. I just don't want to be rude to him. I Googled him and we actually have a lot in common, so if he'd ever shut up about my clothes, we could probably be friends.



I've just never had another guy even notice what I wear (other than a "sharp suit!" comment or the like). It's so weird!

Wear a coat one day.

See what happens.

Being humorous or wry isn't being rude. Just saying. You could show a little imagination, just for fun and giggles.

So my gym was closed today because of New Year’s Day. This I went to another gym that was open (one at my school’s alumni center). I wore my coat there and placed on a table at the entrance, in front of the sign stating, “Athletic Center Check-In”, and took a picture of my coat in front of the sign.

Tomorrow when the Coat Inquisitor comes up to me, I’m going to excitedly show him the picture, saying, “My coat has something to show you! It went to the gym yesterday! And it took a picture since it wasn’t sure if you’d believe it!”

Hopefully that will end this.

It won't.

You're just perpetuating it.

And giving this way too much room in your head.

OK, thanks. I won’t then. I’d rather just ignore the Coat Inquisitor Bully anyway. When he asks about my coat tomorrow, I'll give him a visibly faked smile and say, "You're asking that again?"

I totally would have done the coat picture thing.
