[QUOTE="SneakyCuttlefish, post: 248721, member: 3340"] Sometimes the question "where did you find that?" is meant only as a general expression of interest/admiration and as a means to spark a conversation. I once asked an old coot where he found a huge gem he was parading around the camp site (compensation for a lack of vitality no doubt). I was met with a "do you think I'm f'ing stupid you little shit" kind of response. He could have responded with an "out past the black stump and turn left" vagueness. I laugh, he laughs we both go away with a smile. Instead he chose to be an ass about it. Felt like slashing his tyres, but I'm not that sort of person. Anyway, point of the story is I think its perfectly okay to ask and its perfectly okay to be vague. Not okay to be an ass about it. [/QUOTE]
