I like it when people say messed up stuff to me.

I was in a cab in NYC, headed home after a long evening out with friends.  I was exhausted and practically asleep, in the backseat.  When we got to my apartment, the cabby turned around, gave me a huge smile(which is never a good sign) and said the following to me:

"You have a nice, BIG, Indian nose!"

And to correct him, it is not an Indian nose, it is simply "A nice, big, American schnoz."   And it should also be noted, all I really took from this "compliment" was the fact in his country I might be considered a near goddess, with this fantastic profile, but where I'm from?  I'm just a white girl with a big nose.  And no, my sense of smell is not heightened.
