Have you ever heard another diver (or non diver) say something totally bizarre that made you shake your head in bewilderment? While on a dive trip I heard my then BF say, "Haven't you dove enough? Why don't you hang out with me and watch some TV." This is while we were in Bonaire!!!!
This morning I had another interesting conversation with a non-diver. It wasn't on a dive trip, but rather at the drive thru window at my neighborhood Starbucks (I'm there a couple times a week).
It went something like this:
Counter Girl: "Hey, I've been meaning to ask you, what does that sticker on your car mean?"
Me: "Which sticker?" (I have a plethora)
CG: "The sticker that says Ni-ter-oxy diver" (nitrox diver)
Me: "Oh, I'm a scuba diver and that is a blend of gas I sometimes use in my tank."
CG: "Oh. But doesn't it burn your throat when you breathe in gas? :11:
Does anyone else have anything to share?
