T shirt reaction

Sign in to disble this ad
I was wearing a "Mediocre Bassist Club" T shirt that I had made and a woman asked me "What's a "Bassist"? (She pronounced it like the fish.) I gave her the correct way to say it and told her: "You know, it's like a guitar, but it sounds better." What would have been a better reply?

These are awesome responses. I'm not that funny so I've got nothing to contribute.
