Boring Girls Don't Wear Earrings Like That

I'm thoroughly convinced that you meet the most interesting people in airports.

I met this guy while waiting in line to board our flight leaving LAX. He was in his late 40's, British, and incredibly sarcastic. We had been talking for awhile - he was giving me the 20 questions bit about my life and I was playing along to pass the time. At one point he ran out of questions and said out loud "Hmm...what else can I bother you about?" My response was "Nothing, I'm absolutely boring and there is nothing else to know." Needless to say, I was dumbstruck when he said "Nonsense! Boring girls don't wear earrings like that." What!?! Since when did earrings become a symbol of how you act?

Interesting observation...I think you need to add a photo of the "non-boring" earrings so we can see your wild choices in accessories...
