It's actually my pet name for my girlfriend.

I'll be that guy: I actually met you once, at the Gladstone. You and I share a few friends, and someone had said that we'd get along -- shared interests in poly, geekstuff, etc.

You were gigantically unfriendly to me, and it felt like you instantly went on the defensive when you felt like someone recognized you in public. (In reality, I had no idea you were on NN, and only found out later when someone mentioned it to me as a possible reason as to why you were so unfriendly.)

I barely got in an introduction before you dismissed me with a uninterested eye roll.

I'll try to refrain from further judgement -- maybe it was an off night for you, or maybe I interrupted an engaged conversation -- but it was a pretty huge turn-off, and didn't exactly enamour me to a second attempt.

Calm down. No need for sensationalism here. He answered the question -- or at least, answered two related questions -- twice:

How was Letterman?

Any other memorable talk show or late-night talk show experiences you can remember?

It's a delicacy there! They eat them raw or cooked.

Chicken feet is neither a delicacy, nor are they eaten raw. It's a common dim sum dish, and they're prepared steamed or fried.
