Have you ever noticed that a guy can say almost anything and if
enough girls hear it someone will be able to translate it into a
proclamation of affection?
"Pretty sure he just said I was the devil."
"No, that was TOTALLY his confession of love. Run to him, sister, and confess your undying like."
Riiiiiight.
Sometimes
different cultures and experiences and genders really do see completely
different subtext and meaning in what they say. Sometimes what one
person sees as something kind or innocuous or flattering can mean "I
don't like you and need you to understand that I am in love with Sylvia"
to someone else. Sometimes we just wish people would not be so confusing.
Your challenge: A character receives
multiple interpretations of what someone has said. Bonus points if you
involve a metaphor including a piece of sports paraphernalia or a member of the local
wildlife.
