I ran into a complete redneck oneday at the post office who actually complimented me on the kilt. But he started to call it a skirt and then corrected himself. I asked him if he knew why it was called a kilt. He said that he didn't know. So I said, "Cause the last guy who called it a skirt got kilt!" He laughed very loudly, even spilled a little juice from his chew out of his mouth (rather disgusting actually).

I would not have expected that myself, but he seemed to think it was a really cool thing.
