I once did something more to annoy my friend who thinks i can do anything and talk to anyone... of course he is wrong, but let's not tell him that!
Anyhow, he had just ponted out the stunning girl at the jukebox, who (he informed me) had walked out of her job as newspaper reporter to spend a year in Peru. I said well lets see how she's doing and got up, wandered over, leaving my friend cringing behind.
I pretended to do a double take while at the jukebox, returning my gaze to the tracklist shaking my head slightly. I had to do this twice before she said something like "erm...you liked you were going to say something?"
"no... i just thought i knew you from somewhere, but now i relise it isn't possible"
Very soon she was demanding to know why not and where. So i explained that she looked like a lady i had encountered during a recent trip to peru. She became very excireted, firing qestions at me.
I was busily giving my friend (who looked as though he might burst into tears at any second) a particularly smug look, when she asked another question...
"Which town?" ...
...hmm mentaly counted all the peruvian towns i knew. Realising it was round number less than one it was clear the game was up and i just started laughing and confessed everything.
Fortunately she thought this was all very funny, and we had a really nice chat before i returned to my friend.
And yes...everyone now says... You should have said Lima"
