Was wearing my little silver bat choker (I wear it everywhere) whilst waiting for a bus, and a slightly drunken guy comes up to me and asks if I like batman, because I'm dressed all in black and I'm wearing a bat.
Next day, walking towards the Tube station, I pass the same guy, who greets me with 'hey, batgirl!'
Haven't seen him again since then.
It was kinda cool, in an odd way.
