WHAT TO SAY TO A WOMAN?

Cannes - There is a book called in jargon The Bible, with all the companies attending the Festival, with all the delegates, their contacts and their pictures.
It is very useful and because I have some time to kill before my next meeting I flip it through trying to memorize the faces and the names of the companies I am interested in.

After a while I go to the RAI office to talk about a project, I see the responsible and I instinctively call her by name, like we knew each other.
Pleasantly surprised, she comes to great me and I say I saw her picture in The Bible a few hours before.
- Oh, that picture... I'm uglier in that picture. Or am I uglier in real life?
You're uglier in the picture. You're uglier in real life.
- I avail myself of the right to remain silent, because anything I would say would be used against me.

But how can a man reply to this question?
