Don't you wanna be Pepper, too?

A few minutes ago as I was leaving the gym I passed a man about my age as he was going to the gym.  We nodded to each other in greeting as we passed by.

A few steps later he called back to me, "Where'd you get your shirt?"

My jacket was open so he clearly saw the image on my t-shirt:

It was gift, so I told him I thought the giver found the shirt.

In gratitude, he said, "Yeah, represent!".

Not quite sure how to respond to that, I said, "Yup," smiled, and continued on my way.

The conversation brings this commercial to mind:

I'm happy to say, "I'm a Pepper."
