People say the strangest things

I know this fact cannot come as a surprise to anyone who walks around with even one ear open but still....here's the latest one I heard.

The OH and I are hooked on an Australian cooking show called My Kitchen Rules, which is shown in the UK on Sky Living. The new series has just started and that's always quite interesting as you size up the contestants, for both personality and cooking ability. Obviously most of them have a persona which they want to come across on the small screen and sometimes that can lead to them looking a bit odd.
 
Of the current crop one insisted on how she was 'a little bit creative, a little bit quirky', and it's a funny thing but I reckon that anyone who has to proclaim from the rooftops that they are quirky is generally no such thing.
 
I still don't think this girl is quirky, but it did stop me in my tracks when she said 'Pink's sort of a bit of a hobby for me'.
 
What? Say that again? Pink is 'a bit of a hobby'? What's green then - sort of a job?
 
People. Definitely odd.
