guy- Hi! This is Bill Murray!

me (sarcastically)- Bill Murray? Wow I loved you in Lost in Translation!

guy- ...................dead silence for 5 solid, and i mean solid, seconds........which is a longer amount of time than it seems

guy- I'm not the actor.

me- Uh....yeah I know....I was just.....okay, how can I help you?


if your name is bill fucking murray and you're clearly tired of people goofing around with your name, don't start a conversation by celebrating the fact that you are named bill fucking murray. or go by william or something.

    Good story!

    If I was the guy I think I'd go by William, Willy, Billy, Liam or Patty.

    Variously credited to Mark Twain or Edward Abbey.

    Michael Bolton: Yeah, well, at least your name isn't Michael Bolton.

    Samir: You know, there's nothing wrong with that name.

    Michael Bolton: There *was* nothing wrong with it... until I was about twelve years old and that no-talent ass clown became famous and started winning Grammys.

    Samir: Hmm... well, why don't you just go by Mike instead of Michael?

    Michael Bolton: No way! Why should I change? He's the one who sucks.

    spoke a lady at work with the last name of "Hoch."

    she would not say her last name. she kept spelling it. i thought that was odd as it's not a difficult name to spell or pronounce...or so i thought.

    eventually i told her that i was just curious as to what the correct pronunciation is. was it hoch or hOch (different emphasis on the "o".)

    after a slight pause she finally tells me the correct pronunciation is......."Ho." :lol::lol::lol::lol:

    i moved right along to our next topic of discussion.... :lol:
