Well, you have a cool name, which no one can embarrass you with. I once dated a guy named Sam, who enjoyed the Dr. Seuss references, like Sam Stoddard. His standard reply--- "I don't like eggs, but I'd dig some ham."

The Jessica Rabbit comments are not bad. I loved the movie, and that sometimes starts a conversation. Though I don't resemble Jessica Rabbit much, in personality, fashion, etc.

I pity my friend Lorena, however. She gets offensive and embarrassing comments. She's not uptight and has a pretty outrageous sense of humor, but still, the severing jokes from a stranger are off-putting. Also, the Monica jokes must be infuriating to all the Monicas out there.
