I don't know, it feels like a different category when imposed from a company & overnight.

There was an "Austin Powers" at an old workplace. Imagine being that guy, with a perfectly normal if uncommon name until one day a trailer for a new comedy spy film comes out…

Obviously not much you can do about it with films, it's possible to happen, but I'd find that _much_ more annoying that getting tall jokes.

For the first dozen or so years of my life, virtually every adult I met thought they were clever by referring to me as "Sam I am" (like from the Dr. Seuss book). Although thankfully that eventually waned, I still have a very intense dislike of that phrase.

Whatcha talking about, Willis?

Hehe ;)

Wonder how Boomer Esiason is taking to “Hey Boomer”
