A woman just walked up to my wife and I and asked, “Would you name your child ‘Fisher’?”



The oddness was compounded by the fact that Fisher is my maiden name.



I was like, “Ahhh…sure?”

Like, what? Are you taking a poll or something?



We think she misheard us say ‘ever’, as in “she will not have children, ever”, and for some reason felt the need to tell us, two total strangers walking through the mall, that our choice of child’s name sucked.



…this happens to me all the time. Apparently I look really approachable or something? I should get a ginormous facial piercing or dye my hair black again or learn to scowl like Clint Eastwood (or Clint Easywood. Which I just mistyped. And I now claim as my porn alias, should the need ever arise. Heh. Arise.)



(Not that people with any of those features aren’t approachable…but people typically don’t)
