Something random I realized today.

[apocalypsos]

I know it's a cliche, but I can seriously remember my mother asking me at some point or another during my childhood, "Well, if everybody else jumped off a bridge, would you?"

As someone stuck with the most popular girls's name of the late seventies in a grade where the percentage of girls who shared that name rose into the double digits, if I had had any balls whatsoever, I should have snapped back, "Gee, I don't know. If everybody else named their daughter Jennifer, would you?"

Granted, if I would have had balls, I wouldn't have had that problem, but still.

Hey, John Wayne was actually named Marion. You *could* have still been Jennifer.
