11. I had the "pleasure" of serving a Mrs. Vile on regular occasions...
... as a checkout clerk many years ago. She wasn't particularly nice to me. However, she wanted to always be checked out by me, so she'd wait even if I had a queue and someone else didn't.

34. Hahaha. I was going to say that.
One of our customers is named Quackenbush. We also have a Bonebreaker. And a Fatjo. And I used to have a Doctor whose last name was Doctor. It sounded funny when they paged him in the hospital: "Doctor Doctor". Also I went to school with a girl named Scarlet Dick.

30. Raper
I just heard about a guy who's last name was Raper. Could you imagine meeting a woman you want to get to know and saying "Hi, my name is Bob Raper".

There was a guy in charge of the notorious bureaucratic process to get wetland permits. His name was "Colonel Hassle."

There is a lawyer named Kirby Upright. I know of another woman who is named April Showers.

I knew of a family with the last name of Lipshitz. They changed it to Lipsky.
