Werid Sounding Surnames...

[ps07857]

Just got back from a business dinner with a potential client... This guy is a American guy working in NY.... He says,"Hi my name is Jason.... Jason Lampa!"
I almost choked on my glass of water and had to reaealllllly compose myself before I could introduce myself. He said, "I work in NY!"..... I said, "Good for you... you have left me a deep impression! I am sure the locals will not forget Foreign Talents like you...."

[vamjok]

i used to have an email list with tons funny combo of chinese/dialect surname with christain name

[sadfcuk]

His name is in English. You find it funny in your own dialect.

Who knows, someone on the other side of the world could be making fun of your name because it sounds funny in their own language/dialect.

In the end, it is nothing but an immature and childish joke that runs rampant among primary school children.

Try laughing out loud in front of them, and tell them that the reason is because their names are funny. Even better, tell your other business associates to stop any dealings with them because their names are funny.

Let's see what happens.
