when people make observations about you that you can't possibly not know about.

My last name is "Hope", and I used to work in sales. On almost a daily basis after I'd handed an idiot customer my business card (and he'd read my name), the customer would tell me "Well, I guess you HOPE that you'll get the sale! <insert moronic laughter here>"

Of course, I always *was* hoping that I'd get the sale, so I'd resist punching these types in the face.
