My John Hancock

Just a quick post. I absolutely HATE when people ask you to sign something and say "Can I Have Your John Hancock?" John Hancock, how long ago was that, 230 years ago? Hasn't anyone signed anything important since? Why do people revert back to these old, played out expressions? Does it annoy you as well?????

They should make a porn called "Can I Have Your John HanCOCK."

You should star in it CMAC!

I hate when you say something to a guy and he says, "That's what she said." That's just dumb and old.

There are so many bad and played out expressions.

I stumbled upon this blog and I think it's some of the funniest stuff I have ever read. I have people at work in my cube just laughing their asses off, thanks for the smiles!

I worked with a client by the name of "Ram Silverman" who used to remind me that "everything was bigger in Texas." He also loved talking to me on Monday mornings after football weekends because my voice got all low and raspy (not too dissimilar from what it sounds like now). Yeah, total porn name.

Kate, asking a guy why he's obsessed with porn is like asking a child why they're obsessed with cartoons, or X-box - it just IS :)

HAHA! You are too much! At a company I used to work at we had to get a UPS signature and there in black and white our receiving guy signed "John Hancock". Can you imagine?

Miss_Vicki said...

But what if your name really IS John Hancock?? :op There had to be more than just the one dude ;)

Jillian said...

Does not really bother me. If I need something signed I always ask for their autograph....maybe I better stop using that one!!!!

Make that John Hand Cock, and use Billy Joel's "Captain Jack" as the theme song.

Nostalgia seems to work nowadays. When I first saw the screaming headline on the front page of AM New York about the vintage clothing store selling nazi dolls, my first thought was "Lemme guess...it's on St. Mark's Place." Sure enough, it was/is! If it works for clothes and dolls, it might work for old music too, and the theme sure fits!

I honestly never gave it a thought. I guess I'm too busy wondering if my signature is going to cost me something or get me on some telemarketer's call list!!

I agree. Just fucking ask me to sign and don't be all 18th century on me, drama weirdo.

Jenni said...

I thought it was "Herbie Hancock." ;)

I know I'm a day late and a dollar short, but if you think about it, at least you know who John Hancock is. Most kids nowadays don't have a clue and it's sad. I guess my thought is that we do need to keep saying these "ism's" so that we can pass on this info to the younger generation. Too serious. Ok, I LOL on the porn title.
