my father's not as smart as he thinks he is

[plutospawn]

A little backstory: Dad was visiting a customer to give an estimate and realized that he had completely forgotten the customer's name. So instead of fessing up, he thought he'd be real slick.

Dad: (With his pencil and sheet out) So, how do you spell your last name again?
Customer: S-M-I-T-H.

hahaha That's one advantage of the name. We always know.

Do you ever get any horrifically dumb pronounciations? I always know it's a telemarketer when they want to know if Mr. or Mrs. Cassie is there.
