Rhymes

Apparently people are more likely to adopt careers that rhyme with their names. The proportion of dentists named Dennis is disproportionately high, for instance. I guess kids named Gus Jiver or Kinvestment Wanker just don't have much of a choice about their destinies.

This might explain my career indecision. Erin rhymes with ...nothing. Maybe "swear in", but it's a bit of a stretch. Should I be an official oath-overseer?
