AnswerMug Challenge Series, One of the Weirdest Facts About You Edition: I just realized that anything that features lots of surnames*

automatically makes me think back to my my three tours of duty in the US Marine Corps and all the men and women from the various units in which I served.  Among them, there were hundreds, maybe thousands of surnames, and now, decades later, almost every surname I hear either matches or is similar to someone I knew then.

*News articles/reports, sports broadcasts, awards shows, reading literature, etc.

Ok, your turn.  Can you meet or beat that for a weird fact you've discovered about yourself?
