Pet hate of a stage hypnotist!

Hi, I am sure most professions that deal with the public have there pet hates, somthing that the public say to you thinking that they are funny and original, but really you have heard it all before over and over again!
Well, as a stage hypnotist it has changed over the last few years, when I first started, seventeen years ago, at almost every show at least one person would walk up to you and click their fingers in your face and shout "SLEEP!" thinking that they were totally original and that it was the first time that you would have heard it.
As a professional, you would have to force a smile and commend them on their quick wit and originality, whilst thinking somthing completely different!
This all changed almost overnight, due to the television show "Little Britan" and their character "Kenny" the stage hypnotist.
How I long for someone to come up and shout "SLEEP" at me again instead of people getting in your face and shouting "LOOK INTO MY EYES... LOOK INTO MY EYES... NOT AROUND MY EYES!..." We still have to deal with it with a fake smile, but you can't help thinking "Oh no, not again!"
If you work in a different profession that has it's regular anoying comments please let me know what gets to you?
