8.    If you had the chance to change

 your name would you? And what would

Today, when I told my guy my favorite part of his body was his brain.

I said, "What would happen if you got brain damage?
Then you wouldn't be the same.
What would I do?"

He said, "Then you'd find a new part to be your favorite."

Yes, I would.
