I can’t resist sharing a few more gems from the site (which explicitly states that is ok):

From a different strip, but I like this comic. (Helps to have seen “Good Will Hunting”.)

Vulcan – wanna Mind meld babes
Composer – let me hum sweet nothings in your ear
Don Juan, or Byron poet – let me whisper sweet nothings in your ear
String Theorist – let me whisper TOE in your ear, and become Unified
Caveman – hubba hubba hubba … … hubba hubba hubba … … hubba
Simpsons fan – Madge we got any more salami and icecream
