Funny answers for common questions brainstorm

I’m reaching a stage where opening is starting to seem more like a fun challenge than a nerve-racking experience. So I reach a point where girls do open up, and do seem interested, but I’ve been thinking of ways to spice things up when reaching past the initial chit chat after the opener, and she shows some interest by asking those very basic questions:
1-What is your name?
2-What do you do? / do for a living?
3-How old are you?
In my case, I avoid a straight answer with some of the following:
1-Clark Kent / Peter Parker (girls aren’t as nerdy as guys, so this isn’t working very well, as it is not every girl who understands it.)
2-Few ideas. Thing is, I actually DO have interesting occupations and know how to up-play them (I am a psychology student, working with schizophrenics, and a musician who plays Indian music and alternative rock), but I’m looking for a funny initial answer that doesn’t reveal what I really do.
3-I just usually make them guess, and play around with it. I’m 23, but look a bit older.
Ideas for making these questions seem less of an interview, making the answers more teasing/funny?
ps: I tried to find a thread with something similar, but couldn't.

1. "Bond. James Bond."
2. "I'm a spy. I travel the world, kill people, make love to beautiful women... It beats a desk job."
3. To quote Roissy: "I'm a vampire; I'm hundreds of years old."
The first two I've actually used in conversations which ended with the girl giving me her phone number. But you should probably take my suggestions with a grain of salt.

For "whats your name" I've been going with "In some parts I am called El Fuego" ... "but you can call me (name)" I say the first part really seriously, and the second part very lightly, has been working well.

What do you do?
"I blow up bridges."
I've been using that one a lot lately.

"It's complicated."
Works for most questions.
Know your enemy and know yourself, find naught in fear for 100 battles. Know yourself but not your enemy, find level of loss and victory. Know thy enemy but not yourself, wallow in defeat every time.

I've got half a dozen ways to avoid these questions and re-frame.
"So what do you do?"
My replies vary depending on the situation, but here's a few:
"Next question."
"Guess."
"You first."
"Geez grilling me already Al-Qaeda? Are you gonna put the cuffs on me next?" (one of my fav's for building sexual tension)
"I'm an assassin/clown/magician" (to the last one I'll even make a quick arm movement and say "I... do... MAGIC" for added effect). Cheezy as hell but it works.
When it gets around to my actual job (which
is pretty cool) they end up being blown away anyway. This just adds to the suspense. Some of these need to be delivered with the proper tone though to work.

I´ve tried the old "I'm a lighter repairer" on occasion as well... still, there are some girls that just don't get it.
Actually, some of the girls I´ve been gaming lately just don't get my sense of humour. I think it might be because I initially come of as being too serious, and I also think it's something to do with the way I look...

I used to use "I live off the land" all the time before even reading anything by Roosh. After finding out he was using it too, I use it with a fair amount of frequency. Coming up with off the wall answers can be fun, just try not to get too carried away or she'll think you're too weird.

"I'm homeless. Not a bad life, get to live by the beach, free showers, clean needles " etc.
I see them fairly frequently, so it's not hard to start weaving stories of homeless life. And I do live by the beach.
I'd feel like a tool if I gave fictitious "cool" answers. Not that it's any less effective. I like Roosh's style.

What do y'all do when the girl starts getting annoyed/pissed because you're not giving her straight answers? This has happened a few times.

1-What is your name?
2-What do you do? / do for a living?
3-How old are you?
1- Uhura. (speak something like aoiarnhoasdaoranho and say it means nice to meet you)
2 - I...I can't tell you... sorry.
3 - this is not polite ask girl's age.
Deixa que essa fase é passageira, amanhã será melhor você vai ver a cidade inteira seu samba saber de cor!

Always give a straight answer to this question.
I would like to ask the reasoning behind this, Roosh.
Because his name is uncommon and transitions to his ancestry & then traveling experience... that's my best guess. I do the same thing when a girl asks where I'm from.
"Everywhere."
