I absolutely did the "Hi, I'm Emma & I'm adopted" routine. In primary school, my teachers used to make me get up in class & talk about being adopted, which I liked doing because it would be like sharing a part of me which no-one else in my class had. I hated the bit about trying to explain that although my parents didn't give birth to me, they were still my parents. They didn't get that, and that's ok, because like me, they were kids. Used to frustrate the hell out of me though!!!
I love the 'yours just had sex' comeback - that's a beauty! LOL!
