Mine aren't even super dark and I still get called "John Lennon" and
other names. Once I walked into work and everyone in the office was
wearing sunglasses and just busted up laughing.

I'm still in university as well. I'll be going on interviews for
vet schools shortly (hopefully, if I can ever get out of this
place). I have professors think I'm just being rude a lot of times,
so I'm worried they'll think I'm being rude at an interview and I
won't get in. I already have a super low GPA for getting into a vet
school anyway, I don't need any other hindrances.
