Ok, lots of us probably have nicknames and i thought itd be fun to share the stories of how we got our nicknames. here's mine: when i was in elementary school there was this retarded kid in my grade. Even back then we knew something was wrong with him because his face was kind of hosed up and he had this weird slow way of blinking so anyway people used to gently caress with him a lot. i'd walk up to him with some french fries and say "mmm tasty poo, i'm eating poo right now, would you like some" and hed say something like "uhhh...yeah,...sure..." and id be like "I like poo. I'm eating it right now" and i'd eat a french fry and he'd be like "what's wrong with you why are you eating poo, poo is yucky" and i'd be like "mmmMMMmmmmmmm poo." things like that would happen a lot like I'd say "this isn'ta popsicle its a dick and I'm sucking it" (a lot of my pranks were food related) and i'd rub it all over my face and let it dribble down my chin chanting "dick. suck. dick. suck." the whole time while he'sd just stand there lookjing perplexed like the retard he was and say things like "please stop thats not appropriate" and "is your mommy around anywhere? do you have a caretaker?" anyway, I looked just like him only uglier, my face has NO symmetry at all and so I guess thats why everyone called me "the retard" and the name just sort of stuck.

thats just one of my nicknames though i have a lot of others, like homo rear end, turdie, blackface guy, lunchbox, i have a lot of them and maybe ill share them later, but right now, how about you? what are your nicknames and how did you get them?

They don't have nicknames where I'm from (SW UK goon reppin). You must refer to someone by whichever name they gave you. The name by which I go is not my true name, but if people were allowed to give me a name of their choosing then they could stumble upon it, and utter me out of existence.

"A few grams of lead." Lead is very dense and heavy, but a few grams of it isnt that much right? I'm not sure how much it would weigh but I imagine it'd be under several kg or w/e. Well people call me this name because when I was born I weighed an indeterminate amount. The doctor was forced to declare my weight "around a few grams of lead ?," and died shortly after.

You're right. It isn't funny to re visit schoolyard nicknames, as many of them were hurtful, and expensive.

It will cost a pretty penny for a nickname from me, after all, I'm "Pretty Penny," so you'll have to give me a pretty penny for a nickname. That's why they call me "Pretty Penny."

another great man cut down by "jamais vu." Youu know what that'd be a good name for an assassin who leaves a note at the scene of the crime that's just one or two words repeated a lot of times. The cops have to read the whole note or else they'd be bad cops, so by the end the word "egg" wouldn't even seem like a word that describes anything anymore.

Cop [surveying crime scene, a body laying in a pool of blood, with several blade wounds, lies in the middle of an otherwise spotless room]: drat, it's him again, isn't it.

Cop 2: Who? You know who did this?

Cop [a stern look on his face]: I can't say his name.. If I do then that thing will happen where you think about a word too much it makes you go crazy and the word loses all meaning, because he's killed so many times before and we can't catch him.

Cop 2: Jamais vu?

Cop: Gah! N-no!! ARghhghghghh.... I'm going to start treating citizens with the respect they deserve and turn in the corrupt police chief, now.

I remember i was boating on a lake in canada with family friends as a kid, i was about 12. They were taking people out waterskiing and i said i wanted to try. But try as i might, i couldnt hold onto the waterski handle when the boat started moving, the force of it moving was too much, i wasnt strong enough and i certainly wasnt prepared for it the first time. That's why those family friends call me "Cripple Arms."

Okay, wait a minute.

In the USA, there is a place called "Bullets and Burgers" where a 9 year old girl was given gun training with a powerful submachine gun. They gave her a special piece of paper with a golden seal on it in the shape of a glock with the official Bullets and Burgers letterhead. It included a badass nickname like "Glock Girl" or "9 Year Old Noscope," free of charge.


And it's all legal. Did I get this right?

This. It goes something like:

First name: somethingawful.com - used to be relevant but now most people don't give a poo poo about the dying idea of a "first name."

Middle name: tumblr - :qq: you got my pronouns/my middle name wrong on these documents that require at least a middle initial that corresponds with the one on your passport :qq:

Last Name: facebook/twitter - popular and most commonly used. cool people have entirely given up on first names and just use last names exclusively when yelling across busy school cafeterias.

Nickname: reddit - self explanatory

Got it after trying to go on tpb (The Pirate Bay (leading source of free content and proponents of the open web)) to download Linux >_<. Couldn't find it and asked my techie friend where I could "pirate" it, not knowing it was the type of software thats free and open for free use by anyone. Needless to say we shared a good laugh and he called all his computer friends over and they started chanting Linux Pirate Linux Pirate Linux Pirate. Tiki Torches were lit and I don't remember the rest of the night but the name stuck.

i realize this is confusing to foreigners since it's technically an Australian film, but Mad Max is actually a documentary about America. That's why the protagonist has a nick name, because nick names are an American thing, cheers mate, crikey.

Pangenesis doesn't really tell me what the game is about. Kleaveland makes me think the game is about some sort of beefy dude with an axe fighting stuff possibly with lots of modern pop culture references thrown in.

So I guess Kleaveland doesn't give me an idea of what the game is either, but it gives me an idea which pangenesis doesn't.

I thought of a nick name for nick names. It's "nickers," sort of like "knickers," but nickers doesn't have a 'k' at the beginning of the word. Feel free to use it in the thread :)
