What's your nickname?

I have always thought I wanted to have a cool nick name. You know, like Ace, Butch, Too Tall, something macho and meaningful. However watching the NBA finals has reminded me that this can go horribly wrong. I have been reminded of Glen "Big Baby" Davis. I remember back when he was playing college ball that I heard the story of how this nick name stuck. Point is the story and facts really do not matter. I know he has fought to get the general public to forget this name. His attempts have not worked. He is stuck with that name. That is the crap-shot of a nick name. You have a 50/50 chance that you are given an awesome name, or you are stuck with something you would rather forget. Knowing my luck, friends of mine would not be kind. I think of names like Bill "Dingle-berry Sniffer" Smith, or Ron "Sloppy Pussy" Jones, or Ken "Cat Fucker" Brown. Again, the story does not matter. You are flat out screwed! ibf!
