  3. Just added a bunch of names to @45names, so now there are more than 280 ways to call potus names.

    Useful for all the times you want to refer to him without using his name (every time).

  4. What's the worst nickname you've ever had for a co-worker?

    When I was made redundant just before Christmas I did a few months of agency work. I named one of the soul-drainer energy vampire colleagues "Decaf Dawn" because talking to her gave you absolutely no stimulation.

    HR found out and I was given a warning.

    I was already planning to bail a few weeks later to start my own business anyway.

  9. Names

    It makes me curious how people pick the names for their child. The choice and even the process are deeply personal. It tells quite a bit about how they think. How did you pick really important names? I'd kind of like to use if for job interviews... except, I'd bet Human Resources and Legal would find it inappropriate. Too personal. Maybe the question could be about naming their personal computer like how I named one Helios. Photo by Pixabay on Pexels.com I've long held a fascination with […]

  10. Do you have a name that is only one syllable long? If yes, do you have a nickname, and is that nickname longer than one syllable?

  13. Does your city/state/country have a well established nickname? Make sure it is added to OpenStreetMap using the nickname tag!

    It's quite fun to see everything rendered in a less "official" fashion.

  14. Just for fun, you can look up an old source for nicknames of the states of the United States as of over a century ago. Some are familiar (!), whereas others make you scratch your head and go "huh?". Check it out!

  15. Because Tesla automobiles are being sold
    by people who work for Musk
    while Musk is giving Nazi salutes,
    Teslas are being called swasticars.

  20. Sorry #Lefties, we just don't have it in us to give good derogatory #nicknames. We're just not good at it. I see #tRump and #donOld tossed around, and it has zero #rizz. I don't think we've ever even approached "#Meatball #Ron", and that was a throwaway name! They didn't even use it.

  21. The nice thing about having a dog named Max is the sheer number of AKAs there are:

    Maximilian, Maxfield, Maxwell Smart, Maxattack, Big Max, Maxinator, Maximus Doggitus, Maximum Effort, Max Truck…

  22. CW: identity, legal names, negative emotions (long rant)

    I wrote here few times about using term "legal #name" instead of "real name". And how much I hate my surname, which binds me to my awful past. And how much I hate and despise Zuckerberg for forcing using legal names in the internet.

    It seems like I found other term for this. "Forced name". Still more accurate than "real".

    Some time ago I realized again I am so much unlucky that I am seemingly one last person in groups I regularly have contact with, who is called by her dumb legal name while they could use their chosen #nicknames. For few years I was able to ignore this pain and keep going but after some events this year (I don't want to reveal details here so my stupid legal name wouldn't leak here and taint this only comfy space) I somehow couldn't.

    I started using term "worksona" unironically for my legal name identity. And with time passing, I realized, when I see my legal name written somewhere, it feels like reading about other person whom I don't like. Like I have to compete with her. And I want to defeat her so much.

    Legal name for me is like uncomfortable suit I have to wear for work or for doing some formal stuff. And like stiff costume or dirty shoes I want to leave it near door when I come home. And currently, after that events, it became radioactive. It make me feel poisoned.

    I don't have public online presence with that name after deleting LinkedIn. And I will protect my presence here against contamination with it. Even if I could "lose" few thing because of this.

    Sometimes I think about taking a break from (most) social interactions so I wouldn't feel so poisoned. Like a detox.

    I saw people who for some unknown reasons tried to know my legal surname if I didn't reveal it. They didn't need it for anything but dug for it... for what? For throwing this radioactive material at me and making me more upset?
    (just... don't do it?)

    I am still beating myself for too poor opsec to successfully hide it :/ Time to boost my shield in offline life too.

    Maybe it's also my fault I didn't have one coherent online identity earlier, before I started to hang out with some groups. I want to "reset" this time and do it better.

    I am surprised myself. Something was minor inconvenience for me for long time but suddenly it started eating me alive and making me sick.

  23. Day 9 of many with a picture of my boy Lamp, and one of his MANY nicknames. Does your cat also have a dozen nicknames?

    Lamp is also known as Bub, Bubba, Bebe, or Bubby. All derived from Baby, because well, he’s the baby. Lol. #cat #catsofmastodon #orangecat #cats #orangecats #oneorangebraincell #ilovelamp #nicknames #catcontent #polydactyl #catlife #mastocats

  24. Day 8 of many with a picture of my boy Lamp, and one of his MANY nicknames. Does your cat also have a dozen nicknames?

    Lamp is also known as Mr Boppo. If I walk into my office (where his litter box is and his favorite spot on the couch ISN’T) he will often run up behind me and bop me in the calf in an attempt to redirect me maybe? He will then run away. #cat #catsofmastodon #orangecat #cats #orangecats #oneorangebraincell #ilovelamp #nicknames #catcontent #polydactyl #catlife #mastocats

  25. Day 7 of many with a picture of my boy Lamp, and one of his MANY nicknames. Does your cat also have a dozen nicknames?

    Lamp is also known as Captain Shovelpaws. Because he is polydactyl, he has absolute SCOOPS for front paws, and knows how to use them. We had to get him an completely enclosed litterbox so he didn’t chuck litter all over the apartment. #cat #catsofmastodon #orangecat #cats #orangecats #oneorangebraincell #ilovelamp #nicknames #catcontent #polydactyl #catlife #mastocats

  26. Day 6 of many with a picture of my boy Lamp, and one of his MANY nicknames. Does your cat also have a dozen nicknames?

    Lamp is also known as Mr Touch. He always has to be touching something. Always. #cat #catsofmastodon #orangecat #cats #orangecats #oneorangebraincell #ilovelamp #nicknames #catcontent #polydactyl #catlife #mastocats

  27. Day 5 of many with a picture of my boy Lamp, and one of his MANY nicknames. Does your cat also have a dozen nicknames?

    Lamp is also known as Big Chungus. Lamp loves to eat. He loves his treats, he loves his gravy tubes, and he LOVES his soup (what we call his broth packets). He once got a hold of his treat bag and chewed the bottom out and ate all the treats therein. #cat #catsofmastodon #orangecat #cats #orangecats #oneorangebraincell #ilovelamp #nicknames #catcontent #polydactyl #catlife #mastocats

  28. Day 4 of many with a picture of my boy Lamp, and one of his MANY nicknames. Does your cat also have a dozen nicknames?

    Lamp is also known as Malevolent Plastic Gargoyle. He’s almost 5 but he acts like he’s teething. We have to hide ANYTHING with plastic packaging or he chews it up. #cat #catsofmastodon #orangecat #cats #orangecats #oneorangebraincell #ilovelamp #nicknames #catcontent #polydactyl #catlife #mastocats

  29. Day 3 of many with a picture of my boy Lamp, and one of his MANY nicknames. Does your cat also have a dozen nicknames?

    Lamp is also known as 10-watt. A play on his name, because he’s not all that bright. Keepers of other orange cats will confirm this. Here’s a picture of me trying to teach him how to play #OpenTTD He was not receptive. #cat #catsofmastodon #orangecat #cats #orangecats #oneorangebraincell #ilovelamp #nicknames #catcontent #polydactyl #catlife #mastocats

  30. Day 2 of many with a picture of my boy Lamp, and one of his MANY nicknames. Does your cat also have a dozen nicknames?

    Lamp is also known as Mr Many Toes. He is polydactyl. He has 7 toes on each of his front feet, 6 toes on his back right, and 5 toes on his back left. That’s 25 toes. Nail trimming time is a chore! #cat #catsofmastodon #orangecat #cats #orangecats #oneorangebraincell #ilovelamp #nicknames #catcontent #polydactyl #catlife #mastocats

  31. Day 1 of many with a picture of my boy Lamp, and one of his MANY nicknames. Does your cat also have a dozen nicknames?

    Lamp is also known as Mr Screamo. He is a VERY vocal boy. Last night, he brought his treat container into my office while I was gaming to demand his daily quota of treatos. #cat #catsofmastodon #orangecat #cats #orangecats #oneorangebraincell #ilovelamp #nicknames #catcontent
