I don't know why I have these goggles

Apr 28, 2005 14:40

I've recently been mulling over the various nicknames we'd given people while at Alfred and I noticed one trend. [affliction/condition] [incorrect name]

Case in point:

Autism Jane
Malaria Joe
Scabies Lisa
Botulism Gregory
and my personal favorite, Uncontrollable falling down Mark.

How about "Massive Headwound Harry"?

Don't forget 'Evil Ethnic Pinto'. It also works, though being ethnic isn't really on the level with 'scabies'. Or is it!?!?!?

Old Football Face [Old football=affliction][Face=incorrect name]
Thrice Mongo [Thrice=affliction][Mongo=incorrect name]

Unfortunately, Man-boobs does not fit this category.

Well, actually, I think man-boobs fits quite well. Moreso than the others you put forth.

Consider that it's one or the other. Either he's afflicted with boobs, or man is an incorrect name.

Allow me to add Magic Joe to the list. Though Joe actually was his name.

Man-boobs, like Donkey Balls, is both affliction and incorrect name, all rolled into one. Like a burrito.

The Girl Who Can't Walk Right and Mr. Mosey, however, do not fit the category. Her nickname doesn't include a fake name, but does apply an accurate aflliction. Mr. Mosey is a fake name, but it's not so much an affliction as it is just how he likes to walk.

There is an actually DONKEY-BALL tournament in Littleton, NH. I have yet to figure out what it is they do at said tournament.
In terms of Alfred nicknames, my personal favorites were:
ASS-in-the-Front...sorry just an affliction.
Corn-Nuts
and...who can forget?
Industrial Tank Ass.

Donkey-Ball is basketball played from donkeyback. There are professional organizations that do only this as a fund raiser for schools and community groups. Honest to God.

Holy hell.

Oh, yeah, sorry about the second drunken message...if that was you.

Indeed that *was* me, and indeed, as before, it was hilarious and totally unnecessary to apologize for.
