UncleNasty -> RE: Nicks (1/10/2009 9:35:03 AM)

There was a ridculous fellow who posted on another group forum I belong to demanding the highest levels of respect form the outset. None of us knew him from Adam's cat. So we gave him what for. Respect must be earned kind of stuff. Can't get respect for just self assigning a title of "Lord," or "Master." I sent him a rather lengthy response along those lines. My salutation was "Most sincerely, Sir Lord Knight Master Dom Glenn." Yes, we all really howled on that one. In the end he went away and none of us ever heard from him again. I'd not given myself a nick up to that point and everyone simply knew me as Glenn. But several weeks after that incident I decided I wanted one. I'd shot myself in the foot in terms of a "Lord" type name. So I mused on it for a few weeks. One day "Uncle Nasty" just kind of popped into my mind. It made me chuckle as it poked some fun at all of those that seem to take themselves too seriously (don't we all iknow some of them?). I liked that aspect. I liked that I'd never heard of another Uncle Nasty. So I adopted it, or it me. Uncle Nasty (and if that makes you grin, giggle or chuckle or little that's OK - one of the intentions in fact)
