I'm selective about who calls me what. It's hard to tell someone who's presumptively started calling you by a nickname to stop, though. Especially if you know them or work with them. They take it personally.
Spike's Bitches 45: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
I don't like anyone calling me "Rob" and I will nip that shit in the bud. One old friend does, but only because both he and I know that it's a shortened version of "Robbie Bobbie Boo," his ACTUAL nickname for me. Hard to explain that one.
Some people call me "Toddy". Once.
For weeks, my co-worker was calling me "Sunily" until I asked her to please stop. She was very sad.

Oh dear. My mother has discovered that "Date My Single Kid" site. She says she's just looking for someone for my sister, because I've got enough going on in my life right now, but she keeps finding people that she thinks will be perfect for me.

I also plot their demise.
I'm pretty sure anyone who thinks this should get punched in the head. And not in a fun way.
Wait, what?
There's a fun way?
Dammit, honey. Why is it you only show up in here when I am bitching about my MiL?? Do you have some sort of strange "Mother Smack Talking" alarm in your head? And if so, how do you sleep when it goes off all the time?
Baby, why do you think I'm so tired?
"I know she's crazy. Nigh on forty years I've known her. You got NOTHING. Go back to sleep."
Poor baby. You want we should get it disconnected? By which I mean our phone and email connections?
