Watching a rerun of “Cheers” last night and ran into this quote:
Cliff Clavin: You see, Tiny, uh, you know, calling you Tiny, a guy of your, you know, girth, is what we in the comedy profession call a juxtaposition. Right? Juxtaposition! You see, it’s like calling a bald guy Curly, a fat guy Slim, a tall guy…
[Cliff waits for an answer from Tiny, which isn’t forthcoming]
Cliff Clavin: …Shorty!
Tiny the Bouncer: I like that. You’re Smart.
Cliff Clavin: Why, thank you.
Tiny the Bouncer: No, that’s your new nickname. Get it?
Calling yourself something instead of being proven to be that by others is way hubristic and presumptuous. Also works with slogan’s too like “fair and balanced” said so by the company. Not anyone else.

FB wouldn’t like it if her wish were granted, but then maybe she wouldn’t realise it either!
