That makes no sense. If people started calling you Tranny because they saw a funny video of a cross dresser that danced like you, how exactly is that not a joke at your expense?

It doesn't matter who you're laughing at. You're giving him a nickname that he cannot possibly want (for reasons that aren't very clear to me).



It's not the name, it's what's associated with it.
Understand?

When you see the video, you understand (or should) that it's not about the name, or the narrator, but about the baddazz-ness of TM.

Dude, I've seen the video, and I get the analogy...I really do.

But the nickname is what's at issue here. It's undeniably terrible. Why would people want this to stick?

Now let's pick out a nickname for the fat Golden Girl.



If she's that fat lets call her Shady. Then we can rent her out at the beach for shade.

I've said since the first time I heard it. Honey badger is some ridiculously stupid shite. Can't believe it's a surprise to some of y'all that he doesn't like it. It's f'n stupid.



You sure like the word stupid a whole lot for a dummy.

Okay, I'm going to go ahead and say it. If he is offended by the name, he clearly isn't as cool as the Honey Badger. Honey Badger don't give a shite about anyone who declares their own nickname. That's some silly shite on the level of Rickey Henderson.

If you think it's so great, why don't you be the honey badger?

Ridiculous that an organically derived nickname (via genuine fan respect and admiration) like "Honey Badger," which received like 90% support (in favor) from this forum, largely because of the video with oddly contrasting narration, still is being debated.

I liked the nickname because it was original and relevant (e.g...."he doesn't give a s**t, he just takes what he wants" is freaking hilarious and RELEVANT), but I guess too much for such a narrow fan base.
The problem with the "Honey Badger" nickname is that it has to be explained. You should not have to explain a nickname. It should be self explanatory. HB is not.
