Wait till you stare into the abyss and it stares back. You won’t be worried about Tripp and his parents anymore.

You have a kid? You gave them a nickname?

He’s got a name. That’s what we call him. We call him like “dude” sometimes,

That’s fine. Like calling your friend, “hey buddy”

That’s really weird
calling someone ‘J’ who is named James is weird?

My kids are not named Blue, Chartreuse or James - but I tried to make it easier for you to understand.

That’s just a generic name that lots of people use in passing.

I’m not expecting you to understand the difference based on how pissed you are for being called out.
