To Custom Title... or NOT to Custom Title??

And then, whilst visiting my local rubbish dump looking for records in the little shed where objects get placed before being sent to the crusher, at the bottom on an icecream container full of gawdy costume jewellery and broken Chinese quartz monstrosities, I find this:

It was on a tragic elasticated 'silver' band. I had the B&S at home (the Chronostop came on it), it's too small for my wrist but in my humble opinion, they are a match made in heaven.

I know absolutely nothing about this watch, who owned it, how it ended up at the dump, but I know it is in absolutely perfect running order, it lights up like a galaxy when the evening sun hits the dial, and it was the best $5 I have ever spent.

And, one has to agree to use it, if there is group consensus, whether they are fond of it or not.

Note to self: in the future, think carefully about suggesting rules...

I think custom titles should be given and not self awarded, there's no humour in that and IMHO it screams of the ' Me Culture '.

The humour here is one of the key reasons it's a great place to hang out, let's not lose that

In the Navy (any Navy)?

I thought it was all fun and games, interrupted by brief periods of boredom.

This has the potential to be a lot of fun.

Based on perceived forum persona, a person can nominate a nickname for someone else, and, others can do as well. Then the group could decide which is most fitting. And, one has to agree to use it, if there is group consensus, whether they are fond of it or not. Obviously, nothing derogatory, passive-aggressive, or unkind.
