Nickname St.
Last night Hub and I were laughing
At the fact that we have given
EVERYONE on our street
(with the exception of a few)
A nickname
Let me give you a tour of our block.
The first house on the left
Is the Flabby Fireman
And Mouthy, his wife.
Both are relatively harmless
But I can only take either of them
In small amounts.
Beside them is Jen
(She's one of the few)
With Cletus
(His real name starts with a C, but we always forget..and Cletus suits him)
Next to them is Rob & Amy
(Again, they are one of the few)
Up until about 2 months ago
They were simply known as
Walmart Boy & His Wife
(He manages a Walmart)
Who else?
Let's see...
We have Bad Grass Boy (water that hay, would ya?)
Chuckles the Clown (would it kill ya to smile?)
Mario (speeds around the block)
The Potters(we swear they have a marjuana grow-up in their basement)
Ally (the skinny chick with 3 kids 5 houses down)
Frick & Frack (2 older men that shoot you looks if your foot brushes a blade of their grass)
Frosty (the retired fellow across the street that uses his snowblower without a hat or hood on and is completely snow-covered afterwards)
Mailman Johnny (on workman's comp because he twisted his ankle on his route, but has no problem laying unistone or sealing his driveway or doing stuff at home)
Pervy McPervason (has girly pictures all posted up in a corner of his garage)
And us.
I wonder what they call us?
I'm going to keep my ears open...

How funny! We do that too! The mystery people who receive UPS packages everyday, the witness protection family who never go out. The hermits who use their garage door opener to get in and then close the door before they get out of their car. I need coffee. I know there are more names! I'm thinking they call me the Bib gal, more than likely :-) Hopefully, not worse! LOL!
I think you would be Lucy and Ricky! LMAO
We do that too! Ha ha... OMG... those are some good nicknames tho. In our first neighbourhood, we got our name Rumour Millers. Our friends across the street were Lying Langs. This lady down the street who was rail thin - you could see every bone in her body and she had a freaky neck. Hence Creepy neck lady.
lmao...this is too funny. Back when I was a kid still at home we had this neighbor lady that "knew" everyone's business. We all called her "nib-nose-nora". I think every neighborhood has atleast one of those...lol
I affectionately referred to the guy across the street who would park is big Catalac smack dab in the middle of a space big enough for two cars as "Dickhead." (Sorry if that sounds mean but if the shoe fits....)
We had the people of the perpetual yard sale, never did know their names.
I have a real bad habit of tagging someone with a nickname and then slipping up when I see them.
we had "King Reggie" because he owned three duplexes on our street,
"Little Lucy" because she was the tiniest cutest lady and I loved her to pieces,
"Crackhead Teresa", well you can guess on that one...,
and "Bike Guy" because he had a sign that said "no peddlers" and the kids thought that it meant that bike riding wasn't allowed near his house !

i love that everyone does this.
we have Biscuit Lady, who gathered stale bread i put out for the birds and placed it next to my car). her boyfriend has become Biscuit Boy.
there's also the Limb-n-Boughs, a couple who consistently trim their trees and the neighbors' trees in order to get a better view.
i don't know their name for me. so i'll just imagine that it contains the word "goddess". i can live with that.
