    Well, I got called lightbulb for awhile when I had my hair dyed blonde. I had lots of nicknames. I think my favourite was probably "Spiderman" lol. When I was like 13, I forgot to shave my armpits one day and when I lifted my arms up and my friends saw I hadn't shaved they started calling me Spiderman. It made me super paranoid at the time but now I can look back and laugh!
    And my family used to call me yaya when I was younger. I think it's from a song, or something.

    OH, I didn't realize we were doing mean ones? I don't remember anyone calling me mean nicknames to my face, but my family used to call my brother Blubber-boy before he became vegan... And I think he sometimes called me Spoonhead.
    Personally, I wasn't specifically listing mean ones. There just weren't any nice ones.

    I had quite a few. One of my favorites was "Futon." I owned a terrible 70s era poncho I bought from the Salvation Army and I loved it. When sitting cross-legged, I would stretch it down over my knees to keep me warm. One day a guy I knew only casually walked up and told me I looked like a futon and that he wanted to sit on me. So I invited him to sit a spell. From that day forward, we were the best of trouble buddies. I called him "Lothar of the Hill People" and he called me "Futon." Still does to this day.

    My other top two were Bubbles (my ditzy alter ego) and Griselda.

    Mine was 'Spidergirl' because my name is Charlotte. Unflattering nicknames: 'Bean Pole', 'Toothpick', 'String Bean'. Mostly because I was awkwardly skinny until well into my twenties! :D

    "Laura the Lesbian". Yes. That was 2nd grade. I didn't even know what a lesbian was...

    I bet they had no idea what a lesbian was, either! :ohwell:

    Sadly, I don't think that was a nice nickname. I hope your true friends didn't call you that.

    Hmm I never heard of biscuit being a mean nickname. I can see doughboy, but not biscuit.

    Aquaman. I was given it twice in fact, first of all in Secondary School (11-16) and then in College (17-19). Nobody from my school went to my college, and yet, the name reappered there.

    Awwwww. This is a "Mean Nickname Thread? Okay, in that case:

    - "Big A," which could be for my first name, but depending on who said it, would also mean Big *kitten*
    - "Ken," some girls called me that coincidentally in high school, and a different set when I went to Cali for a year...because they said I looked like a "black Ken doll." I took offense!!
    - "Human Microchip," I was a nerd, and was meant to be offensive, but I liked it!!
    - "Terminator," because there was a rumor that I was taking steroids and I supposedly walked like a robot (the rumor was because my older brother was a popular bloke, so he spread a little lie to see what would happen). I played football and baseball, and both teams would hymn the Terminator theme whenever I approached (and exagerate my walking motion)... Jack-Arses!!!
