				Synonyms for "Buddy" or "Chief" etc.
			 I need help.  My friends and I at work have a game where we try to always one up one another by calling each other by one of those annoying nicknames that older, usually clueless people, call younger people.  Examples are Buddy, Chief, Tiger, Sport, Pal, etc.  It has become quite a fun way to break up the mundane day to day b.s of office life.  However, our creative juices have apparently dried up and we are getting a lot of repeats lately.  I ask you to help me to reinstill comedy into my daily drudgery by giving me some ideas for new names... (I am hoping that enough people post...this could be good). |
