Okay, look I might not be the most social butterfly at school. I know I'm not the most academically gifted. My interests lie elsewhere and my brother knows that. My brother is also my teacher for the first time ever in a city that is not exactly big enough for people to easily forget things. In fact, it kinda sounds like everyone has the exact opposite problem.

So, why oh why, did he feel a need to just torpedo any kind of anonymity I may have been enjoying and lack of spotlight to go and blurt out my FAMILY nickname in class? Does he want me to just die from embarrassment? Did he need to give me more reason to not want to go to school?

I love my brother, but honestly - we needed to be at seperate schools for a reason. Or at least never the same class. It's called maintaining order!

Speaking from experience, older brothers tend to be too busy trying to prove their affection to think rationally about the recipient's feelings.

[bozhemoi]

Well, you're not wrong. I know he cares. But c'mon! In class!!

[invocate]

Older brothers are tactless like that. Mine once shouted out my childhood nickname in front of a panel of judges. I wanted to strangle him.

I had my revenge, eventually.

[bozhemoi]

What were you being judged on?

And what was your revenge?

having family as your teacher should be illegal cause its like favoritism... whats his embarrassing family nickname? ill call him that from now on instead of mr nelson

[bozhemoi]

right? but not favouritism. just awkward. well, his isn't even embarrassing he just uses it every day - foggy. his real name is franklin though and i think that's worse.

[buncho]

lmao franklin ok i think i can do that

[bozhemoi]

i owe you.

[scarlet_devil]

Well, that is simply a thing siblings do. At least you didn't get pelted by water balloons.

[bozhemoi]

My brother has a little more sense than that. Sometimes.

[scarlet_devil]

Ah, family. I suppose we must take the good with the annoying.

[bozhemoi]

Well, yes. It's not like we choose family. And he has been a pretty good big brother otherwise.

[maidofmistakes]

At least it wasn't horrible family stories...

[bozhemoi]

Yet. I mean, this could just be the beginning.

Have you had family teach you?

[maidofmistakes]

Nope, never. Does it happen a lot?

[bozhemoi]

Not really, it's the first time since my brother became a teacher. But then New York had more schools.

[rebellions]

boo fucking hoo
don't you people have bigger problems in your life than crying over a nickname of all the things

[bozhemoi]

I'm not crying over it, and yeah, there's bigger problems like finding myself on the crazy app but sometimes you just gotta get stuff off your chest.

[rebellions]

don't you have a diary for that or something?

[Clearly Ragna doesn't understand how social media is supposed to work.]

[devilsadvocato]

It was an honest mistake. I bet none of the other students even remember it. You're kinda making this more memorable by reminding them with this post.

[bozhemoi]

I had to whine about it somewhere! I still need to soundproof my bedroom before I get hit the drums. And throwing paint at the canvas didn't work.

[devilsadvocato]

You couldn't go to your bro and remind me to be extra careful not to slip up next time?
Like Nattie is an embarrassing nickname. I say embrace it! As you know I have done more than just embrace the nickname you gave me. I AM Foggy. It's going to be written on my headstone or whatever can the family and my hot wife/husband puts me in.

[mercurio]

lol sounds like a healthy dosage of big bro trolling if you ask me
what's so bad about a nickname?

[bozhemoi]

but he should keep it out of school. he gives me enough crap about my homework, now this?
are you kidding? it's disgustingly cute. it's awful. it wouldn't be so bad if it was cool.

[mercurio]

yeah totally screw cute stuff i just want people to see me for the real punk rocker i am

[how do u,, talk to kids younger than you without seeming lame??]

what would be a cooler nickname?
