What kind of grown man has a name like "Scooter"? It sounds kind of

[yellowcanine]

girlimanish, no?

[Texasgal]

1. Sounds more like a

DUMBFUCK!!!!

:evilgrin:

[yellowcanine]

3. There is that also. good point.

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

2. It's stupid preppy fratboyish crap. You'll note that Libby is an Andover

and Yale grad as well. I didn't read whether he was in Skull and Bones too or not.

[Lone_Star_Dem]

4. It sounds childish to me

No wonder he turned out like he did. :P

[Not_Giving_Up]

5. CNN actually did a story on the name today

Apparently, it became his nickname as a child, given to him by his father, for the way he scooted around his crib. I believe it was 360 that this was on.

6. Sounds almost as strange as

Rush.

[NYC Liberal]

7. So we have a "Scooter", "Dick", formerly "Colin", "Rice"...any others?

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

9. We have an insane clown too

Is there even the slightest bit of sanity in those eyes?

[lpbk2713]

11. Last time I saw eyes like those ....

Norman Bates was behind them holding a knife.

18. Hey, It will get worse as time goes on -

wait 20 or 30 years or so when the insiders covering up for the Repuke Pres and VP of the future are
"Hayden," "Cayden," "Jayden," "Madison," and "Rhiannon!"

[RevCheesehead]

8. This kind:

[elshiva]

16. That Scooter was cool. I wish we had some muppets in D.C.

[RevCheesehead]

19. Like these guys?

[KitchenWitch]

10. An overaged frat boy

[MrScorpio]

12. Welcome to W.A.S.P. World

Bill Maher hit the head on the nail on his show tonight


That's where the "Scooters" of the world come from

[Robeson]

"Welcome to W.A.S.P. World".....

...BINGO. Scooter, Buff, Biff, well you know the picture. It's a WASP blue-blood frat-boy country club thing.

[samplegirl]

13. Sounds Redneck

and that he is

[Scooter24]

14. *cries*

:cry:


Edit: I got the nickname in Highschool. Was at a party and a friend of mine, who was a football player, started calling me scooter. Eventually, the whole team knew me as "scooter" and from there the school.


:patriot:

[KitchenWitch]

15. there there

:hug:

[elshiva]

17. Some said it was because he scooted across the floor

when he was a baby, so it is a baby name...

[BuelahWitch]

21. Did he have worms?

Isn't that why a dog "scoots"?

[skygazer]

20. I called my son "Scooter" when he was little

But I damn well stopped about the time he went to school and I ONLY did it in those "snuggly" moments when he wanted to be babied - I sure as hell wouldn't let any kid of mine, male or female, go through life being known as Scooter.
