Top this Title...in fewer words...lol...(NO PO)

Post by Z is for Zangie » Sun May 15, 2022 2:24 am

If you had to create a title for yourself describing who you are or what your job is, what would it be? Wordplay and humor are encouraged...lol...Angie, the Amiable would be one of mine..."Bean Counter', Keeper of the Ledger and money manager for a working one. Glass half full, an eternal optimist and hopeless romantic for another personal one.

This is Prince Phillip's actual whole title...( 133 words)

His Royal Highness The Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, Earl of Merioneth, Baron Greenwich, Royal Knight of the Most Noble Order of the Garter, Extra Knight of the Most Ancient and Most Noble Order of the Thistle, Member of the Order of Merit, Grand Master and First and Principal Knight Grand Cross of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire, Knight of the Order of Australia, Additional Member of the Order of New Zealand, Extra Companion of the Queen’s Service Order, Royal Chief of the Order of Logohu, Extraordinary Companion of the Order of Canada, Extraordinary Commander of the Order of Military Merit, Lord of Her Majesty’s Most Honourable Privy Council, Privy Councillor of the Queen’s Privy Council for Canada, Personal Aide-de-Camp to Her Majesty, Lord High Admiral of the United Kingdom.

It's spelled "Tarmaque" but it's pronounced "Throatwobbler Mangrove."

Referring to me as Your Highness may be a stretch, but these will work just as well.

Sorry, I've been pronouncing it tarmac all this time. I think it's cooler anyway

Should be "Tarmaque the Magnificent" owing to the fact that there was a time in my past where I crashed my motorcycle a lot. I wanted to use "Tarmac" as an internet handle, but someone already had it. Hence the alternate spelling.

@ T.
I have always been of the opinion that anyone who doesn't want to wear a helmet should be allowed not to wear a helmet, and that their insurance company should be allowed to deny any claims related to head injuries if they aren't wearing one. I have similar opinions as to seat belt use.
