What are your thoughts on "Parko" as a nickname for our very own Danny Parkins? McNeil is pushing this one pretty hard, and some bored members have already taken to it, but what do the MANY think?

Is there something better out there?

Danny P? Park-Park (per Spiegel)? Just plain old "Parkins"?

Not great.

He's already an adult that chooses to go by Danny.

Nice melding of your non-existent legal career and your aborted radio career into one thread.

(Note: SCOTUS has ruled on abortion so there is nothing wrong with you making that choice)

He kind of looks like a "Timmy."

His name is Chad Grobstein, that's my headcanon, and that's final.

You don't get to pick your own nickname. Parko it is.

I like Parko. For the simple fact that it pisses people off.

I dont think Park Park came from Spiegel. It came from someone they interviewed that was on with Parkins while in KC and he called him that and Spiegel ran with it

Agreed. A nickname should be shorter or something different and funny. McNeil - Mac. Parkins and Parko take the same amount of time to say.

Not Lebanese, Blanche. Lesbian.

If we go with Parko, can they call the afternoon show: "Mac, Parko, and Tanny"?

Right. This is why Parkins does not like it I bet. It makes him sound like he was just slid into the "Jurko Slot".

It is way easier to say than Parkins, though, so I can dig it.

Plus, I like giving people nicknames that they don't like.
