  I was corrected in that he used allegorical terms, but still. Stuff like that can also be considered a nickname.

  Even without Shakespeare I can think of “agua,” “souse,” “sky nectar,” and “wet” all of which are nicknames I heard in the Chicago area in the 80s and 90s.

  I didn’t know “souse” also referred to pickling brine or a drunkard until literally 20 minutes ago.

  …can someone get this guy a history book? Shakespeare alone used 14.

  Actual conversation had with my wife, who was watching me okay near the end:

  “That chick is cute. I bet her romance is adorable!”

  “She’s aromantic and asexual, you can’t romance her.”

  “I bet her quest line is fun”

  “Nope. It’s a really boring fetch quest where you set her up on a date with some bland woman old enough to be her mother. She is also very obviously sexually and romantically attracted to this woman.”

  “…huh.”
