Brilliant idea! My go to would have been making more work for them. I'd tell people I changed my mind about my nickname until they got sick of me and I'd get in trouble. If I had some friends who were down for the cause it would have been a nightmare. Cause I'm the type of comrade who, once in detention and they're trying to be real serious and talk sternly with me, if I had a single audience member who would have found it funny I'd double down on the bit

Tangentially, I credit some of my success and enjoyment of combat sports to this disposition. If you lack the authority to simply throw the book at me because we're sparring, then you better have an answer to my silly question (e.g. what if I just push you?) or I'm going to win by outsmarting you.

At near peak toxic, you can club the head in an attempt to get control of the back of it in wrestling. It's started many fights that wind up with the person getting clubbed getting DQ'd for retaliation.

Are teachers required to call people by their nicknames if the parents sign for it? I think it's time for Peterucio (Not Petrucio) to make an appearance
