Close. Yes, very close but alas, no. Not by a mile.
Exult in your existence, because that very process has blundered unwittingly on its own negation. Only a small, local negation, to be sure: only one species, and only a minority of that species; but there lies hope. [...] Stand tall, Bipedal Ape. The shark may outswim you, the cheetah outrun you, the swift outfly you, the capuchin outclimb you, the elephant outpower you, the redwood outlast you. But you have the biggest gifts of all: the gift of understanding the ruthlessly cruel process that gave us all existence [and the] gift of revulsion against its implications.

If the first two words are correct, I have some other ideas for the "R", but I don't want to offend.
"The French caused the war [Persian Gulf war, 1991]" - Ned
"you people who bash Bush have no appreciation for one of the great presidents in our history." - Ned
"I wish I had gay sex in the boy scouts" - Dissident
I know what the R stands for.
Quite mundane.
It's very common.

Matz(i) by some family members
Professor by some friends
Reiseleiter (Tourist Guide) by other fans of my favorite football team.
Cobra by some other of those fans.
Johnboy by two colleagues who shared a flat with me - they were jim-bob and "dad"...
"The world is too small in Vorarlberg". Austrian ex-vice-chancellor Hubert Gorbach in a letter to Alistar [sic] Darling, looking for a job...
"Let me break this down for you, fresh from algebra II. A 95% chance to win 5 times means a (95*5) chance to win = 475% chance to win." Wiglaf, Court jester or hayseed, you judge.
a person at my lost job advised me against revealing past nicknames, as those people will use it all the time. But I'll say them, despite my fear of embarrassment.
Beavis
Garth
both because I have(had) blonde hair. In high school, my hair was a lot like Garth's, and I wore glasses too- though I didn't wear the plastic rimmed ones.
purple
willie mays
these last 2 are based off my last name. It shouldn't be hard to figure out given those 2 clues.
gimp (not one of the nicknames I enjoyed).
hesher (in junior high school)
crazy (not a nickname I enjoyed either- all because I threatened to slash some chick's tires- I was an alcoholic back in those days)
that's all I can remember anyways.
If you feel you must call me one, call be Beavis or hesher. Those are the 2 nicknames I prefer. Hesher was more of an insult back in my junior high school, because I went to school with a bunch of preppies, but I've grown out of all the torment they gave me in junior high school. The word doesn't bother me now (but it did back then)
