But you don't use your numbers...I think that's the difference. Guys who use Jr. aren't generally douchey (I'm pretty fond of Robert Downey, Jr.), but if they openly use II or III or IV (etc.), then it always seems like an asshole red flag.
Runners run.

Not sure he gets to choose whether to use the numerals or not in an official court filing, if that's his legal name.
Indeed.
Also: "asshole red flag". My ESL brain ponders that phrase in all kinds of ways.

Heh. Officially I happen to be Eugenio VIII. It is still true, alas.

Guys with roman numerals after their names are invariably douchebags. It's true.
Ha! My husband is a II. It is part of his legal name on his birth certificate. I think it's silly, but hold it against his mother, who has odd pockets of pretentiousness.
My son is technically the 4th D. Ivan, but they all have different first names, so no #s after any of the names. We mostly kept up with the tradition for fun...Deucle, Darrell, Derek, Dane...
Deucle?
It's Dutch. Not any worse than the Gunnar and Soren(s) in my family, I guess. Though he always went by D. or Duke, so I think maybe he thought his name was lame.

I believe the next time we meet up I shall call thee Sir Eugenio VIII

An emperor and a duke and you guys don't like trifecta's handle?

more EXTREEEEEEEME stuff
Get with it, old man. Nothing is extreme (or even XTREME) anymore. Everything is EPIC!!!!!! Absolutely everything. Epic runs, Epic rides, Epic races. It is kind of like the word "classy". If someone uses the word, you can guarantee that it is not.
I got mud on me at a gimmicky race. It was Epic!!!!

Hey, what could go wrong?
My ads "Milky Way." I feel not much can go wrong with a candy bar. And suddenly I'm hungry.
The tangents are moot.
Set the bar low. Crawl under it.
