Invariably when you meet someone you almost always say "Oh hi, I'm ____. What's your name?" Then that person tells your there name, maybe Sarah or Kenneth or Langston Hughes or what have you, then they ask yours. A simple exchange.
This is what happens when I meet someone new.
Oh hi, I'm ____. What's your name?
Kipin, nice to meet you.
Kim?
Kipin.
Kibbi?
Kipin.
Kingpin?
Kipin.
Kippin?
Kipin.
Before you scoff and call hyperbole, I have numerous witnesses who will tell you that during my four years in the high school lunch line, I was always called either "Kingpin" or "Skippy". Maybe Kip like....twice.
