I'm big. I was 270 but my doctor's nurse got in my face and told me if I didn't lose some weight she was going to give me a noogie. So, now I'm 255 and working on it.
My name is Michael (technically Michel, but it got changed by the nurses because they thought my mom had mispelt it). My little sister called me Mick, because she couldn't say Michel. Mickey Finn was a Disney movie character (Davy Crockett) and since I was bigger than the average kid, Mickey Finn was attached to me. Later, when I was a young, underpaid trooper in the Army, I started tending bar part time. The bouncers were also part time and I sometimes ended up without one. One night one of the patrons started acting up and another patron told him to behave himself before the bartender comes out from behind the bar and gives you a Big Mickey. It' just kinda stuck since then.
I guess if I lose enough weight to make my doctor's nurse happy, I'll have to change my screen name to Little Mick, or something. Maybe, Middle-Sized? Oh, well, I think I can wait.

Many years ago while watching some old 'Saturday afternoon movies' with my kids, my daughter claimed I was not a mean as Godzilla. I replied back that I could eat Godzilla for breakfast. My son, (4 or 5 at the time) started telling people that, "I ate Godzilla". I started using that as a shift change sign-off when I worked for NSA. When the Internet became mainstream, I used it to setup my first Yahoo! email account.

My son is of the age of Star Wars (the second round). He always wanted to play the Jedi so I had to be the Sith. Thus the rise of Darth Dad. Bane of 10yo Jedi.
My cubicle channels Darth Vader thanks to my son.
