THE MOST POPULAR ONE, at least at my church, is Mary-dog, or Mar dog!!! Everyone at church calls me that... Even my pastor calls me that sometimes!!! That nickname got started waaaaaaay back in the day when we were all in the youth group still....and we'd go to Rawhide and it's a LOOOOOONG STORY buuuuut this cowboy and I we kinda got into it during a show...he was trying to do this trick question where you say ten. ten times, so I DID IT! Then he says, what is an ALUMINOM can made out of??? Welllllll most people say TIN...because I guess they just said ten, ten times...buuuuuut being somewhat airheaded...TIN didn't even register in my head!!! WIthout hesitating, i just responded with ALUMINOM...DUH!!! And everyone started laughing and he was like all mad and then I was like asking everyone, what was the big deal? They were like, cuz most people say TIN! I'm like why would you say tin??? when he said it was aluminom??? They were like, Its a BRAIN TEASER!!!! Buuuuuut you didn't EVEN GET that it was!!!
.
Anyways, the cowboy started calling me bad Miss Mary or bad dog Mary...and would always hug me like we were bff's when he'd see me there...Rawhide was a HUGE hang out for us as teens!!! Then Sam ALWAYS called me bad dog Mary-then it just got shortened to Mar-dog, then when he got married his wife, who was in the youth group too, Janellie Bean, always called me Mar-dog, then when he had kids they automatically started calling me Mar-dog, and now it's basically the whole church!!! LOL
