Nicknames

The cats all have nicknames which I use from time to time.
Mycah… well, she’s Mycah, but from time to time, she is “Your Majesty.” She demands it.
Kismet is often referred to as “Trip” due to his habitual efforts to stay half a step in front of me wherever I go. He is also occasionally referred to as either “Nosey” or “OCD Boy” for his habit of poking his nose into everything and his obsession with removing objects from tabletops.
Packet is the inscrutable one, but he can’t avoid being called “Fluffy Buddy” — because, let’s face it, he’s about as fluffy as cats get, and he does like lap time, unlike either Mycah or Kismet.
However, in moments of frivolity, he bears the moniker “Captain Fluffytoes.” I’ll let you be the judge as to why.

CNN clearly isn’t keeping a tight enough leash on all its staff. I’m not sure how they let this slip through the cracks and onto the airwaves:

Whoa.
Any bets on if/when CNN willl try to have it yanked?
