Actually, I was a bit of a wiseass, and was always mocking the fraternity brothers (which the pledges aren't supposed to do.) They would repeatedly say to me "You're dead, maggot!" to the point where they finally decided that that should be my nickname. It has stuck and, 16 years after graduation, I am still called "dead" by everybody I knew in college.

LMAO! Great story. Well, in case y'all ever wondered...

That's a weird nickname scenario. If you died of alcohol poisoning at a frat gathering, then rose like a Phoenix ... "Wow, he's dead. That amazing mofo is dead. I'll never forget that dead tadpole. Wait, he's alive and breathing! He's belching in technicolor! He's not dead, so he IS DEAD!" That I understand.

A nickname based on annoying and disruptive behavior? They happen, but they aren't given by folks wanting you around their vicinity.
