Djinna – Honestly, none of my friends call me Marvo. Although I did have a friend in high school call me Marvoot.

I’ve had friends that were able to semi-self-select the nicknames of “Hot Pot” and “Hot Pocket,” due to their favored cooking instrument and lunch food, respectively. Both were female, don’t know if women are more indulgent about letting their friends say “I kinda want this nickname” and actually using it, or what. But, a girl on my hall in college said in freshman orientation that she had always wanted the nickname JoJo, as she was a Jane and hated being “plain Jane,” and so we gave it to her.

In general, though, I don’t think nicknames that are significantly longer than what they’re trying to replace have any chance of sticking.

The big boxes of Pop-Tarts are on sale this week around these parts, had been meaning to ask the man which flavors he prefers. Apparently, we’re both S’mores and Brown Sugar people. Good to know. But, based on the strength of your review for the Hot Fudge Sundae, and trust you’ve inspired from the quality of your reviews over the years, I may have to get one of the big boxes of those, w/o first trying the small box.

Abby – I don’t know what would’ve happened to me if I didn’t get sugar in the morning. I probably would’ve flunked a few grades, but I would probably wouldn’t have been husky.

Melis – If you won’t eat them, that means more for us. :-)

cybele – So what were the other names they called you, just in case I want to call you names. ;-)

Melanie – I wouldn’t strike a woman, but I would pay one to slap me around.

Josie – I know how I could get you to like Pop-Tarts, but it will probably add five pounds. Just get two chocolatey Pop-Tarts and some vanilla ice cream. Plop some vaniila ice cream on one of the Pop-Tarts and then put the other one on top of it and voila, Pop-Tart Ice Cream sandwich.

Goob – Either that or I really love fondue.

Tamara – Toasty deliciousness!!!

If you introduced yourself as hot chocolate then I would think to myself “does that mean he shits in his pants a lot?” but I’m a prick sometimes. My name is Jodi so I wanted to have the nickname Jo-Jo in college but I never went so it definitely didn’t stick. Every once in a while I still say “hey I am Jo-Jo the po-ta-to”

I too, grew up too poor to be able to be able to eat Pop Tarts with any regularity. Which is why I find myself coveting them even though I’m disappointed with them everytime I eat them (and trust me, it is very, very RARE that I’m disappointed with food). And this is why this is Marvo’s the Hot Chocolate Pocket Rocket’s (nice Melanie!)review blog and not Josie’s. Because if it was, every single edible product review would simply read “Yummy. Yummy. Want more. 5 out of 5.”

Marvo, from now one you’ll be the Hot Chocolate Pocket Rocket to me. Because it sounds slightly messy and sexy, which is how you strike me, too. Not that you strike me, you’re not that kind of guy, right?

I’ve started eating Strawberry Pop Tarts lately.

I tried to get kids to call me Strawberry Girl as a nickname when I was a kid. Sadly I never quite shook the other names they chose to call me.

Worst nickname ever? Mooolissa. Which is even more horrifying now since I have become rather bovine in shape since the birth of the “Little Woman”.

Thus, no 200 calorie cardboard snacks for me.

I have never had a poptart. I blame my mother, she wouldn’t let us eat sugary stuff in the morning.

Nickname bestowed by friend’s bratty little sister: Abby Normal

The only time I ever eat Poptarts is when I’m broke, with out groceries, and the only other edible option is mustard. In these desperate times I enjoy the Blueberry.

Regarding nick names: I had no say in any mine. GeNatalia. Natalian Sausage. Slut.

Webmiztris – Yeah, I didn’t get them on sale, but that’s okay. I just have to whore my body to pay off the $3.39. ;-)

Barb – YES! Hot Fudge Sundae Pop-Tarts is the shiznit!!! I could taste the possible fake marshmallows, but I don’t really like my hot chocolate with marshmallows.

Sara – Sadly, Calories = goodness.

Meldi – I think my favorite all-time Pop-Tart was the frosted Apple Cinnamon Pop-Tarts. Unfortunately, they don’t exist anymore.

Tickkid – Mmm…Breasts.

Zadillo – Sounds like a prank we would do at work. We made a throne out of Pepsi cans for my co-worker and made him look for his actual chair by placing cans of Pepsi around our building.

tanyetta – Sure they make my teeth hurt a little, but I likes the Pop-Tarts

Stefani – How many chocolate Pop-Tarts are there? I think I’ve reviewed them all. Smores, Chocolate Chip, Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough, Hot Fudge Sundae, Mint Chocolate Chip, and a few more I’m probably forgetting.

Domokun – Oooh, so many bad things come to mind when I think “Hot Pocket,” like Paris Hilton’s vagina.

Chuck – Sexual chocolate definitely wouldn’t have taken off. The only nickname with the word “sexual” in it that would’ve taken off is “Sexual Deficiency.”

Terry – As long as no one tells me what’s natural and what’s artificial, I’ll still eat them.

stephanie – I only like strudel’s because it’s fun to say it in my Arnold Schwarzenegger voice.

tanya – I think I know what would make chocolate Pop-Tarts more desirable by you — having them dipped in real chocolate.

Brie – Yes, Pop-Tarts have been popping out a whole lot of varieties recently. I think K-Fed and his Super Sperm have been poppin’ Pop-Tart, if you know what I’m sayin’.
