- RichardHeart 10y ago"The term, however, was quickly embraced by Wisconsinites and is now a point of pride" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cheesehead https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cheesehead I'm ok with a substitute example for an acceptable group nickname if you have one on offer.
- johnchristopher 10y agoHaha, I got owned :D. Not living in the US, not from the US and cheesehead sounded like an insult to my ears. Still I believe that not every nicknames or abbreviations is a good thing.
