Addams Family Values

Today, I overheard my co-workers referring to me as "Uncle Fester". This is apparently my nickname around the office, and has been for nearly three years. I had no idea. FML

Fall

Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

Who doesn't love Uncle Fester?! Take it as a compliment. I'm sure he's one of everyone's favorite characters because he sure was mine. Maybe they're just saying they love you as well.

I bet they don't even know who Uncle Fester is, and only say that cause fester sounds funny. Just call someone else in the office lurch!

Own that monicker OP! Wear it with pride. Why not buy an absurdly long over coat and wear it to work as well! Weather permitting of course :)

It's hard to understand the fml without a knowledge of who the blue hell 'uncle fester' is.

From the Addams Family

oh thanks #35. I'm super sorry fml for not understanding a reference to a tv show I've never seen. Your downvotes are causing me terrible awful insomnia. Bitches.

Google images helps.

you can be my uncle you sound cool

i always wondered why people use or give out the nickname "uncle fester" as something negative...

oh man that would be absolutely terrible!! barf at both of those trolls! you're right, it would be insulting if someone compared me to them! ha :)

Not as cool as Uncle Buck

haha, Hansie.

My uncle's name is Victor. When I was younger, I used to call him "Uncle Fester" because I didn't know any better. My whole family now teases me about it.

Well are you naturally creepy or?

Is there a reason why you are called that.
