20 years ago when I lived in California I was N6CDA, (California's Dumbest 
Amateur). It's not often you can find phonetics that fit like a glove....

My favorite from this weekend was K 9 Nit Wit

And in the eschewing obfuscation category, my all time favorite of course
was:

Willy Nicaragua Four Knickerbocker Knickerbocker Nicaragua

rather than an issue.

Since SS is primarily a "domestic"  contest, such stuff is effective. I
still
remember things like "K 4 Worked  All Bands" in SS from back in the 70's.

Over the years, I've found that the few stations using creative  phonetics
actually stand out in a contest, especially if rules permit  working them
only once regardless of band.  I am far more likely to  remember that I've
already worked N4-Baked-Potato than I am N4-Bravo-Papa.  And thus I don't
even need to enter N4BP in my logging software to see if  he's a dupe.
