I'm not especially sensitive about my name, but now you've made it a running
joke.

Many of my relatives are cooperative, cheerful, and even capable of having
interactions with other people that don't involve pointless, stupid,
stubborn hostility.

Uh Carl? Hart and Parker have been making fun of your name for over 10
years in Wizard of Id. How come no hostility towards them?

Ummm, unless they have some kind of beyond-the-grave abilities,
that should be "*had* been making fun" . . .

I don't think I was hostile, and I haven't read Wizard of Id in decades.

Carl Fink is one of the best of the posters, here at RACS. He's a
prince, dare I say, his musings rule.

Yes, the Fink is a King!
