In case you haven't heard, we're giving out Maxx's original legal name (first AND last) once we hit 650 likes on Facebook.
The face value of information like this is crazy huge. But why? How could you actually USE information like this? The possibilities are certainly endless, but here are thirteen ideas to get you started:
1. Throw out Maxx's original name in casual conversation as a way to prove you're pretty tight with him.
2. Firmly address him by his original legal name if he ever crosses you or behaves rudely.
3. Change your name to his original name (now that it's vacant). Make a game out of it. Musical Chairs --> "Musical Names."
4. Google his original name and see what kind of dirt you can dig up. Assume every person by that name must be Maxx. Like this:
5. Seriously question what else you NEVER knew about Maxx, and then make a point to socialize with him over a couple of Keurigs. Get to know him more intimately.
6. Imagine what Rachel's (his fiancé's) last name would have been had he never changed it.
7. Approach Rachel and ask her which name she would have preferred: ____ or "Raths." (No matter what she says, tell Maxx it's "Raths.")
8. Ponder how different the universe might be if Maxx had never changed his name.
9. Give Maxx suggestions for how he could use his original name now that he's switched it. (Ex. give it to his dog, use it to name his child, etc.)
10. Name your dog Maxx's original name.
11. Name your child Maxx's original name.
12. Creatively theorize why he changed it to begin with. (And I mean creatively. Government conspiracy, Russian mafia, etc. aren't out of the question.)
13. Use those creative theories to turn Maxx's story into a novel.
Have more ideas? Post them here! And keep spreading the news about what's going on, because all of these ideas will be useless unless we get to 650 likes!
