I use to work with a guy named Leif Erickson. He took himself completely seriously. I think when you spend a lifetime with a name like that, the humorous aspect of it fades quickly.
There was another guy I worked with....he had a pretty humorous name, but he found no humor in it. Probably the worst part was he was a “IV”, as in, the fourth generation of a truly silly name.

As a Wisconsin resident, this is...unsurprising.

“I think when you spend a lifetime with a name like that, the humorous aspect of it fades quickly.”
YUP! 100% can confirm. There are days you can embrace and joke about it; but many days, you just want them to tell them ‘YOU’RE NOT CLEVER. I’VE BEEN HEARING THAT FOR TWO DECADES NOW.’

Also, I just watched the dashcam video, and the cops are hilarious. After the dude gets out of his truck in the abandoned parking lot, a cop tells him to lie face down on the ground. Once he’s on the ground that same cop keeps telling him not to move but then tells him to move something! As he keeps squirming, more cops join in telling him what to do.
“DO NOT MOVE! PUT YOUR ARMS OUT TO THE SIDE LIKE AN AIRPLANE!”
“LOOK TO YOUR RIGHT!”
“DROP YOUR FEET! ELBOWS ON THE GROUND!”
“PUT YOUR LEFT HAND IN THE SMALL OF YOUR BACK!”
“DO NOT MOVE!”
“DO NOT MOVE!”
“DON’T MOVE!”
“LOOK TO YOUR RIGHT!”
“GET YOUR FEET ON THE GROUND!”
“GET ON THE GROUND PUT YOUR HANDS OUT TO THE SIDE!”
“DO NOT MOVE!”
“GET ON THE GROUND GET ON THE GROUND!”
“GET ON THE GROUND NOW!”
“BEANBAG! BEANBAG!”
All the cops together: “GET ON THE GROUND!”
“GET ON THE GROUND NOW!”
“BEANBAG!”
Then they shoot him in the back with a beanbag.
“GET ON YOUR STOMACH!”
“PUT YOUR HANDS OUT TO YOUR SIDE! LIKE AN AIRPLANE! SPREAD YOUR FEET APART! PUT YOUR RIGHT HAND IN THE SMALL OF YOUR BACK! DO IT NOW!”
“DO! NOT! MOVE!”
Then like all 15 of the assembled cops move in and grab the guy.
Shit, who wouldn’t be confused by those commands?

It’s not so bad. You’ve go to remember that people are going to do dumb shit with anything they can get their hands on. Give a million people a fork and a power outlet and it’s guaranteed that a few of them are going to electrocute themselves.

I just drove on these roads yesterday and drive them at least once a week. I’m glad Waukesha is in the limelight for wonderful things haha! I’m also glad I live outside of Waukesha...
