Daily Doozy - Nom de Trompeur

A Nom de Trompeur is an alias used for doing business, primarily used in deals on the shadier side.
Examples:
"The company's Chief Conscience Officer, aka I Can Live With That Guy, uses a nom de trompeur in all public communications."
"The tech services woman in Bangladesh, who trained in a midwestern U.S. accent for several months, uses the nom de trompeur 'Cissy from Cincinnati'."
"The signature on your bank's new 79 page TOS (terms of service) is a nom de trompeur."

Text Speak: LOL?

What a woman does when she sees the owner of a 400-foot yacht - naked.

e.g. Compensate, v. why a wealthy man who women laugh at when he's naked buys a 400-foot yacht.
