The Underwear Bomber 0r Underpants Bomber. This is hardly the claim to fame he was looking for! Sounds like a toddler with toilet training issues. Or a fetish involving underwear and cherry bombs. I think this is a new way to punish "alledged" criminals - we give them embarassing names based on making fun of them. Shame is a huge factor in many cultures - Westerners have far too little of a sense of shame. Like when I get cut off in traffic and they give me the finger for their error.
After awhile we might get bored trying to come up with funny embarassing names. Give the job to 6 - 8 year olds. They have a fascination with making up phrases involving body parts or gross images.
