Nickname

Numerous IPs have been attempting to add the unsourced nickname "Water-T". The Rick and Morty sketch does not make this a real nickname for Ice-T. Meters (talk) 05:03, 26 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Not to be confused with iced tea?

[Stupid] Geico commercial aside, I don't think this is a relevant concern, and comes off as more a joke than encyclopaedic information. I personally feel it should be removed, as the misunderstanding could really only occur in spoken language rather than written. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 165.225.0.77 (talk) 14:11, 4 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Ice T Vegan?

I highly doubt Ice-T was serious in that video where he says he's vegan. After all he wrote an album called Carnivore. Here is just one quote from interview related to the album "The new album is titled Carnivore, only because people are getting so soft," he said. "It's okay for me to say, 'Oh, I'm a vegan,' or, 'I'm a vegetarian.' I say, 'I'm carnivorous — I only eat meat.' People go, 'What the fuck?' I think the person that's gonna come get you won't be a vegetarian; it will be [someone] carnivorous." So I think he was joking or high or something, I don't think the vegan think is real or at least that source is not enough to support it.Stilgar (talk) 18:27, 8 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
