Yes, Branshea, tsuwm is right; but it seems tsuwn would rather be right than play to the spirit of the game so I will play for him. According to the letters tsuwm is...

t territorial
s snide
u unforgiving
w withdrawn
m merciless

...at times.

And at other times he can be...

t tender
s sensitive and sexy
u unassuming
w witty
m metromanly

...but not often.

Ok, eatoin.
I'd like to begin by saying that you are quick with a quip but you don't have a "q" to your name.

Right now my mouse is acting up so I must drive twenty miles over the mountain to the Wal-mart in Springville to get a new one. Later, eatoin.

Why anagram acronym? Corn may. Cry, moan (or Mona, or Noam, if you prefer...)

But I digress.

...didn't we once have a thread with words deacronymized, such that the final word of the expansion became the next acronym to be expanded? I couldn't find it in a quick skimming of this Wordplay/Fun forum, but perhaps I hurried past it in my haste. It was pretty popular for a while, as I recall.

But let's work on our name acronyms a little more first, before we even consider resurrecting that one.

No etaoin, that's not cute. That's a typo. Your own anagram/acronym will be cute. It will now include the term "impetuous".

The real challenge will be for someone to tackle nuncle's handle.
