[Shirley Ujest]

There seems to be a crop of newbies around here and one of them's name just cracks me up.

Hightechburrito.

Hi I guess Im a newbie but I dont know if my name is funny enough. Ive been thinking of changing it but it was a childhood taunt that Ive grown to like.....

But hightechburrito is funny....

[OldBroad]

Shirley, yours is my favorite.

[Dirty Devil]

"Hightechburrito" is the name of a gourmet burrito shop in the SF Bay Area (it may be a national chain, I don't know). I thought it was kinda' strange to name yourself after a restaurant, but I suppose I'm no better, being named after a polluted little river in the middle of Utah.

My personal favorite has always been Iamthecowgodmoo, but he's not around here anymore. I like swimmingriddles, too, although I have no idea why. Just a neat name, I guess.

[Stevie Rave On]

I'd have to second Iamthecowgodmoo

[hightechburrito]

I'm not that new!

I've got a good six months, just a low post count.

And yes, I got the name from the restaurant.

[hightechburrito]

Awww . . . Crap!!

Caught in my own circle of lies! I've only been here four months.

I apologize and swear that it will never happen again.

[Lexicon]

Oh man, hands down the coolest username is

Chrome Toaster
It's cool, it's sleek, it's nerdy.
It says "I'm not that concerned with my image, but I know I'm cool."
It exudes a calm assuredness, and is cheesy in a great way.
This is truly a great name, and if I ever own a company, I hope their are no copyright infringement laws to get around for me to name it in like fashion.


But wait, there's more! I also am fond of these great titles:
Coldfire (slick lawyer type, sounds like a superhero name from the comics I know and love)
Neuro-Trash Grrrl (sounds like that living dead girl song that I like and makes me think of tank girl, again in a comic.)
Ed Zotti (I don't know why)
Satan (shock effect and puts life in perspective by lending a sense of humor to the prince of darkness.)
Imthecowgodmoo (the most original, confident name I have ever come across. This one is a close second.)

Don't get me wrong, there are way more folks here that I like, but this is only about names, right.

[AuntiePam]

I always liked Canthearya -- especially after that anecdote she shared when someone was on her computer, and she was in the other room, and the other person asked her about her user name and she responded "Canthearya", and the other person just asked the question louder and louder, and she kept saying "Canthearya".

Shoot. Guess you had to be there.

Where is she anyway?

[Demo]

UncleBeer: It makes me all warm and fuzzy inside. I think of going to visit my good, old Uncle Beer and always being offered a frosty one as I walk in the door. Aaaahhhh...

Iamthecowgodmoo is a close second for me too.

[NothingMan]

I have to vote for SwimmingRiddles too, and anyone who has seen the "Flirting" thread knows why.

Ah, I am such a sucker. :D

[hightechburrito]

For the record, I liked Bug Vomit.

[Lexicon]

Aww, dude. Coldfire, don't you remember way back two months ago when we started the self-righteous clique?
Don't you remember your job?
Don't you remember those two, er seven, you know...well I guess they were prostitutes but I don't remember payin'?
Don't you remember all the disavowing statements you made on my behalf?
Say it aint so! Say you remember me! Say you remember us!

I have always been partial to iamthecowgodmoo and Shirley Ujest but I do have other favorites I guess.

Canthearya
Fretful Porpentine
Polycarp
and one of the newer ones, threebunnymama That one just reminds me of a children's bedtime story or something.

------------------
I always try to do things in chronological order.

I have a few that always make me smile

PurpleCrackWhore... I miss her :(

Imthecowgodmoo

Guanolad

SwimmingRiddles

Green Bean- I thought this name was cute, but after I read her profile post in the Who's Who thread I thought it was just adorable.

[SwimmingRiddles]

I like Shirley Ujest, mostly because it took me many a post before I actually pronounced it in my head. (that didn't make sense. Dammit.)

Chalk me up for iamthecowgodmoo, too. It's the moo that amuses me the most.

[SwimmingRiddles]

I just noticed a newbie named Notthemama. I enjoy any pop-culture references, so this, too gets my thumbs up. (and thanks to everyone who voted for my name. Your checks are in the mail.)

[bloomers123]

No doubt about it, iamthecowgodmoo is the coolest name. Evilbeth is a close second though....reminds me of my sister.

[elbows]

Aw, shucks, Sea Lemon, I was beginning to think I wasn't gonna make anyone's list....

For the record, and because he was nice enough to list my nick, I should note here that it's not Sea Lemon, but Seale-mon. Thank you. End of PSA.

[OgreFade]

damn....... i didn't get any votes :(

[casdave]

Swimmingriddles- just a nice sound
Kellibelli - ditto
Unclebeer - sounds like a jolly relative
Orangecakes -I just have this real sweet image in my head
Revtim -are you a vicar?or a biker?
Iamacowgodmoo -it just has to be the best so far

[Shirley Ujest]

One name that I always pronounce wrong in my head is Yosemitebabe. In the vacant space between my ears, I always read it

Yos-em-ite-babe.

Other winners for favorite names:
Coldfire
Wally
Evilbeth ( Just how evil are you?)
Imthecowgodmoo. ( the best by far)
UncleBeer
TomnDebb - nice and wholesome
Sue Duhnym

[OgreFade]

So does everyone just HATE my user name?

[Weirddave]

Oh, for God's sake, Ogre, no one mentioned me either. And I'm Weird

------------------
Cecil said it. I believe it. That settles it.

[SINsApple]

I'm just afraid my handle will never stop being associated with Newton's Apple. But I take solace in the fact that I was here before him.

[Sue Duhnym]

Shirley Ujest...because it's kinda like my name, in that way.

Iamthecowgodmoo...damn funny!

Vestal Blue...it seems peaceful for some reason.

And if JohnLarrigan would ever get around to changing his name, my all time favorite would be:

bogboypete

[Billdo]

My favorites:

mega the roo, for the reasons stated on a late-night post where I poured my heart out to her.

Imthecowgodmoo, though I always wondered how it was punctuated. Is it "I'm the cow god, moo" (moo being the name of the cow god) or "I'm the cow god. Moo!" (moo being what the cow god says?

SwimmingRiddles, because it just sounds so darn lovely.

Flora McFlimsy, Eve's former handle. She changed it long before I got here, but she's referenced it a few times, and I think it's nifty and perfect for her.

evilbeth, because just hearing the name makes me think of an evil grin with eye teeth just slightly sticking out.

Green Bean, because she's my sister and the name somehow fits her really well.

quadell, or more properly, my quadell, because of the explanation and the way the your quadell/my quadell fits together (as some Christians get to think of Jesus as their personal savior, I, like other SDMB'ers, get to think of quadell as my personal quadell)

A girl. She's just A girl, but so much more. By representing herself as one anonymous girl, she comes to represent all of girldom.

[sunbear]

Those would also be, many of them, excellent names for rock bands.

I thought of registering Floyd Pink..

[purrplebear]

*sniff* nobody voted for me, either *sniff*

Seriously, I like, in no particular order:
Shirley Ujest (makes me laugh!)
Iamthecowgodmoo (cool name, miss him)
SwimmingRiddles (like a happy river)
Neuro trash grrrl (dunno why, just like it)
Vestal blue (sounds peaceful, calm)
Lexicon (love the irony)
Canthearya (love that!)
OgreFade (sounds like someone from Xanth!)
Notthemama (love those dino's)
kellibelli (just like how it sounds)
Sealemon88 (for making up my song,& that it took me so long to pronounce it right)
Falcon (image of the bird, strong, free)

Woohoo, somebody loves my creativity at least ;) Thanks, psycat90!

Anyhoo, if, as I suspect, Buck Naked named himself from a line in a Sam & Max comic (by Steve Purcell) then that is a cool name.

If not, then it's just a weird name.

So, we'll just have to have a 32nd post party. Ye'll observe I'm now learned about keeping a reserve.

Cool name, hightechburrito (digital sour cream?).

*blush*.. why, Lex, I had no idea you thought of me so... or at all, for that matter! I'm honored... I'm touched.. and, I'm oddly aroused!! There's a long, old story behind my thing for the oft-ignored chrome toaster. Maybe if I'm really bored someday I will post it somewhere in MPSIMS.

Anyway, chiming in late, so no one will probably see this, but here is my list of favorite names, in no particular order:
(No, I could not narrow it down!)

Neuro-Trash Grrrl

Doghouse Reilly

Imthecowgodmoo (Is "Moo" a command?)

Chrome Toaster
Lexicon
OpalCat

My favorite is UncleBeer. Every time I hear it, I think of my dad because ever since I first saw that screen name, I just think that's how people my age look at my dad. He's their "Uncle Beer." It makes me feel warm and fuzzy.

[neuro-trash grrrl]

Wow, I've been mentioned several times! I knew I was on to a good thing when I came up with my handle, but still, it's nice to be noticed. So, here are my favorites, in no particular order:

UncleBeer (Very... avuncular. Very... refreshing. Very... malted.)
Drain Bead (Conjures up some very strange images indeed)
Catrandom (Makes me think of a rambunctious kitten scampering about the room for no apparent reason.)
Pixoid (Not entirely sure why it's one of my favorites, but it is.)
psycat90 (And OpalCat and CatRimbaud and Gr8Kat and... what!? I like cats!)
Chrome Toaster (For some bizarre reason, I always imagine the cover of a superhero comic, with a toaster where the superhero should be.)
tipiwoo (Very fun to say. Whatever happened to tipiwoo, anyway?)

I'm leaving somebody out, I just know it. If I think of anyone else, you'll be sure to hear about it. Oh, yeah. One more thing.

...but here hightechburrito has exercised the "you spake its name and it will appear" clause of the unspoken rules and I am called upon.
