Very much. You mean, from another thread, right? And you didn’t search.
Uh…yes…I know all of those people from other threads…I have a huge brain, that compiles numbers and faces…yeah…
FTR: Actually I do remember you from another thread.
You must know 95% of the people here! (OK I bodged the math, but something like that.) You realise all the newbies will be pestering you to know who they are, right?
But sometimes, someone says something that just sticks with you. For example, for over two years now, when I get my VISA bill each month, I think Smeghead.
And when I see someone saying something is this big (using thumb and index finger), I automatically think “I’m squishing your head!” thanks to Enright3.
Well, either no one reads my posts (doubtful), or they don’t think about me (possible), or they don’t care how I look (likely).
:eek: You’re joking! I don’t even remember making that post!
Well, ya did, and thank you! Not everyone gets to smile when they get their bills.
I recognize you, stccrd. I once tried to pronounce your name–and I think I succeeded! But if I have to say your name with vowels, I’d pronounce it ‘stickered’.

Sorry, twickster47, can’t say I’ve met you. Nice to meet you. I’m Lodrain, pronounced as ‘LOW-drain’ or closer to the etymology, ‘LOW-dry-een’. Ladies want me and men want to be me. It works out well pour moi. Welcome, and may your anonymity last no longer than the half-life of Element 110.
Nope, you don’t ring a bell with me. But don’t feel bad, you only have 244 posts. When you get up around 700, like me, everyone will know you.
. . . right guys? guys?
Right.
[blatant bid for attention]Like me?[/bbfa]
I recognize everyone. I have a fantastic photographic memory…In fact, anytime I see a new face, it get’s longed into my “new people” file… It’s really helpful.
Wait a minute.
SDMB involves reading…:eek:
Oh dear! I suppose I have to paraphrase Bilbo:
I don’t know half of you half as well as I would like,
and I like half of you half as well as you deserve…
I think most of us that hang out in MPSIMS have run across each other at one time or another. Now those Pitizens…that’s a whole 'nuther story!
Aw, get used to it. Smeghead has it exactly right. Somebody has to do all the teeming around here.
I think a lot of it - being recognised - may have to do with which forums you hang out in. Many posters have favourite forums and rarely post in others. For example, if you post primarily in GD or Cafe Society, chances are I won’t have much of a clue who you are. However, if you post in IMHO or MPSIMS or GQ, then I’ll probably recognise you.
As brachyrhynchos said
That’s what does it for me a lot of times - a memorable post. Or an unusual name.
FTR, Stccrd, I do recognise your username, but don’t have a clear image of you in my head, sorry.
Hey Lodrain, pleasedtameetya, I’m an IMHO, MPSIMS, Cafe Society kinda gal, maybe we’re just not hanging out in the same forums – but now that we’ve met, I’ll definitely keep an eye out for you. BTW, my friends – and dare I hope you’re now one of their number? – call me Twick. (bats eyelashes fetchingly, twirls parasol, blushes, looks away)
Back to topic: Stccrd, for some reason I always read your name as “Street Cred” as in “Street Credibility.” Nope, don’t know why, and don’t really know what it means.
There are a couple of people here whose names aren’t all that familiar to me, but whose locations I recognize, like VarlosZ, dwyr (because let’s face it, there’s a distinctive username), and Washte. Go figure.
I lurked for about four years before I registered, so I recognize a lot of users. I feel like I know so many people who have no clue who I am. FTR, I recognized all but two names here. 'Specially Meatros and Smeghead. You guys rock.
Cool. I am not completely unknown. FTR, my name is a mixture of my last name and the car I drive. Any guesses?
You drive a Cord? cool! That definitely gives you street cred!
Yeah I drive a Cord…'cept its spelled like this: “Accord”
