My favorite Username is **Hail Aints**

The Simpsons is always a good place to rip-off a funny as hell username.

I’d have to give my award to **Intriguing Question Mark**

A 9.2

Though **ToriFaery** have just made an appearance in GQ.

::hangs around like a chad, humming:: Fine.

Um, I like…Gunslinger. Because of the book. And Jack Batty is one of my favorite names, on or off the boards. 🙂 And Crunchy Frog b/c it makes me kind of hungry (no I don’t like amphibians in that way!) when I think of his name.

I really like smackfu – it brings to mind an image of some really weird martial art with moves like “spinning dope slap” and “tae kwon foot in your ass.”

I’m a fan of the name - **Spiney Norman**. I love a good Monty Python reference, and my dog has a little squeaky hedgehog chew toy which has also been dubbed Spiney Norman.

Max Torque is a rugged name that brings about images of strong, handsome men. So it suits you well. I can’t help but like the name zyzzyva. It just looks cool.

**Sue Duhnym** is one of my all-time favorite names, in spite of the fact that I didn’t figure it out right away.

Although this person hasn’t posted in a while, I get a kick out of the name **PurpleCrackwhore**.
