With all the "Me Too"s I thought I’d accidentally logged onto AOL.

Me too! Me too! I wanna go tribal!

(As long as it’s really from **lno**. None of this bait and switch stuff where someone else just shows up and starts handing out less-good tribal names.)

What a way to memorialize 2k. Thanks, Cyn.

And dear god, you people are sadists. This is supposed to be a _happy_ occasion!

**Maeglin** , my brother from another mother, you shall be _He With Good Taste_.

**Beadalin** , after her firebreathing at PorkDope, is dubbed _She With Halitosis That Burns With The Fire Of A Thousand Suns That Can Kill A Buffalo From A Dozen Paces_. It’s less wordy in the original Sioux. Trust me.

**Francesca** , my darling of towering intellect, is _Stands Tall And Proud_.

**Max Torque** , as a Roman who had been lost adrift across the Atlantic and was adopted by the Cherokee, retained his original name of _Torquimus Maximus_. Over the years, though, this evolved into _Tuchus Maximus_ due to unknown Yiddish influences, and settled on _He With The Big Ass_ in modern translation.

**Jessica2** could be no one but _Keeper Of Zeke, The Wonder Hamster_.

**galrion** , because of the similarity to Garion of awful Belgariad fame, is _He With A Superfluous L_.

**FisherQueen** for some inexplicable reason is _Squaw Of Great Balls Of Hey Lady_.

**Daerlyn** is _Defender Of Canadia_, being the first from the great white north to reply.

**Bosda Di’Chi of Tricor** is _Fan Of Sailor Moon_.

**Elenfair** , due to her role in the Happy Fun Squad, is _Smooches To Death_, ya know?

**Steve Wright** is _Coder With Conventions_, who attempts to act as a wise elder to the rash youth of the day. Sadly, they continue to ignore the holy scripture of the Book of Jeremiah.

**Nocturne** , because I recently watched Tombstone, is _Frederick Fucking Chopin_.

**arisu** , spelled backwards, is **usira**. Spoken in a B-monster-movie tone, it is remarkably similar to ‘Godzilla’, and thus the name is _Destroyer Of Tokyo_.

**Tripler** is _Bringer Of Fire_, both for his bonfire duties at PorkDope and, well, if I upset him he’ll rain fire from the skies. I’m just staying on his good side.

**matt\_mcl** , rather than being _Disdainer Of Automobiles_, is instead _Proponent Of Mass Transit_.

**Charmian** is _She Who Is Not To Be Squeezed_.

**Osiris** is _Egyptian Who Claims NA Ancestry_.

**JBERGES** is _HE WITH A BROKEN CAPS LOCK KEY_.

**Max Carnage** , despite rumors to the contrary, is dubbed _Slaughterer Of Millions_. It’s the name, babe, it’s the name. Look at what I have to work with!

**zoid** must be either a relative of the Noid of Dominos fame or Zoidberg of Futurama fame. As such, the name is _Of Unknown Ancestry_.

**Xan** , without doubt, is _Chief Gratuitous X_.

**hillbilly queen** , dear, you’re _She Who Wants To Be Done By Strangers_. Not that I’m complaining, don’t get me wrong.

**Siddhartha Vicious** , yer boy is still here plugging away at all of these, except people keep posting each time I preview my reply. Patience is a virtue, m’lad, and as such, your name is _He Without Virtue_. (The ladies are gonna love you, I swear.)

**Flamsterette\_X** , of course, is _She Who Posts A Whole Lot, And We Mean A Whole Lot_.

**Rue DeDay** is _Crazy Uncle Whom We Tolerate At Reunions But The Kids Love Him And His Stories_.

I also dub myself, for the rest of the day, _Slacker Of Work_.

Do I have to know you personally to get a name, or are you reading all our old posts and determining it that way?

I’ll just get in line too - it’s been a while since anyone called me a name… at least that I was aware of.

I’m a sucker for punishment.

**Celyn** is _It’s Celyn Not Ceylon, Goddamnit, And Not Every Welsh Word Is Spelled Lywwylylwlwlwylylylwllwlwwwyyyn So Just Cut It Out_.

**Wartime Consigliori** , due to [this breaking news story](http://www.cnn.com/2002/WORLD/europe/07/17/mafia.pasta/index.html), is _He Who Looks For A New Job_.

**ivylass** is _She Who Thinks lno Knows What He’s Talking About_. I’m just doin’ this on the fly. If I were motivated and resolved, I’d read old posts and compile a phrase that’d describe each and every one of you perfectly. It should be obvious that my motivation and resolve only goes so far. 😉

**Canthearya** is _She Who Is Not Deaf But Just Can’t Hear Ya So Speak Up_.

**Miss Creant** actually isn’t _Sleeps With Dances With Anger_, but rather _Calming Influence On Dances With Anger_.

**FairyChatMom** has to be _She Who Is Too Nice To Be Insulted_.

**sidle** is _Advances Furtively Who Has A Name That Looks Like ‘Sidhe’ Which Isn’t Pronounced ‘Sid-Hee’ But Rather ‘Shee’ So The Word ‘Banshee’ Comes From ‘Bean Sidhe’ And That’s … Oh, Just Forget It, It’s Sidle_. Again, it’s a little wordier in translation.

**BlackKnight** must be _Swimmer in Superior_, and if he doesn’t actually swim in Lake Superior, then something’s wrong with him.
