I’ve always been fond of those long, funny ones.

**Really Not All That Bright  
you with the face  
It’s Not Rocket Surgery!  
Least Original User Name Ever**(who I often get confused with**Really Not All That Bright**)  
**Well, he’s back  
don’t ask  
Don’t Fight the Hypothetical  
WhyNot**  
**6ImpossibleThingsBeforeBreakfast  
ComeToTheDarksideWeHaveCookies**

There’s someone on here with one that’s like JustSomeGuy or It’s that guy or Hey, it’s that guy; I can’t remember what it is exactly…but he goes here too.

**Patty O’Furniture** makes me laugh like a kid…

Sort of like the (as-yet-unclaimed-on-this-site) Seymour Butz:  
–famous to all 10 year olds as the author of “Underneath the Bleacher Seats”.  
(Get it? Huh? didja get it? Didja? Huh? Tell me!!! 🙂 )

I like the name **Le Ministre de l’au-delà** , because I see it as a reference to a composer I like. I’ve also met this board member in real life, so maybe I’m biased.

I like most of them; at least better than 50%. It (how the various minds here work and how the handles reflect that) is one of the reasons I like this place.

Absolutely and without exaggeration **everyone mentioned so far** with the exception of (and apologies to) **EmilyG** for whom a simple reversal could easily rectify 😃 _(And I like how you all just automatically did that.)_

**ClockworkMelon** was the first name that ever made me laugh, and the **Spectre of Pith.** …took me ages to learn and now I’ve completely forgotten.

**Maggie the Ocelot** is listly because you can’t read that without being tickled somewhere, and **Johnny L.A** for no other reason than it’s hard to be cooler than that.

**kambuckta** because it also looks good written down, **FloatyGimpy** because **Novelty Bubble** should have some competition.

There are many more; the hilariously witty and the insanely creative, and just I’ll have to wait until someone else remembers them so I can go OH…YEAH! out loud, alone.

“Unauthorized Cinnamon” is the name of the seventh episode of the third season of the HBO series _Deadwood_. In the episode, it refers to, at a meeting of the town’s elders, the unauthorized offering of cinnamon as an accompaniment to canned peaches (which, because of the scarcity of canned goods in Deadwood, are themselves only available during Meetings of Great Importance – whenever my wife or I tell each other that we had an important work meeting that day, the other person asks if peaches were served). I’d link to the clip on YouTube, but it’s very, very, very NSFW. **Unauthorized Cinnamon** is a great username.

Another of my favorite usernames, not yet mentioned, is **Go You Big Red Fire Engine**. He/she hasn’t posted since 2006, but I still smile whenever I think of the username.

For sheer bizarre-ness, my favourites have got to be

**Biffy the Elephant Shrew**  
**Go You Big Red Fire Engine**  
**A Sniveling Mess**

And I had thought that there was someone with the posting name **Salacious Integument** – but Search attempts have yielded me nothing on that one: perhaps I imagined it.  
(ETA: **Gordon Urquhart** beat me to it, as regards **GYBRFE** )

I’m watching _Curious George_, so naturally I’m reminded of the Doper **Furious George**.

I’ll give a shout out to **Qadgop the Mercotan**. Very meta, since it’s not merely the name of an alien, but an alien in a very bad space opera being written by a character in another space opera.

> [@](#):

> Qadgop the Mercotan slithered flatly around the afterbulge of the tranship. One claw dug into the meters-thick armor of pure neutronium, then another. Its terrible xmexlike snout locked on. Its zymolosely polydactile tongue crunched out, crashed down, rasped across. Slurp! Slurp! At each abrasive stroke the groove in the tranship’s plating deepened and Qaggop leered more fiercely. Fools! Did they think that the airlessness of absolute space, the heatlessness of absolute zero, the yieldlessness of absolute neutronium could stop QADGOP THE MERCOTAN?

The user **f. coli** has recently graced us. I like that one.

My all-time favorite is/was **Filthy Beast of Meat and Hair**. With a wit to match his moniker. Sadly he’s not been seen in these parts for years.

I believe that’s **Novelty Bobble**. Which is still a cool name.
