**Lyra** , you might want to get yourself in position with your open palm, poised and ready for slapping of the forehead … “Mna” is a _TYPO_ of “Man”. Therefore he is The Typo Man, unfortunately he made a _typo_ in his user name. Get it? Typo? Man? Hilarity ensues. ---

I like **Sofa King’s** name - it seriously took me almost two years to get the joke. D-uh! I like **Typo Mna** and **Bosda d’ Chi of Tricor** (don’t quote me on the spelling, please) too. ---

:smack: Thanks guys. I never would have got that one. Personally my favorite is \*\* Duck Duck Goose **. And as stated in other threads, I love the way \*\* Esprix \*\* sounds. His name and his posts. 😉 And a few more that always catch my attention are: \*\* Swimming Riddles, thinksnow, Mangetout, **and** CrankyAsAnOldMan**. ---

There are quite a few that have made me smile, but I think my favorites are: **Enola Straight** , **donkeyoatey** and **Judith Prietht**. ---

Gotta second **Swimming Riddles** , also **Coldfire** - which is of course where freezer burn comes from. ---

There was a fella on another board called **Flatulus**. Sadly, he didn’t stick around for long, so a good username went to waste. ---

Every time I see \*\*Grim spectre of red death \*\* my brain reads it: \*\*Grim spectre of fred death \*\* and I was always like, " Uhhhh, death by Fred \*\* \*\*Quasimodem \*\* is one of the more unique names around here. I miss **Imthecowgodmoo** (and his ‘ode to electrical engineer’ threads ) \*\*Crankyasanoldman \*\* is not only one of the best posters around here, she has one of the best names. ---

I always liked **iamthewalrus(:3=** and **Enola Straight**. These threads are so hard because I immediately forget all of my favorite usernames as soon as I enter. ---

**vivalostwages** is funny, I can’t help but crack a smile when I see that. **Qadgop the Mercotan** is cool, if only because I can’t help but think it’s some SF reference that I don’t get. There are a lot of great names around here, that’s just a couple that I can think of right now and didn’t see mentioned. ---
