What are you, some kind of geek?
(That’s a joke, since we are all übergeeks, as shown by the fact that we hang out on internet message boards and take them way too seriously and everything and say things like “übergeek.”)
::crying with laughter::
The very fact that you can spell “ubergeek” with an umlaat makes you a geek.
The fact that you spelled “umlaut” as you did puts your geek cred at risk.
Hah! Pwned!
(Just adding to my store of geek cred.)

What? Oh, geek cred! My bad.
Good. 
By the way, is it Au-tolly-cus or Auto-like-us?
Unless you are saying it out loud (and why would you?), it makes no difference.
And are you the bumbling and comical antihero, king of thieves, the lunar impact crater, the wood manufacturer, the Greek astronomer and mathematician, the idolator and scorner of christians or the character from Xena: Warrior Princess?
Actually, the first is too much like the last for my taste.
One of these days I am going to edit the wikipedia entry…
And I hope “our” Autolycus gets so upset as to generate another PALATR thread.
My, you’re an obnoxious little turd, aren’t you?
Of course I am “our” Autolycus. If I wasn’t a member of this community, then what would I be? During my time here, I dare not claim to belong only to myself. As far as the internet is concerned, that would be illogical, inconsiderate, inappropriate, and inadvertently insipidly illustrious.
Alliteration aside, I have no clue what a PALATR thread is, but I get the feeling from QEDs reply that it is none too flattering. Oh well, cant win 'em all.
According to the Urban Dictionary, it is “Point And Laugh At The Retard”.
This post contains very little in relation to the original thread. Only read if you’re curious about me.
Heffalump and Roo, if God forbid I ever break up with my girlfriend, the post I’m replying to definitely merits you first dibs. Be flattered; be afraid!
Allow me to elucidate on how I came upon my handle:
-
The bumbling and comical antihero, king of thieves. –> Indeed, the Greek myth as famously portrayed by the recent TV shows Hercules and Xena is where I learned and embraced my username. I <3 Autolycus and Bruce Campbell. IMO, Bruce Campbell is like Sean Connery in that he doesn’t act; he is. Now if you’ll excuse me, I have to go steal some phosphorus from my cousins the Hesperides
(get it?) -
the lunar impact crater, —> My rim is indeed a bit irregular, but that doesnt stop me from wooing the ladies
-
the wood manufacturer ----> My wood is not for sale!
-
the Greek astronomer and mathematician. —> I are stealing your abacus!
-
the idolator and scorner of christians ----> Scorn them?; I AM them! (a small part at least)
-
the character from Xena: Warrior Princess -----> I much prefer this page. It’s a small, one-man-made page, but it does an extremely cromulent job of portraying the awesomeness that is Bruce Campbell’s Autolycus.
I love all things Bruce Campbell actually. I originally started using that particular role of his as my Final Fantasy XI username, and from then on it’s stuck with me 
I see. Thanks for your help Lib!
Or the ladles. 
If we’re going to compare the two, at least ladles have never broken my heart (only my sphincter) 
I was thinking Auto-lick-us.
So far everybody is wrong 
It’s Ah-TAH-La-kiss!
(obnoxious asshole is another accepted pronunciation ;))
