Well… i’d ask, but my nick already has its own taxonomic designation, which is even more boring than most of those already presented: _zyzzyva zyzzyva_ :rolleyes: ---

> [@](#): > > I would have done Spiritus Mundi’s name, but his is latin, and I dont know too much about him. I could have cheated and used his nickname, though. Latin? It’s all Greek to me. I would have thought that you had learned eerything about me from chat, but I guess Omni already got that name. Anyway, I’m just your average waste of potential with delusions of adequacy and a wife who’s too good for me but doesn’t seem to know it. I speak tech, martial arts, bullshit philosophy, and logic with equal influency, especially when drinking. And I like to tease Pat because he’s basically a good guy. Fucker. What I really want to say, though, is nickname? I have a nickname? Cool. [sub]um, can you tell me what it is?[/sub] ---
