**juji** has no posts, so someone must have registered under that username and never posted.

The username **juju** has only one post (a few years ago).

Apparently _ju…_ has some bad mojo.

Ashy doesn’t post much. He lurks… but start a thread about rats and he’ll be right there!

ok, i’ll bite. how many other deities are here, other than **DreadCthulhu** and **Hastur** and, i guess, **jsgoddess**?

or maybe i should ask about other historical/mythical Greek names, like **Ariadne**?

Personally, I can’t believe the amount of posters, other than myself and laurielounge, who don’t take the time to relax. That might explain why there are so many posters with names like…

Isosleepy

**I am King God Space. Fear me!** (Seriously, I still use that sig on a few other boards.)

I’ve seen a few other Kings, but no other Gods. (Aside from **cowgodmoo** , who sounds like he needs a milking.) Which is good. Because There Can Be Only One _True_ God.

Uh, there are at least two more Kricket/Crickets around here somewhere, but I think I’m the only one with a “K”.  
And I know there are a few other bugs as well.  
But we smaller type bugs need to be mindful because there are a few spiders lurking about in the corners, keyboards, and bathrooms as well.

**Berkut** … you can bring down a wolf??? Categorizing you simply as a bird seems, well, insufficient. And considering I’m just a little mouse, I certainly don’t want to meet you in the wild.  
Thanks for the interesting (and graphic) information.

Good!

Actually, I had picked this name in 1999 just a few months before the debut of cingular in New Orleans (Don’t know if they were around anywhere else). Made me all warm and fuzzy.  
And I like the little orange dude, too!

Regarding **Satisfying Andy Licious** I didn’t realize it was a Mondegreen until this thread - and now I hate you for locking that song into my brain. I would read your user name and wonder “why doesn’t he called himself ' **Satisfyingly Andylicious** ” - like it was a made-up adjectival phrase - “Why, that chocolate fudge sundae wasn’t just good, it was satisfyingly Andylicious!!” never mind.

But what about us wordy types. There’s me, **Booklover** , **Tequila Mockingbird** , and a few other word/book-related usernames…
