I’d be far more likely to talk to an “ugly bitch” than I would to other people who have an overwrought sense of self importance that’s reflected in their name. Besides, it’s the person you talk to, not a name.

It wasn’t an abbreviation of “Ugly Butch” ?

I also welcome you to the boards. It’s fun here, innit?

Can I add, since you invite opinions, I do think a change would help people respond to what you say, not what they think you’ve said.

Is that clear? What I mean is that I suspect that unless I knew you quite well, I would tend to read a post from you and think, “yeah, but look what she calls herself - probably a Sad Loser, what would she know?”

And yet, from what you’ve said in this thread, you don’t sound like a sad loser (if you did I wouldn’t waste my time writing).

Of course if you want to confront people that is your right, but some of the best times around here are when people just kid around and chat. It’s not a strenuous, watch-your-back kind of place.

And **Duck Duck Goose** was trying to be supportive, you know. She’s been around a long long while, and is warm, helpful and fun. I think your reply to her was a little miscalculated.

As to suggestions, well I offer

This from a guy who’s name states his claim as being “the man”? Lighten up, Francis. 🙂

As to the OP, if you’re going to take such a put-upon attitude, I suggest “WendyWhiner” or perhaps just “Waaaaah.” Please note that I’m not looking to curtail your right to moan about your situation. I’m just asking that you do it over in the Pit where it belongs. IMHO is the right place to do your polling, BBQ is the right place to do your complaining about having to do a poll.

Hope this helps.

Heh.

I’ve always been partial to **Jimmy Stinkweasel** (you can always change the Jimmy part to suit your respective gender), but then again, I’m kinda weird. YMMV

How bout **Band**? Get it - sounds like Banned!

Or **Evil Odored Trollop**?

No - I’ve got it! **\_\_\_\_\_'s Sock Puppet**

None of those do it for you? Feh. In that case I second **JuniorHighAngst** (and secretly wish I’d chosen that one for myself!)

Ooh! How about “Spermicidal Lollipop?”  
A friend of mine is in a band, and I keep trying to get them to use this for the title of their demo.
