I suspect that neither **The Other Attack from the 3rd Dimension** nor **Attack from the Other 3rd Dimension** will fit in the username field, so I reckon that I’m safe. **Freudian Slit** is still the name to which to aspire. ---

I’m with you, I hate my username too. It was made up last second on a lark, isn’t particularly coy or brilliant, and is completely at odds with my real stance on God’s greatest contribution to culinary delights. ---

But I don’t hate my user name, quite the opposite; this thread is mostly about me being a bit of a passive agressive, whiny beotch. Also, I think your name is a great one; I’d like to mention **Really Not All That Bright** - great name!! ---

Thanks, and all, but I didn’t come up with it. That was **Mangetout**. Plus, it’s a bitch to type. ---

[QUOTE=The Other Jeffrey Lebowski;12685528 Also, I think your name is a great one\*\* [/QUOTE] **Trumpets fanfare** I feel, I feel, so…VINDICATED!! Thank you all so very much, but I must also thank God, my agent, my PR director, myself and all my fans. Its for YOU! ---

Nope. **FoisGrasIsEvil** is a top name. In fact, most posters in this thread have exemplary monikers (I mean, if you don’t crack a smile when reading **Biffy the Elephant Shrew** , then, well, you’re half dead, and you should probably just end it all now, give us a little more room, it’s getting crowded in here); they put some real thought into them, and, well, I for one appreciate all of your cleverness. **Freudian Slit** is for sure the gold standard, and oh my god, I’ve never come across **Purple Crack Whore** before doing so today, right here. 😃 ---

I just hope that everyone looks at me sideways. It’s my best aspect. ---

> [@The\_Other\_Jeffrey\_Lebowski](#): > > heck, even **Starving Artist** is a cool name. Thanks, but you might be encouraged to know that I didn’t think of it. 🙂 As I’ve mentioned several times before when posters have complained about the cognitive dissonance they experience when contrasting my posts with my user name, I was doing some painting at the time and “Starving Artist” was suggested to me by my neice who is also a member here and who brought me to the board because she thought I’d enjoy the Cafe Society forum.
