No reason for this thread. None at all. Just bored.
My choice would be my old AOL name: SlckBldr. Or, now that we can use more than 8 letters, SlackBladder. It’s a reference to Blackadder, my other favorite British comedy.
Mine’d be one of these three, most likely the first
- Puma~, I created this online persona a long time ago
- KinglyAxeMan, this is my Age of Kings one
- Darkangel, I got this from the amazing trilogy, which came out a decade before the TV series
Mine would probably be Ickle Lassie. That is what I was called by most of the people I travelled with when I was in Scotland - it has kinda stuck.
I dunno, I kinda like my name, but if I had to I guess I would choose Team Beer 32, which is my hockey team and number.
Future Man. It comes from the same movie as my current namesake.
I had wanted to be Dr. Worm (another of my favorite TMBG tunes) but some other freak has it already!!! And s/he isn’t using it! Argh. :mad:
absoul,
Damnit!!! someone has already taken it!!
Noodles
A character from my favourite movie.
I’d pick “Sorry” or “Monopoly,” but definitely not “Trivial Pursuit” or “Clue.” “Clue” just isn’t my type of…
Oh, board NAME, not board GAME?
Nevermind.
I would pick a nickname that isn’t my real name. I’m thinking of changing my handle, but when I mentioned it in chat a while ago, someone told me not to, as it’s difficult to remember who someone is after they change names. So I’m still thinking. I’d go for some kind of hippie-ish “noun” name like River or Ivy or something like that.
Lyinar. It means Wolf Sister in Elven and I use that handle on the EverCrest message boards. EC’s a comic strip based on the EverQuest game.
Mhhh lets see, maybe the question to me would be:
<slight hijack>
What should a good screenname have?
let me try a bit of a marketing approach:
what do we want to say/communicate?
why should people want to believe that?
Is there anything it must contain?
Is there anything it cannot contain?
What does it pay ,sorry can never seem to leave this one out 
To me the questions above lead to…
Boomfly
or as my Mplayer handle goes:
Ze Boomfly
</slight hijack>
I would choose Scoff, because he’s another dragon with a silly name that invites ridicule from the same book as Cumber.
Miserable Scrote, or Omphalos.
i like trees.
It’s been my ICQ name for about 5 years.
Either laughing boy or nature boy. for those “in the know” they have that snotty Bugs Bunny quality while, to the shallower, nicer, Disney types, they sound perfectly inoccuous.
Well… perhaps one of my nicknames. Glyndaa or Graceful (earned that one for falling off a chair and seriously spraining my ankle…) Or some form of Shendramazillion, a name created by a good friend of mine.
I also use Maurget and Feleris and Venkelos.
(I have LOTS of different names… I have LOTS of different online personalities… I have lots of different personalities, period…)
If I ever change my SDMB name, it’ll be to “Big Sexy.”
I was out once listening to my brother’s band (in fact it was the first Dallas DopeFest). After the last doper left, I was walking through the crowd to the bar and was stopped by a VERY good-looking black couple who were dressed to the nines. The guy, who was kickin’ it Isaac-Hayes style with a shaved head and sunglasses at night, stopped me with an arm across my path and said, “Woooo! You are Big Sexy. Ain’t he, honey?” Honey allowed as how I was, and he turned back to me and said, “That’s you. From now on you are Big Sexy.” I thanked him and said they were pretty damn sexy too, and went on up to get my beer.
Aw, shit, yoji…I thought for sure that link was going to lead me to John Waters’ PINK FLAMINGOS (1972).
“Baby Noodles” was the name of the infant that Connie and Raymond Marble, aspirants to the title of “Filthiest People Alive,” presented to the Lesbian couple in exchange for a big cash payoff. Baby Noodles had been borne by Suzie, the teenage runaway they kept locked up in the basement and who was regularly impregnated by the handyman, Channing, who masturbated into a turkey baster while he was dressed up in Connie’s clothes…
I would be Colonel Sandwich. That name has cracked me up for the last 5 years and I have no idea why. I’m still mad that I didn’t think of it when I signed up here. Maybe it’s time to e-mail tubaDiva. There’s too many damn Chiefs here anyway.
