As I stated in [this thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=9183286#post9183286), I was not happy with my member name. I put in the request to the wonderful, fantastic, brilliant, kind, lovely, thoughtful, considerate **TubaDiva** and she graciously changed my name. Goodbye, **erie774**. Hello, **Slypork**. The name was my high school nickname, given to me by one of my best friends. It was a dumb joke that just stuck, but I love the name and so kept it. Please carry on. Thank you. ---

Congratulations! Does this mean that you’ll just kind of unobtrusively _ease_ your way into all the Bacon Salt threads? ---

[QUOTE=twickster] Why am I hearing the Swedish Chef in my head? [/QUOTE] I was wondering if he was related to [Dr. Strangepork](http://muppet.wikia.com/wiki/Dr._Julius_Strangepork). ---

[QUOTE=Kythereia] It’s a good supervillain name. I\* like\* it. [/QUOTE] I had a friend who was a very talented artist. He drew a picture for me of a pig wearing a trenchcoat and fedora, leaning against a streetlamp, cigarette in his lips. I’ve got to find it again.
