Inigo Montoya (username) is retiring. You may now call me “The Great Sun Jester.”

…anybody wanna peanut?

Hey, I was supposed to be the next post!
mmm

I don’t think I understood your OP at all, but in any case I hope I remember that you used to be a seasoned Doper, and are not just a presumptuous newbie, which is how it usually goes.

So ‘fungdark’ was not for you, then?

An event has as many meanings as it has observers. A username is no different. “Inigo Montoya” as an identity was a constant reminder to me of non-positive parts of myself that extend way beyond the occasional mortifying faux pas on a message board. To see that name, everytime I logged in here, was to feel bound to being who I was at the height of my sickness–suicidal, hopeless, worthless, disoriented. Sun Jester (if you haven’t checked out the lyrics) acknowledges a happily chaotic, larger-than-life persona that was painfully crushed into normality. It acknowledges the longing to feel that way again, and the impossibility of returning to it. I can live with being that, because that’s where I am.

Meh…we all check the join date for that. And there are plenty of presumptuous old-timers her as well anyway.

Aw, I love Inigo. He’s a good guy. But I’ll get used the new one too.

I want to put a smiley here, but I can’t bring myself to do it.

Too bad - you snooze, you lose. :slight_smile:

Anybody else hearing “The Great Sun Jester” sung to the tune of “The Big… Fig… Newtonnnnnn”?

Darn, I always have troubles with name changes. I’ll miss you Inigo Montoya but welcome The Great Sun Jester.

Can I call you Sunny?
