My name has amazing powers when I log on to the computer with it. Suddenly everything in the household comes to a grinding halt and everyone, including the dogs, suddenly remembers something that HAS to be done AT THAT MOMENT and no one but me can assist!! It’s uncanny… ---

I am the Goddess of the Underworld. But unlike the original Persephone, I really _dig_ being in control of your soul. Heh. _…that’s MS. Persephone to you, dammit. Now bow before me, or it’s right into the Seventh Circle with you!_ ---

There is a small, unmarked door at the end of an alley in New Orleans. It’s made of shiny, stainless steel. There is a camera and a speaker over it. You push the black shiny button, and speak my name, they will ignore you. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by vanilla \* > \*\*Its the least popular flavor of ice cream in Nepal… \*\* How could people not like vanilla? It’s my favourite flavour. 🙂 Interesting(?) thing about my user name: I just named myself after a dragon from a book I liked, without thinking of any of the following words: Cucumber Cumbersome Cumber (yes, I’ve now been told that cumber itself is a word, and not a particularly flattering one either) ---

I signed up for this forum after I came home from a 1 month journey to Amsterdam and England. It has to be known that I had attended a 10 day school-journey to England this June as well - getting to know a nice English guy (actually he was the son of my host-rents… dont make the "then he was virtually your brother comment - it is not witty and has been made before) He introduced me to weed 🙂 Then I went to Amsterdam to hang around with my sis Radna and smoke and smoke and smoke - and after that I went back to England and oh joy! The Englishers’ rents were on holiday in Austria. (Where I am from LOL) We were together for those two niiiiiiice weeks… damn this post is getting long and useless… what I actually wanted to say was that the first part from my name comes from the film Trainspotting and the song “Born Slippy” that is in the film. The second word comes from the permanent overuse of the word “dodgy” by everybody I met in England and the fact that my lovely boyfriend told me one night that when we met the first time I looked well dodgy… at least he didnt add that I always do… that s what I call a gentlemen. 😉 I wish I had a cat to blame this post to… 😃 b dodgy ---

Contrary to what some people think, my username was not taken from the Pogues song of the same name. Nay, that song is filled with vulgar references to drinking, gambling, and carousing. Such vile indulgences are not for the likes of me! In truth, I am a devout and chaste follower of the lord, ever striving to bring the true word to the unclean, the heathens, and the blashpemers. And so my username is taken from Psalm 119: “For I am become like a bottle in the smoke; yet do I not forget thy statutes.” …or at least that was the best I could come up with when I plunked my name into a search engine… ---

Dire Wolf is backwards for Flowerid, a new medication to help prolong erection. I once had an albino pet wolf. One day, my neighbor yelled, “Hey, dye yer wolf!” If you say my name three times, you’ll wake up and see 600 pounds of sin. He’ll be grinning at your window, and all you’ll say is “Come on in.” The truth? > [@](#): > > In American mythology, the dire wolf is a menacing creature with fierce eyes and steel-like fangs, lurking in the darkness, and also in the song, “Dire Wolf,” concertized by the Grateful Dead. However, real dire wolves roamed America until about 9000 years ago. Remains of nearly 2000 dire wolves have been exhumed from the La Brea Tar Pits in Los Angeles. No wonder my fur is so sticky 🙂 ---
