With such rational, conciliatory, win-win ideas, I see where you got the name of Satan! :smiley:

Satan with the Nobel Peace Prize… what an idea.

Satan took the words right out of my mouth.

(not really… but what a bumper sticker!)

Or how about these…

I talked to Satan today.

Satan is my friend.

I agree - we must notify Stockholm at once. All hail Satan, bringer of peace! :wink:

Poly - so Eve = Flora McFlimsey? I’m always the last to know. Who else has gone under multiple names that I should know about (Gaudere/andros/Clark K aside, of course

).

meara - I don’t think I’d qualify for any sort of cultural elite, but Brothers Karamazov is one of my all-time faves. Not that I don’t go through more than my share of mysteries, SF, and fantasy. Dump on Ulysses if you must, but don’t knock my Dostoevsky - them’s fightin’ words! :slight_smile:

Satan as a prize winner of any kind might cause a problem. Most of the speaches I hear thank God for the success.

What would Satan do? (WWSD)

You’re aware that Krispy Original has had more identities than Sybil? (but I think only one at a time)

As a jape, Sterling North has in the past posted under several “vacated” screen names. (Which is why I “blamed” him in my mock-conspiracy theory item in the Phaedrus thread in the Pit).

A number of members of Homo jerquenus have decided to play “guess which persona I am today.” (And a couple of regulars have done this with much better humorous effect.)

Zette played Santa at Christmas, and I think Bug Vomit (that was the alternym for one regular woman poster, but I’m not positive it was Zette).

Two alternyms that somebody used to good effect were GOD (who posted like the real Big Guy might) and Deceased Equine (who complained of being beaten when a thread went on and on and on and on and…).

Anything I’m missing?

I thought Bug Vomit was Mike King. I also thought Deceased Equine was a shill for the admins when they got tired of a thread, but perhaps I am wrong. Daniel P. Bostaph is now Bosa D’ Something-or-Other.

If you look at the other end of the spectrum, there was the mononymic multitude of LoVeRoCK. But the less said about that, the better.

Satan sed:

I take it this is a state of being equivocated with Pam Dawber?

(Sound of glass breaking.)

Orson Scott Card—oyes. ‘Treason’, oyes. ‘Ender’ ad infinitum en perpetua.

Stanislaw Lem, Marion Zimmer Bradley, Alan Dean Foster, The Piers-Meister, Bunch and Cole…

Stephen ‘Bump Inna Night’ King.

Edgar Rice Burroughs. Jules Verne. Edgar Allen ‘Ain’t No Thang’ Poe…

And Tintin books.

Man, my teenage library rocked!

Here’s a few other alternyms off the top of my head. These all occured in series, rather than parallel and were announced by the posters themselves.

Thank God I didn’t show up until after the l’Affair Loverocque!!

Authors: Robert A. Heinlein, Spider Robinson, Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle (separately or collaboratively), Marion Zimmer Bradley, Lois McMaster Bujold, Katherine Kurtz, John Varley, Vernor Vinge, John Barnes…

Do you see a pattern here?

And of course Snark lost his -berries. :slight_smile:

[Moderator Hat: ON]

Well, I was about to agree with Satan, but then I saw that you guys got even more mundane and pointless!

But, what the heck, I’ll leave it. It did start sort of as a debate, or, well, at least related to one. But I swear, if anybody starts BUMPing threads or bringing in food and root beer, there will be hell to pay! :mad:

[Moderator Hat: OFF, but easily at hand should food show up…]

runs in and asks David…

Is hell expensive?

runs back out quick!!

I think Satan would be the one to pick up that tab.

O’k, I know I’m overtired… I just worked 36 hours straight and then sat in the DMV for 2 hours to renew my long expired drivers license (yes, I fell asleep in the DMV- didn’t think it possible)… but … WHAT?

And be assured, I think I’ve overcome my urge to bump.

“Have you hugged Satan today?”

Oops I “Phaedrussed”… was that correct usage??? (I have the feeling it isn’t)

I meant to say: WHAT are you guys talking about??? Are we back on our summer reading lists or did I completely fall off the boat? Maybe I should just sleep it off.

As far as I know, there is no correct usage for Phaedrus.

At least, none that he’s discovered yet.

Relax, Pita; although you spelled “OK” incorrectly, at least you don’t spell “cool” as “kewl.”

I dunno, John. He served pretty well as, “Whipping-Boy, 3rd Class,” for a while.
