**Kn\*ckers** and **tarragon918** would be mean, nasty bitches with bad attitudes and nothing nice, creative or funny to say to anyone.

I would be a nice guy and against the use of any mind-altering substance.

**Ringo** would change his user name to **Beatle** , yet still occasionally be referred to as Ringo several years later.

My excuse du jour just for Cranky - I wanted to go, but two things stopped me 1) a sinus infection that I finally went to the doctor for 2) I slept all day due to #1.

I didn’t even know I was missed.

</div>

**Terrifel** , like Halkan leader Tharn from the original episode, would turn out to be the one person who is exactly the same in the Mirror Universe, except slightly more worried-looking. Unfortunately, the irrational fear of Van Dyke beards (_flanderopogonophobia_) is much more of a handicap over there.

That’d be the only reason and only 'cause I post so much in 'em. If it weren’t for Trek, I doubt I’d have even a hundred posts.

</div>

For some unexplained reason, **KingPengvin** would be deathly afraid of beurocracy in general. He lives in South America and has no opinions at all about sci fi and other works of fiction.

He never wears shoes…  
**Aesiron** would be an upper east coast old woman that vomits everything she tries to eat except rice. Go figure. S/he (I know you’re a he, but this is MU!) would be absolutely fixated on Green Acres and Petticoat Junction. She is also William Shatner’s oldest shag, and considers TOS to be the pinnacle of network TV programming.

**Scotticher** would be a miser who pretended to be poor so people would give her money.

…And also, in a mirror universe, my posting average (slightly over 4 per day) would accurately reflect how often I post. Or at least be close.

In a mirror universe, people would know who the hell I am. 😃

I don’t recall posting about an insane love for kittens, but thanks so much.The rest would probably be true in that mirror-image world. Although… I’d probably also constantly post about how much I hate everyone, and don’t give a crap about 'em.

Anybody else want to do me? 🙂  
In a mirror-image universe, then:

**Spoz** would become the robot PC A.I. experiment he once jokingly accused me of being… and NOT abuse the English language to the ironic degree he does now. (to my mirror-image self, that would be just peachy)

**iampunha** (and others) would post about how we needed to get an anti-gay / anti-bisexual movement going… coz we all know those gays and bisexuals are deviants who would poison the world with their corrupt lifestyle!

Trollish, jerkish behavior would be encouraged at this forum.

We could openly debate the existence of **Cecil Adams** , and nobody would ban us for saying even the most egregious of things.  
Okay… that’s all I can come up with now… maybe more later.

Yeah . . .

Not everyone here is a “superstar” with easily recognizable personality traits or posting habits, which is why I hate threads like this.
