> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Flamsterette\_X \* > **Fern Forest** used to be **Osiris** who used to be **Brother Rat**. I was trying to search on “Osiris,” and it always inexplicably came up empty. Whilst reading [this thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=126101&highlight=username), I happened to come across it. So there’s your answer, **Neidhart**. 🙂 > > F\_X BINGO. Although between Brother Rat and Osiris I was Jinxie for a few weeks. There are good reasons for each change. Hmm, you seem to know too much about me. Maybe I should change again? ---

Well! That explains what happened to **Osiris** … ---

In [this thread about how you got your username](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&postid=4194632#post4194632), **Mirrored Indigo Shadows** says she used to be **ssskuggiii**. (which I had half-forgotten about, actually…) **Fern Forest** , Don’t do that… you’ll make everyone else’s head spin. 😃 I’m not sure that would be a good reason for your next name change: “Flami knows too much about me.” I don’t think that would fly, to be honest. **dantheman** : It does indeed, very much so.

What if it was **Flami look behind you!**? Then I’d be safe. ---

No, I suggested that as a REASON… not as an alternative username, 😛 Although I guess if you changed your location to “sneaking up behind Flami,” that would be interesting. Hey, it just barely fits in the location box, much like my current one of “floating aimlessly in fog.” 😃 But if your new name was indeed what you suggested, you could be safe… it all depends. _evil grin_ F\_X ---

I don’t think you could look it up now, either. Pity, that. But if anyone knows or rmemebers, maybe they could post it here for posterity. F\_X ---

I like the new name better… is it supposed to sound like you console people in their dreams? (or that you console them after they’ve had the dreams?) 😃 ---
