Ah, you’re Michael Ellis.
Just last week I was Morkfromork. Had I known when I registered that I was going to stick around for a little while, I’d have put more thought into a moniker.
I feel the same way about my name, Standup Karmic. Yours is pretty cool, by the way.
Thanks. It feels like a nice, warm blanket that I can wrap myself in, while Morkfromork just felt like sandpaper that I was using to “shave” my naughty bits.
Nice imgery there, Standup Karmic. I like your new name, by the way… it does sound nicer than your old one. (not that the old one wasn’t, but y’know… this one sounds more euphonious and melodically pleasing to the ear when I say it in my head)
I think mine doesn’t really need to be changed… it’s a nickname for myself that I’ve had for many years now.

Actually, I still am.
From clicking on this thread, I see BogieBlanca has changed his / her name to Muldoon’s Squishiness.

I was once m^5… It turns out the hamsters don’t like some ascii food…
I used to be Mudshark2911, but that only lasted about a month.
I just remembered that Bippy the Beardless changed his name from keithmac near the beginning of this year.

Yes, he did.
I e-mailed C K Dexterhaven and Arnold Winkelried and bowed and scraped and made offerings and sacrifices and pledged the soul of my 3rd born child to Cecil, and to nail the deal…
…I brought 3.1459265358:p
My new Doper name reminds me of my new little brother, all 7 months and 28 lbs of him. Pics will be forthcoming.
In this thread, we finally have a 1920’s Style Death Ray:

I was tlw. Now I’m phonetically 2/3rds the woman I once was.
As my new sig indicates, my loss of a W should not be construed as a political statement. As T.L.W. are my initials, it should also not be construed as an indication that I am no longer married to the bringer of the W, I am, and will remain so for a very long time, I’m sure.
As a plain matter of fact, I just wanted a name that I could run an occasional egosearch on.
Dear mods: If enough of us wrote in, would you give fire under pants boobs her old name back?
Whoa! tlw is female!
Who knew?!?
I gotta say, this has been very educational. Turns out some posters I’d been missing were really here all along!
I was once javaman, but, along with several others, got temporarily banned by Manhattanfor getting political in GQ.
I didn’t like being banned, but I did come to understand why it had happened and where I had crossed the line. Manhattan was happy to welcome me back once I promised to reform so in the end it was a positive experience. This, then, is my farewell salute to him…a fair, tough, and most capable moderator who did his best to preserve the essence of GQ.
Anyway, I decided to change my name when I was reinstated.
Her signing her posts ‘Tracey’ should have given it away.
Of course, you may be confusing her with tdn.
Not necessarily. There are male Traceys!
Or maybe I am thinking of tdn.
By the way, what in the wide world of sports is a “recordation,” anyway???
