I always liked the name of that comic book anti-hero Deadpool. I just sliced off the Dead.
I actually hate it when people chatter on endlessly with absolutely no point, and I feel like I’m subjected to it all the time. But I love the word.
reads Rigamarole’s post, then thinks of own post… then thinks of posts in general…
Wow, you must not like me very much! 
E. is my real first initial, and **Thorp **is an old family name (which hasn’t appeared as a surname in my family since the 19th century…but my mother and one of my cousins have it as a middle name).
Simplified version:
Mr. Stasaeon: “Anastasia, you are my star, my Anastasaeon!”
Me: “Awww!”
Mr. Stasaeon: “You are my flower, my Anastasalily!”
Me: “Err…”
Anastasaeon, it is.
I used this user name in another board from when I lived in Tokyo (still work there, but live in Yokohama) and spent all my times in bars.
Now happily married and in Yokohama, but somehow YokohamaEx-Player doesn’t seem as fun.
I love these threads. You always learn so many interesting things. Ellen Cherry is the name of a Tom Robbins character. Ellen is my real name, which is what I signed up with, lo these many years ago. So boring. So I whipped it up a bit with the “Cherry” a few years ago. When I see it, I think “Ellen’s Cheery,” which I mostly am. 
Practice, practice, practice!
Having once played Richard in a community theater production of “The Lion in Winter,” every time I see your moniker on these boards I am reminded of Eleanor’s line: “I even made poor Louis take me on Crusade. How’s that for blasphemy. I dressed my maids as Amazons and rode bare-breasted halfway to Damascus. Louis had a seizure and I damn near died of windburn… but the troops were dazzled.” It would take a king to win a woman like that!
huh, up until now I always read your name as Reverend Threshold - although you never seemed overly religious.
A long time ago my name was typed in all caps except for the small e at the end. Eventually (some change in the system, I think just after the sdmb winter) the software wouldn’t let me type it all in caps and I never tried to again… So the pun of my name doesn’t work.
Its my last name.
Funny, but that’s one of my middle names. And “E” is my first initial.
I’m not getting the pun, though.
Clayton Smalley? But that doesn’t sound familiar.
I like seeing things in 3D
“Právník” is Czech for “lawyer.” I used to live in the Czech Republic, and I’m a lawyer. Literally translated, “právník” means something like “truther.”
I’m a hairy gay man who lives on the edge of the second largest swamp in Georgia. Hence, swampbear.
I signed up just so I could post to “I shouldn’t have laughed at that” . Apparently, I lack imagination so I just used the first thing that came to mind.
I’m also a bit odd and tend to laugh at a lot of things others may not find so funny. I must say, I feel pretty comfortable here, though. :dubious:
Mine is just a pre-emptive strike against anyone who may ever try to pit me. I imagine somebody typing “I pit Mostlyclueless for being totally ignora”- ‘aw, fuck it’.
(Obviously, it’s also a H2G2 reference, where Earth is classified as “mostly harmless”.)
When it was CLAYTON_e… The pun… or is it really a pun? It’s a small e.
