The AOL Instant Messenger Thread!

[dantheman]

Ok, you’ve all doubtless seen SwimmingRiddles recent thread about the ICQ Messenger. (All right, maybe you didn’t see it. But it’s there, and 50-something people have replied…)

How about one for us AIMers? (Or those of you on AOL proper.)

So, to steal from Swiddles thread, in this one anyone who has the AOL Instant Messenger can list their screen name if they so desire.

Be warned! Posting your screen name in this thread might attract flirters of any gender to IM you at any moment! Day or night! Regular or unleaded!

I’ll begin.

Remember, if someone IMs you, you do have the option not to accept the initial IM (and therefore not add them to your list and vice versa). By the same token, if someone new IMs you and you’ve posted your name in this thread, remember that the new person might be from the good ol’ SDMB, and not your run-of-the-mill wack-a-mole.

Have at it!

[iampunha]

My SN comes from the days before iampunha was even a glint in mine eye.

Erlidh

Yes, you read that right: Erlidh.

If you want an explanation . . . well, now you have a way to ask without hijacking this thread!

[Evnglion]

I have a pretty organized life. If my name is something somewhere, it is going to be something very similar somewhere else. my nick on SDMB = Evnglion. on AIM it is

NGEvnglion

This comes from the fantastic Anime called Evangelion. All for now

[Mauvaise]

I have two, one for work and one for home.

Home: Mauvaise3

Work: SubmittalQueen

[Tommy_the_Cat]

Submittal Queen…hmmmmm
::Raises eyebrow::
The mind veritably reels at the possibilities.

[The_Tof]

Like Mauvaise I have two AIM names.

At Work-- Screeme18
At Home-- Screeme602

Feel free to IM

I find this utterly fascinating! That the more risque of the two names is the one you use at work, while the comparatively tame one is the home one!

Does this mean you’re subservient at work? Hmmmmm…

[Falcon]

CITAmy.

Same for both work and home.

[TheNerd]

noophage

Think I should change my SDMB handle to match?

[MsRobyn]

I’d post mine, but it happens to be my full name, and I don’t want any whack-a-moles finding me.

If you want to know, e-mail me and I’ll let you have it.

[FairyChatMom]

it’s FairyChatMom - big surprise, huh?

So far, there’s just one person who’s ever talked to me there… I figured it was the intimidation thing, but I’m almost always looking for chat in all the wrong places…

Well, we’ll have to change that, won’t we FairyChatMom?

I hate to burst any bubbles but there is a perfectly innocent, logical, and rather boring reason “SubmittalQueen” is my work nick:

My job is putting together submittals of light fixtures, I’m good at my job, hence I’m the SubmittalQueen (but you should see some of the strange IMs I get on ICQ – just installed AIM at work today, I imagine I’ll get the same there too)

[Arden_Ranger]

Wait for it…

Ready?

Arden Ranger.

Imagine that.

Oh.

[resigned sigh]

So! Are you a domme or a sub?

Man, I wouldn’t dare install AIM at work. I’m lucky enough no one’s told me to knock it off with the SDMBing, already.

[The_Mermaid]

cindismojo on AIM

no special reason other than my name is Cindi

[Pammipoo]

My AOL name that I’m almost always on: Pinkpammi
My AIM name that I’m occasionally on when not on AOL:kinkepinki. You wouldn’t believe how many of my friends think I’m a porn site when I first IM them from this name.

But I’m always open for a good conversation, so as long as you’re not a 13 year old boy, or a 40 year old guy tryin to get into my pants, I’ll be glad to talk!

[Deiket]

My AOL handle is Deiket Lady

Surprise, surprise. I use that one as a role playing name as well, so the profile’s a bit odd. My real profile, or ALMOST real profile is under JDevil1013

[Xploder]

I use Xploder1269 as I used to use Xploder (changed isp’s and forgot the password) Xploder12 (same thing) and Xploder69(ditto)

Xploder has had a LOT of different ISP’s.

Again, I just LOVE my cable modem!
