Err, right, that might be taken in the wrong context. Backstory: I had a Geography teacher a couple of years ago who didn’t really assign any work, she just sat around and complained about how horrible the world was, or ranted about how wonderful the world was. That’s who you remind me of. ---

Huh… not sure that’s much better LOL! I didn’t know I came across so whiney ☹ You know, I still haven’t taken my nap. Bad Opal! ---

\*\* Ringo\*\* for some reason gives me the ideas of both “Lord of the Rings” and Ringo Star, so I get this picture of Frodo playing drums. 😃 \*\* Gadfly \*\* is, of course, a fly, hearing the problems of other insects and helping them out. \*\* NoClueBoy\*\* reminds me of my ex boyfriend…he never had a clue either 😃 **Opalcat** is an iridescent kitty stretched out in front of the keyboard, daintily typing with one paw. **AwSnappity** reminds me of local high school slang. When something really cool happened all of a sudden, like you got the highest grade on a test in your class, you would say “Aw, snap!” **FireUnderpantsBoobs** , your name makes me think of a fireman rescuing a topless woman from a burning building. ---

**Opalcat** makes me think of a little baby kitty wearing opal jewelery. How obvious, I know. **NoClueBoy** makes me think of a kid with an incredibly blank look on his face, like he understands _nothing_. Sort of like the face Homer Simpson gets when he is eating. (no offense intended sweetie!) **mrsface** puts a picture of a woman’s severed head floating in front of me. It’s quite disturbing. (again, no offense instead. I’m sure your severed head is lovely. :D) **AwSnappity** reminds me of a mousetrap snapping onto someone’s foot, and that person going, “ahhhh.” So now, you all have an insight into my brain. I’m going to be heckled with, \* “we’re trying to FIGHT ignorance here, moron! Begone with you and your slow, witless brain!”\* ---

**Captain Blunty** makes me think of girls in bikinis playing beach volleyball. And no one knows why. Which reminds me… t’s NOT noone! IT’s NO ONE! Noone looks like a one syllable word, perhaps the Olde English forme of noon. As in twelve o’clock pm It’s _no one_! No more shots! I don’t WANT any more shots! When my father finds out where I’m at, he’ll come put me in a cleaner place. One with _real_ doctors! You’ll see! ---

My screen name is Japanese, but I am not. Ilsa makes me think of a really bad movie called Ilsa - She Wolf of the SS and its sequel - Ilsa - Harem Keeper of the Oil Sheiks. Really, really bad. Sorry, but I imagine you as a tall blonde female with a whip and leather boots and a director yelling “Cut!” in the middle of a porno scene, and everybody breaking for lunch. Actually, all of you are just the voices in my head… Regards, Shodan ---

**No Clue Boy** - Larry Sellers, from The Big Lebowski. **Coldfire** - One of the nihilists from The Big Lebowski (probably the one played by Flea). ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Gadfly \* > \*\ ***Flamesterette\_X** - A girl in a red and black spandex suit, with flaming red hair, who shoots gouts of flame out of her hands. \*\* Hmm… why does that put me in mind of _Dragonball Z_ or other Japanese _anime_ stuff? 😃 Gouts of flame, eh? That would be very interesting to accomplish, indeed… especially since gout is a disease causing painful swellings in the joints. (particularly the toes, knees and fingers) Unless you’re trying to say that I’ll transmit my gout to everyone else through my fingers… that would be so wickedly cool. 😃 (although I don’t have gout myself, and never hope to have it) F\_X ---
