Meant to post: Taking a cue from **«Ðëëp¤F®ïêd»™** : Why not something healthier, like **«Ö¥êńβŗőĬĻĕď»™**? But accidentally posted it in a Pit thread. They’ll likely tear it apart before it even sees the light of day. ---

Some great ones: **BaseBalrog** has a certain appeal. **Lord of the Badda-Bings** is funny but maybe a little too much. It might make the voting round anyway. I just had a offboard friend tell be Jersey Jim won’t work, try **Jim of the Shire**. \*\*Global Worming \*\* is pretty cool too. \*\*Sock Puppet Apocalypse \*\* I love this one, but I think that would both put a target on my back and probably displease the admins. \*\*Bush \*\* If I wanted to be pitted this would do it, won’t go on my list but thankyou Mr Bur Guy. 😃 **Boiling Lead On The Testes** :eek: Thank you, I’ll pass 😉 **Ar-Pharazon the Golden Glove?** I think I would rather be associated with the good guys. **What exit?** This should probably go on the list, when I was in boot camp, I was asked this as a joke, I didn’t realize it was a joke and answer, “Oh, between 109 and 114, do you know the area?” If I missed any I apologize.
