> [@](#): > > Cal Meachum is one of my faves because I like the reference. Why, thank you **Hypno** , but two minor things: 1.) It’s **Cal MeachAm** , whether in Raymond Jones’ novel, Rex Reason’s character, or my _nom de Internet_. 2.) As I use the name, there’s no space in **CalMeacham**. ---

Amber from Treasury. Or was it Amber in Treasury? This one really made me laugh when I realised it was taken from a very funny pit post. Amber had obviously been reading and paying attention before she signed up. If I change my user name, I’d like to be **Hal’s Little Lamb**. Maybe. 🙂 ---

[QUOTE=Savannah] If I change my user name, I’d like to be **Hal’s Little Lamb**. Maybe. 🙂 [/QUOTE] Careful. That might make you **Mutton the Frail**. I like **Qadgop the Mercotan** ’s name, but it’s hard to separate that from liking the poster. Other names I like: **Scott Plaid** **Typo Knig** **Yams!!** **Fretful Porpentine** **Candid Gamera** ---

**Big Bad Voodoo Lou** …I get a kick out of that name. You have to say it out loud; it just rolls off the tongue. And it leaves me wondering, is he some sort of dreadlocked Rasta dude? Or is he some kind of mutant that looks like Telly Savalas with Queequeg’s tattoos? Or maybe a skinny little crazy magic man! Or…? ---

I think **brujaja** is a pretty sweet name. Maybe one syllable too many though:) I always like this threads because I learn fun username tidbits. I never picked up on **I Love me Vol I** or **Ellis Dee** either. The last on I got a kick out of was **Bob Loblaw** Perfectly normal looking name that is kickass when you read it out loud. ---

**Dilton Doiley,Philosopher King** (the lack of a space after the comma is _sic_). The name comes from an _Archie_ comic character, altho he wasn’t a philosopher king in the comics, just a class egghead. ---

Yeah, I bumped it. 'S only 8 days since the last psot. Not like it’s a zombie or anything. Oh and. **Santos L Halper**. (Yet another of the 64,723 _Simpsons_ memes floating around the toobz.) Braaaaaainnnnns. ---

Besides the clever ones, I like references to personal fandoms. **Ilpallazzo** is the big one - I have to restrain myself from Hail!ing everytime. Oh, and **Napier** especially with all the Joker fic I’ve been reading lately. ---

**1920sDeathRay** because it makes me happy just seeing it… **Mangetout Sophistry and Illusion** ---

I don’t know if **Bob Loblaw** is a fan of “Arrested Development” or not, but it makes me smile everytime I see his name. I also like **Sue Duhnym**. I saw her(?) post the other day and it said she joined March 2008, which is weird because I swear I have seen her name around here from way before that. **Candid Gamera** makes me laugh. I always picture a giant smiling turtle. ---

[QUOTE=bbs2k] You bumped it. love, **yams!!** (see? isn’t it adorable?) [/QUOTE] Yes, it is. It is the most adorable thing _ever_–and I don’t even like yams. (not **yams!!** but yams… you know.) I also love **BellRungBookShut-CandleSnuffed** because of the intrigue it creates. My favorite username is **brujaja** because ‘‘bruja’’ is Spanish for witch and ‘‘jaja’’ is how you spell ‘‘haha’’ in Spanish, so it creates a vibe of evil cackly laughter. And everybody loves **HypnoToad**! :eek: ---

[QUOTE=bbs2k] **yams!!** How could I forget about her?! I love love love her. And I think it’s adorable that she always signs her posts I just want to hug her everytime. [/QUOTE] Couldn’t have said it better myself. I love **yams!!** for that exact reason. 🙂 Some of my all-time faves (dunno if some of them are still around or not): **Mathochist Czarcasm Sentient Meat ottoerotic Bosda Di’Chi of Tricor Enola Straight Spectre of Pithecanthropus The Chao Goes Mu Chairman Pow** And I’ll probably get groans for this, but I actually liked the dopername of **Kel Vernsen - Latex Division**.
