What are your favorite other people's usernames

:smiley: Awww, thanks Millit.

Has anybody seen Eats_Crayons lately? Always made me smile.

I always liked What Exit’s name when I thought it was a reference to Sartre’s “No Exit” play. Then I found out it wasn’t referencing Sartre at all! I was shattered.

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.

Whatever happened to Eats Crayons?

OMG, I made the OP! Squeeeeeeeee! :slight_smile:

I get a giggle out of Ms Purl McKnittington’s name, and I’m horribly jealous that Mangetout managed to snag such a cool username with such an amusing franco-pun.

As for the runner-ups, I also giggle over FoieGrasIsEvil, despite the fact that I think foie gras can be tasty, you with the face gets more giggling, and even though I read it wrong half the time, Lobstermobster is still an awesome alias.

*“Baio,” Delia said, “just give me your gun,
He shot my Billy dead, now I’m gonna see him hung.”
She waded to DeLyon’s club through Billy DeLyons blood.
Stepped up to Staggerlee at the bar
and said, “Buy me a gin fizz love!”

As Staggerlee lit a cigarette she shot him in the balls.
Blew the smoke off her revolver, had him dragged to city hall.
“Baio, Baio, see you hang him high,
He shot my Billy dead and now he’s got to die!”*

– Robert Hunter, performed by The Grateful Dead

“What’s your favorite …?” threads belong in In My Humble Opinion.

I’ll move this for you.

I tend to like short, memorable ones with no numbers in them (ironic, yes):

Cervaise
What Exit?
Czarcasm
Der Trihs
Creaky
the raindog

…just off the top of my head.

I like Justin Bailey’s name because I was a big Metroid fan many years back.

Oops. Thanks, Cajun Man.

Me too! I once wrote an entire blog entry on glorious butternut squash, titled “Cucurbitae!”

If I remember this right, there was a drug enforcement guy in California in the 1960s named Ellis Dee. So, the joke runs a little deeper. :smiley:

Love, Yams!!
My tastes change all the time, and there are MANY great names around here, but this is one always makes me smile. Thought she was a he, though.

I liked Quasimodem - is he still around?

Regards,

Oh, so many…
**
What Exit?** because it’s a good NJ in-joke.
Spiny Norman and Dinsdale because I’m a Python freak.
Exapno Mapcase for its Groucho connection and because it’s just cool.
Qadgop the Mercotan for its (relatively) obscure origin.
«Ðëëp¤F®ïêd»™ for making the best use of every possible character on the keyboard.

Colibri, because he reminds me of these hummingbirds who used to come by Mom’s terrace and who’d mistake the clover flowers on a shirt I had for real ones… it tickled! My 9th grade science teacher was extremely surprised when she said that hummingbirds only live in tropical places and over half the ~45 student class claimed we’d seen them here (northern Spain). Colibrí = hummingbird, in Spanish. These ones were the kind called “Colibrí Abeja”, but I haven’t seen any in years, I don’t know if they died off.

Mahna Mahna because I love the Muppets. I used to hate Ms Piggy because I didn’t understand her, but a friend who made perfect use of “who, moi?” finally endeared me to her about 5 years ago.

WhyNot because, c’mon, who wouldn’t love that name? Plus I’ve spent my whole life asking Why… :slight_smile:

look!ninjas is another great exclamatory user name, but my favorite in that category (perhaps overall) is Interrobang?!

Glancing through the forums right now, I got a laugh out of Stanley (of cup fame).

He is. A recent thread in GQ referenced a bike ride he is making from Dallas TX to Dallas Georgia.

I liked whuckfistle but he changed it.

Another favorite of mine is punoqllads.

Quicksilver was smooth. Where’s he been since 12/06?
