Another vote for Exapno Mapcase; my library used to have Harpo Marx’s autobiography and I think my husband and I were the only people ever to check it out. We probably read it about five times each. It must have been discarded, which distresses me as we surely would have bought it. ---

> [@Marley23](#): > > **FireUnderpantsBoobs** was maybe the funniest handle we ever had here. This was also my favorite - half because it’s a great name, the other half because she got it (IIRC) by asking her nephew what his 3 favorite things were. He reminds me of my kids 😃 ---

I forget how he parsed it, but two and a half inches of fun was a great username. Also DerTrihs brought out the geek in me when I finally thought I had realized what it meant (turns out I wasn’t actually quite geeky enough to get it entirely). ---

I’m insanely jealous of **Mangetout** , for grabbing that username long before I ever could. It’s brilliant. I also get a giggle out of **cometothedarksidewehavecookies** , **Always Brings Pie** and **Stealth Potato** ’s usernames. Hmmm… apparently I have a thing for food-related handles. 🙂 ---

**ComeToTheDarkSideWeHaveCookies** would have to be number one. I imagine it as a Darth Vader type voice saying _ **Come To The Dark Side** _ then a little kid piping up with _ **We Have Cookies!** _ while waving a cookie around. **pbbth** Have to make the sound effect while reading that one 😛 **Mahna Mahna** \*do do do do do \* ---

> [@Savannah](#): > > What was the one I used to see– **Filthy Beast of Meat and Hair**? I liked that a lot. I like that one, too, and I was surprised to find out where it came from: a really great, unfortunately short-running cartoon called **Invader Zim**. The title character, Zim (an inept alien invader disguised as an elementary school student), says it to Tak, the hideous new girl (that’s the title of the episode). Found a vid of it, the line’s about 45 seconds in: [“Now, prepare your brain, filthy beast of meat and hair!”](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nJ_3Pu3QvqE) ---
