Depending on the configuration I use, I’m either:
“Tha Curly Haired Slacker,” or
“Ol’ Filthy, Sweaty Bastard.”
🙂
That _is_ cool, right? Right? Hello?

Most curious. It seems that, depending on which name I use, I am:
The Visible Choirboy (real name–this goes oddly with the “Use it wisely, soldier.”), International Cow (middle name), or null (screen name). Adding my FPK title gets me “Contagious Specialist”.
Despite any potential jokes, I think I prefer Choirboy–although Contagious Specialist has its appeal. Opinions, anyone?

Back up and let the **Big Wicker Ventriloquist** through.

Ummm. Ok, IRL I’m “Promiscuous Protestah”. Ironic, since, IRL I despise people who are EITHER of these.
But using my SDMB name, I’m… I’m…[sub]oh, cheezez, have mercy[/sub] **“Chocolatey Shatner”** WTF?!? :eek:
'scuse me while I go commit Wu-Tang hari-kari…

I got **Jive Talkin’ Choirboy** (using my real name), **Sweaty Butcher** (using my former name), and **Partially Formed Transformah** (using my birth name), and finally, **Budget Nudist** , using msrobyn straightdope.
Who is Wu Tang anyway?

Silver Fire = Lazy-Assed Destroyer
Well, they got the “Lazy-Assed” part right… 🙂
I tried quite a few different name combinations using my first, middle, and last names. My favortie was my middle/last name combo which became “Gorky’s Zygotic Glove Puppet”. It sings, really.

Doh! I didn’t think of using Straightdope as a surname. I get more interesting results that way, but if I stick with my title, I’ll share a name with Unca Cecil. Decisions, decisions…I guess I’m not worthy of Contagious Specialist. Say hello to the Erratic Assassin!

I also got “Visible Choirboy” with my real name. My nickname in college got me “Grand Moff Puppeteer”, and my best friend’s name came up “Violent Toilet Thing” which goes incredibly well with the “Use it wisely, soldier.”
