Whose Doper name do you feel you need a little info on?

Holy handgrenade of antioch! I’ve been reading SM for years and never twigged that the name is red shirt spelled backwards until now. :smack: Gods I feel stoopid.

I hope no one has difficulty understanding mine, because I would rather not get twisted up in circles trying to explain it and the deal with everyone’s cold stairs.

:smiley: Love it.

Man, the nerd factor in that is exponentially high!

My username is a lame attempt at humor. Many people find foie gras production as morally corrupt, and when I joined here I was still in the restaurant business and foie gras was my favorite food, and I thought it would be fun to tweak the noses of the bleeding hearts that actually “care” about the ethical treatment of animals destined for slaughter, particularly “stupid birds”.

My views have changed a lot since then, I am now moving into a “With the food options I have in this country, an animal shouldn’t have to die for me to eat” territory, although steak is still a weakness. Plus cows are stupid.

:slight_smile:

I was hoping you would step up with an explanation.
mmm

Scabpicker has a pretty cool story behind his username in his profile.
A little green with envy at the awesomeness of Least Original User Name Ever.

This Steve Harris fan isn’t referring to Maiden (nor VH nor Haskell), but, unfortunately, former Secretary of the Interior James Watt has instructed me not to divulge why, and so I won’t be going into that.

ok complete and total off-the-rails hi-jack here but I gotta ask and know now, considering it’s been a week since this noob made this inquiry, and still no response from admin…(so tough farty beans for this non-sequitur)… …Am I sock-puppeting if I use a different username at the Giraffe website?

Soks apply to one forum: if you create two accounts with different names on one forum, usually in order to make it look like two people have the same opinion, that is a sok. You can create one account on as many different fora with as many different names each as you like and no one anywhere will give a leap.

I don’t know which way is up with eschereal.

My username is from an old video game called Hexen. Plus I couldn’t think of anything else.

thanks.

not sure what Freezair SilverEye means

Kneepants Erasmus, the Humanist gets a high bidder’s nod.

Wondering if buns3000 has to do with…aaaa I don’t think I’ll go there.

Just to clarify, for new Dopers: By “forum,” these guys mean “message board.” Here, we use “forum” to (also) mean “General Questions,” “Cafe Society,” etc. Obviously, using a different account/username for each of these SDMB forums is a bannable offense.

I mean it.

Agreed. He can be flighty.
mmm

But that is always transitional.

I always thought you had some sort of connection to Haus Esche that dated back to the Spanish siege of Coevorden

Just pronounce it out loud, and you’ll figure it out.

I assume.

Just don’t say it out loud three times.

It would be easier to remember without the dashes, and would show up on an Internet search for the Hittite ruler.

I had always guessed it was some joke on the periodic table, but Fluorine.Plutonium-??-Helium-Proactinium-Arsenic never made any sense either.

Since that’s an entirely separate website, there would be no problem.

Anyone want a peanut?
