That was a bit sneaky. Type “shirley” for the user name and uncheck “exact name”. Along with the posts, you get a list of all user names that include “shirley”.
**Exapno Mapcase **is cool, once you learn the reference.
Oh. Don’t know how I haven’t noticed it before. But you’re still My Man because of your Lewis Stulze.
My favorite user name is Earl Snake Hips Tucker. My mind always adds quote marks: Earl “Snake Hips” Tucker.
I just snorted a little when I read that one.
Thnak you!
nm … I’ll fix this later.
That’s the big disadvantage to my board handle. I did not intend to offend anyone. I wanted to play on my tendency to misspell words.
ETA: The Blazing Saddles line is “Can’t you see that man is a ni-”. I should have been Chief Pedant.

I think it’s quite funny in how it makes your brain solve the puzzle: “Oh, it’s a typo in itself.” Only takes an nth of a second to figure out, but you know what I mean.
Anyone who would take offense at the arrangement of letters into k-n-i-g, or at the Mel Brooks gag it reminds me of, isn’t worth worrying about. Sez me.
Ook.
Thlug.
Grimp.
Thank you!
I kind of liked IlluminatiPrimus, sounded like a secret society of transformers.
Covered_In_Bees! is the perfect username. It has zip, urgency, a sense of danger and gives a description of the user. The exclamation mark on my handle is a mark of respect ( or possibly a shameless copy…)
Just out of curiosity, do you prefer the “Jag-War” or the “Jag-you-were” pronunciation or one I’ve yet to hear?
I’m from the commonwealth, so I pronounce it the same way as we say ‘Aluminium’
(Actually, closest would be Jag-you-are)
Much obliged! Nice to meet you.
Thinking about it, your first way is probably more faithful to the original Portuguese, but hey, accents, eh?
(Sidebar for Americans! In my experience, including having lived in British Columbia for a while, New Zealanders, especially rural male ones, use the word “Eh?” far, far more than Canadians ever do.)
As a side note to that comment, Flight of the Conchords is the funniest comedy series since Month Python, in my opinion. Too bad HBO couldn’t continue to spotlight them. Jemaine and Bret are genii!
Two names that always amuse me are you with the face and Thudlow Boink.
I like to say Thudlow Boink aloud. Because it is fun.
