Actually, looking back over this thread it seems to consist mostly of answers from people who didn't stick around.
Still, it was started by Ali and I posted an honest, if brief response in it, so we give it gravitas.

You too now.

There are a couple of other threads on this topic. Looks like I never saw this one. My handle is an old college nickname.

see:

and also

and

and again

You win the prize for being the most thorough.
I lose for mostly just searching under my own name, which means I missed at least three (concluded before I joined)

Interesting reads though.

I want to change my name to: ema cympeltin

I want to change mine to "Imma Letya"

There must be more threads. I remember addressing the issue once but most of those threads are before my time.

Yeah, I don't claim to have done an exhaustive search. There must be more.

good one!

Right before I fell asleep last night I thought of a good misspelled user name but I forgot it. Had I known of this thread I would have written it down.

Where'd you get yours from?

Kind of sounds familiar. Is it the Chronicles of Thomas Covenant you're refering to?

Me...

I'd change it if I could, but no point in doing so now. It serves as a reminder how things were about three years ago - I really felt like I was going mad - family issues, extended family issues, etc...

There's a lot of drama in my extended family. We (my wife and I) rarely get involved anymore (although they'd love for us to "solve their problems" again). We learned they'd just take advantage of us and then dump on us later anyway. Sad to say, but our own grown kids did a number on us too.

The other part of it is my sense of humor. It's a little off the norm. :nuts:

My reasons for my user name were threefold: only one of those reasons is still relevant, and that is the obvious reason.

I wish I had chosen Heywood Jablomee.;)

I saw some very cool photos of Saturn recently, and fell in love.

Favorite band. (I am far from being a queen in any sense of the word, let alone having my own Ryche.....)
