Handles, handles, handles...

[af Ulm]

Af Ulm has always been my username, I think it's from an old Monthy Python scetch.

[Richard_III]

Well, my plan is to become King of England. I intend to achieve that goal the same way Richard III did. Unfortunately, I have a few more victims to knock off before attaining that pinnacle. Having fruitlessly waited for (several) nuclear detonations followed by a mass outbreak of BSE to clear the way, I have decided to take direct action. I intend to stand that old Monty Python skit on its head and develop a joke so horrible that the listener dies:

RIII: My grandfather died 100 years ago today in a horrible parachute accident.
Victim: Parachutes weren’t invented 100 years ago.
RIII: I know, that’s why he was killed!
Victim: Aaargh! Dies.

Haven’t found that magic joke yet….

Af Ulm—
IIRC that should be cetera censeo Stockholm esse delendum. No such word ‘praetera,’ although there is a ‘praeterea.’

RIII: When you finally take over the kingdom, will you trade it to me for a horse?

[Richard_III]

That had better be one heck of a horse!

[Crustacian]

A Hermit Crab is a tenacious Crustac-e-an. With an "i" it reminds me of Emperors of olde.
But mostly the nickname "Crusty" is why I like it.
ya ya... one more handle won't hurt will it?

[ghen]

lol, you just had to bump this didn't you? My name stems from the fact that aol has too many members

[Narck]

Narck = Narc from an old C64 game I used to have (but there were too many ppl already using that handle on the Internet)

Therefore:

Narc + k = Narck



This thread was started before I even registered. Amazing.

[Du_Chateau]

[sarcasm]Du Chateau, I wonder how I got this name. Probably because it is my last name[/sarcasm]

Seriously though it is French for "of the castle." I think that du chateau sounds much better then of the castle. The underscore between the two names to remind me of the times when people would put my last name like this, Duchateau.

[Graag]

When I was just a little 15 (maybe 14) year old in 1994/5 I used to play a text adventure on a BBS called Legend Of the Red Dragon (LORD) on my trusty 1400 BPS modem. Anyway, everyone had names like Breedle The Destroyer and stuff like that, and I decided on Overlord Graag. Over time, and because the name was a little over the top for message baoards and the like, it was shortented simply to Graag.

Interesting sidenote, Graag is swedish for 'yes please', a fact I was not aware of when I made the name up. This causes swedish people to say swedish things at me in chat rooms, but I'm used to it now.
It also means 'kiss me' in an african dialect, another thing I didn't know when i made it up.

Other names I have gone by:

Hugo Rune - amasingly brilliant character from 3 books by Robert Rankin

JesusMachine - invented as a band name, and sounded cool at the time

Dr Admio Lamwankis - anagram of my name (not the doctor bit)

Graag: I think u mean dutch people. the swedish word is "gärna" or "ja tack".
however Graag is dutch for "yes, please".
I dunno about the african wording but...
