  • Dis? Dis? Who is Dis?

    Ok, we've all seen lots of people changing their nicks, and the change sometimes is for worse... (Deathtongue? What was Tube thinking?).

    But this one really intrigues me: Dissident, a classic, was reduced to a tasteless Dis. Dis? It's not even how we use to shorten his nick! We always use "Diss", not "Dis"! "Diss", you heard me?

    I'm appalled.

            To "dis" somebody is to show them disrespect. However, we never really respected him in the first place, so I, too, am confused.

                Mr. Mayor, the police are creating disorder!


                Mayor Daley: The job of the police is not to create dis order. The job of the police is to MAINTAIN dis order.

                  It was definitely less than 5 years ago. 4,5 years at most .

                      If memory serves, Dis is the capital city of Hell. Always suspected that Diss was a satanist.
                      Why can't you be a non-conformist just like everybody else?

                            Diss changing name is disconcerting.

                              It's a travesty. However now we can shorten it to just 'D'. When he changes it to just 'D', we can ignore him completely.
