That settles it - Whistle gets a spit-roast in July.


Hell yes, enough with this evasive, yet insinuating behaviour.

Saint Genesius is the patron saint of actors. I'm a girl, so I made it Genesia. shrug



Interesting...are you an actress/inspiring? I think I read in one of your posts before that you were in a local version of a famous play/musical (sorry, I can't remember what it was!).

Hey, when everything else seems taken, your own name is a safe bet to be free. I almost did the same thing.

Dan said it best....

New World adventurers traverse the virgin land,
Like conquistadors who claim their booty, wealth and risk go hand in hand,
The time is now, may your plans be singularly exact and hastened,
There is thinking and no thinker but the Jason,

Georgia, North Carolina, Alabama, anywhere south of the Mason-Dixon,
He claims all territories for himself--every woman, virgin or vixen,
If you don't want to be left outside to fester in the sun like a raison,
Then you better understand there is nothing but the Jason,

The ladies want him in their vajay jay, nay? The fellas in the back door,
If you don't understand, then Ninja, your not keeping score,
Your vagina isn't yours anymore, it is all but emblazoned,
with the signature tattoo upon your hoo hoo that reads, "There is nothing but... The jason"

There is nothing but the Jason
There is nothing but the Jason
There is nothing but the Jason.

TheVoid 1/9/10


lol (in my best Larry the Cable Guy impression, ahem)--I don't care who you are, that right there is funny! As long as we can avoid festering like a "raison".

Perhaps some botany in your background? I've heard few people refer to a flower as "florescent." Hence your avi as well!

Perhaps after just reading a snide comment from an Orger? lol

MacDaddy said:

My dad's initials are P.C.M and he taught himself how to work on both a PC and a Mac. He jokingly referred to himself as "PC Mac Daddy".

I love Mac's and couldn't come up with anything original myself so I therefore chose MacDaddy


What are Macs? You mean like the Mac computers? Or something else? I thought maybe you were just Irish. smile

zaza said:

My name is Jan Zalubil - or you could say Honza Zalubil. My friends always shortened it to Zaza..it's my nickname smile



So after reading your subsequent posts, I guess Honza is short for Jan? I've never understood that about some nicknames or shortened names, how/why they actually have more letters and more syllables than the "real" name.

Mine is my name.



Yeah, I searched it and I think it was August 2008. But I figured we've had a lot of new folks join since then, and not many folks replied in the original thread (which appears to be the same direction this one is heading!). Cool avi, by the way.

Fauxie said:

From a stupid alter account, was 'fauxnewbie', which people shortened to 'faux', but then later came 'fauxie'. It's stuck.

[Edited 5/5/10 16:33pm]



So should I pronounce it like "foe-e" or "fokesy" (with a long o)?

It was more recent than that. I don't think I was that active on here in 2008.

"Honey" was a childhood nickname.

"Hershe" (for a change), like the chocolate, but spelled different.


Are you called Honey outside of the Org? Cool avi too, by the way.

Lammastide said:

Lammas is the Christianized version of Lughnasadh, an ancient Gaelic holiday commencing the end of summer. "Lammastide" simply suggests the time of year around Lammas, which happens also to be my favorite time of year.


What is the significance of Lammas other than being the end of summer? How in the heck did "Lammas" arise from "Lughnasadh"? I've tried to learn to read and pronounce Gaelic, but it's TOUGH! It's something I'd like to learn.

SherryJackson said:

I chose "Sherry" because it was (and still is) one of my favourite Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons songs growing up. And "Jackson" because I'm a biiiiig MJ fan (18 years and counting). cool

My real name is Salma biggrin



And all this time I thought that was your real name. Sheeeerrryyy ba-a-by (Sherry baby) Sheerryy, won't you come out tonight?

Haha! Ren and Stimpy. Always loved that show. Like so many other cartoons, one that the kids love, but has many inside nudges that the kids will miss (thank goodness at times) and their parents can howl over!

Thanks!

I was. I used to rub honey on my lips, like lipstick, and kiss my folks (family, close friends)...It started from "Here comes honey..." giggle

Serious said:

I wanted something not Prince related. I am a fan of John McEnroe who is famous for his phrase "You cannot be serious!" and also named his autobiography "Serious!" So my ex-bf had the idea I should choose Serious as my org name and I immediately loved it.



That guy always cracked me up. Even in charity tourneys and things of the sort, he was generally still an insufferable a-hole.
