I was wondering (as I ask many people in games)...What's With Your Name? Some are easy (442, ... I can't think oif anyone else's😕) but others are a real mystery, like Phlabibit.
And I though I might direct you all to this site... www.avp-movie.com
The Hitch Hikers Guide is a must read... I should read them again, it's been a good 10 years or more since I have.
My name?
A long time ago I was hanging with some friends one evening drinking. In the middle of a word I burped... and it sounded like "Phlabibit".
A friend of mine started calling me Phlabibit, and it stuck.
No one calls me Phlabibit anymore, but the screen name lives on.
😉
Edit! I'll go check out www.avp-movie.com when I get out of work... Taking care of my father's Dog and he's got Hi-Speed Internet.... (My Father, not the Dog)
THE ONE AND ONLY IS BACK momentarily, cause I have to get on with studying for the end-of-year exams :'(
D43M0N actually means Daemon in hacker-speak. Hacker-speak is replacing o's with 0, A with 4, E with 3. I don't know why I chose it, but even some freinds call me that now, except they say: DeeFourtyThreeEmZeroEn. Sounds wierd, but that's how I say it.
First, I agree with Phlabibit - The Hichicker's Guide is essential reading. I originally read it probably a decade ago on a friend's suggestion; it was the only time I've read a book that size (the first part) literally on one sitting. (I might have gone to the bathroom at some point though. 🙂 ). I just couldn't put it down.
Secondly, Phlabibit, I'm envious of your burps, mine aren't half that creative! 😉
Thirdly, my own handle "Pyrrho" comes after the greek philosopher who opposed the dogmatists, and founded the shool of thought of scepticism. I don't agree with his every conclusion, but I am a sceptic, and have been known to oppose dogmatism (it's kind of my pet peeve).
[EDIT:] I have yet to create my own school of thought though. 😛

Originally posted by ncrosbyLOL! Actually, just after I'd joined with that handle, it did occur to me that people might be intimidated by the prospect of having their house mysteriously burn down after a crushing victory over the virtual board against someone named "Pyrrho". 🙄 Was too late to do anything about it then, so I thought what the heck, whatever works... 😉
And all along I thought you just liked fire! 😉
Worry not though, I don't play with fire! 🙂
