Bulldrek v3.0

I show up here and immediately register as Bethyaga. Cuz that's who I am, dammit.

And then it occured to me that I have several other IDs that I will actually use on this board, and I better get them registered: Olibarro, Karen Schmidt, Tradejack. So I did.

Then I'm sitting around and I realize that I could be Mike Jones. Wouldn't that be cool? Sure, I may not ever use it, but it is my name, and it's not like I'm using up a name someone else on this board is likely to want... hell, sure, I'll register Mike Jones.

But then I went overboard. I can just be Mike. In all my years on the net, I've never been anywhere where the name Mike was available. This may be the only chance I get. So I registered it.

And now I regret it. I'll never post as Mike. I'll never use that ID. I wanted it just because I could have it, and now, a perfectly good name (that others would likely want) is taken out of circulation. What a waste.

And you'd think I'd learn, but no. Next thing I do is go out and register myself as Jeff Hauze. I mean, I know Jeff had kind of a claim to it or something back at v0.2, but this is a fresh start full of new opportunities. Why can't I be Jeff Hauze for a while? I may not actually use it, but it'll be nice to have the option there. I mean, if the name was really that important to him, he would have stayed on as Admin so he could get in here early and lay claim to whatever he wanted, right? Obviously, he had other priorities.

I'm thinking the next names I want are Brother Justice, Earl Hollar, and Caz & Thorn (all one name, so I can pretend to be both of them at once).

Alternately, Caz & Thorn can be changed to the more cutesy Caz n Thorn if ampersands are not acceptable in user names.

Wow...I'm glad I got my name before Bethy took it...

I'll get you yet, my pretty.

And your little dog too.

I have a dog?!

At least I only took my favorite ones...MIKE, sheesh, I mean, what if my Dad wanted to log on to Bulldrek...hrm? What would he use? Of course I don't want him logging onto bulldrek...so, THANK YOU!

*wuffles the Old Man*

My name is Mike. :cry

Gawd, I'm sorry already. I feel really really bad about my ill-considered excesses.

If you'd like the name Mike, I'll give it to you. Really.

Just make the horrible guilt stop!

If we did that, Bethy, would we really be Bulldrekkers? Well, maybe...

Damn, I should hop to and get Exeter, Sarn and maybe even Gamemaster...

*Cazmonster nicks off after nicks.*

Come back soon! *waves*

Fuck! I could have had Gamemaster.

Dammit! Is God still open?

How about Love? I wanna be Love.

I want to be fate, can I swipe Fate. Or HOPE!

Oooh, are nicks going to be case sensitive? Could I have eliahad too?

Ah, the unforeseen consequences of freedom.

Wow. And here I thought this thread was going to be Bethie scolding us all for the big landgrab on nicks.

And I was all ready to feel guilty for having taken the Ungamunga Troll Brigade. (Hey, I'm their wrangler!)

Caz&Thorn as a nick? Y'all are some sick fuckers. Can you imagine that? Me getting all Auntie Thorn on someone while Caz rips their arms off. I can just see it:

T: Well, you know, if your girlfriend is really that important to you, maybe you should put down the video game controller for a bit and ask what /she'd/ like to do. It won't kill you to do it, and I bet it would mean an awful lot to her.

C: Or, I could just noogie you until you skull caves in, and then make polenta out of your gray matter!!

Mmmmmmm, polenta, oh, you were saying something?

Already done my name-grupping.

(yes, I know about name-grubbing, but grupping looks much better)

It's okay, I tend to pe lysbexic in that area as well.

Cazmonster goes out for some Italian comfort food.

Mmmmm Polenta

It's Italian comfort food. Der.

And it comes out of people's innards.

Eli, I looooooove your sig!

Can we make a T-shirt out of it?

SURE!

Pretty!

Damn right it's pretty, Control worked its ass off for this.

Yay! The Elf hath returned to the promised land. Got all the monkey names I damn well need.

This posting box damn well rules! It has all the smilies :asleep right there for easy access!

This rules!

So anyone wanna place a bet on how long it's gonna take CE to come off the Smiley High he's about to go on?

About to? About to? I'M ALREADY THERE, BITCH! OUT OF MY MONKEY WAY!



AHhhhhh HA HA HA! :rolling

Somehow, I'm perversely pleased that the Elf is so monkey happy. :cool

Crazy, don't make us call Dr. Kaufman to give you the shock treatments again.

He's no match for my smilie greatness , fear me ! Fear me forever!

Monkeys rock!

Can't have mine!!! 'course, you probably didn't want it anyway....

Ye gods, we could screw over so many people.

take their nick and ask them how much it's worth to them

Oh. So many smilies. It's like, temptation, seeing them right *there* as you're making your post. This one's cute. Definitely.

You know, this is really pretty lame when it comes to 'memorable first posts'.

It's 2022, the Bulldrek.com Reunion. A creaky and grey 32 mounts the podium... quiet, peanut gallery... and coughs into the microphone. "And now, the award for dullest and most unmemorable first post on bulldrek.com goes to... uh..." he squints at the piece of paper "...Jestyr. Whoever that was."

Ah, come on, that just isn't true. You'll always be remembered as the...uh...what the hell was that title, anyway? No, wait...I must be thinking of someone else. Eh...
*shrugs, then walks off humming a jaunty tune*

what jes? you posted?

splode just doesn't quite work for me. I need a disembowelment smiley.

...no, no reason. Why do you ask?

No...wait...are you...disembowelment...who...what!?...ug...
:plode

No...wait...are you...disembowelment...who...what!?...ug...

No, I'm not disembowelment. You must have me confused with somebody else.

("No, I'm Chaos, /he's/ Mayhem. What are we, a double act?")

you aren't disembowlment? damn...

has anyone seen 'evisceration' around here anywhere?

Aaaaaaaahhhh! Jestyr, your sig, it's shrinking!

Honey, I shrunk my sig!

Hmm. It's unreadably teenytiny now. I think I need to tinker.

lol, the magnifying glass in my desk doesn't help if the resolution doesn't allow the letters to come through clearly

See all those elitist comments about screen font smoothing.

No one wanted Serious Paul. I really should nab Paul, but I am too lazy.
