:hi:

[NMDemDist2]

2. i think that's so cute you two

I just saw that in the Lounge

:hi:

[Rhythm]

5. It was Lyric's idea, but i thought it was cute...

I was ready to ditch my birth-year from my username anyway, so something brand new was in order.

[Zuiderelle]

15. I like both names!

I'm surprised they were both available. very cute.

[Rhythm]

20. I was surprised as well...

Generally, the bigger a site gets, the harder it is to find simple usernames without having to add numerals or using *ahem* creative spellings.

3. I give up. i will never remember all you people and your name

changes. :cry:

[Rhythm]

4. That's why i started this thread, Jonny...

It takes forever for a thread to get off of the front page in here, so it can be a reference for a bit until we all get used to the changes!

:hi:

[mitchtv]

I will get to know a lot of new (to me) posters

[davidinalameda]

8. I changed my name

[Manifestor_of_Light]

9. yes,

I used to be Perragrande which is big female dog in Spanish. Not real flattering.

[Vanje]

10. The poster formerly known as Sheeptramp

is Vanje now

[TechBear_Seattle]

11. This is the DU member still known as Trouble

I tried to make that my sig, but I could not get the font tag to work right.

[The Brethren]

13. Nah, I'll pass on choosing a new one.

I like the username I already have....except I think a lot of posters probably assume I'm a male because of it. Btw, my username is a title of novel I like a lot.

And I'm not so sure how happy I am about the username amnesty for posters -- I'm having A time as is trying to keep up with all the old monikers. LOL

14. Heya.

I was AspieGrrl, but my new screen name is much cooler.

[Sub Atomic]

17. I figured 'Nuclear Gay' would be considered disruptive.

:hi:

[Rhythm]

21. Much better!

'Cause you're definitely NOT a 'dweeb'... or at least not anymore. *L*

[Sub Atomic]

24. I am actually very proud of the nickname 'dweeb'

It was given to me when I was attending Naval Nuclear Power School in Orlando, FL back in 1983.

I paid close attention in class every single day, but I never cracked a book outside of school. So many of my classmates flunked out, even after studying every single spare waking moment.

People started calling me 'dweeb' because I never had to study and I almost aced every single test. I wore it as a badge of honor against those who were angry at me because I'm smart.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

18. lionesspriyanka to La Lioness Priyanka

[Rhythm]

22. And 90% of us will STILL just call you "Pri"
