Accursed Doppelganger!

He's back!

I'm going to assume that "BF2" stands for something like "Battle Front 2" or "Battle Frontier 2," but seeing as I haven't owned a private computer on which to play video games since October 2005, this is OBVIOUSLY not me. Still, it irks me. Gotta get a new permanent name and fast. -.-;

You wouldn't believe how many people copy my username. Heck, even "mterek" got stolen from me before I could register a Gmail account.

Re: Accursed Doppelganger!

My new name is uniquely mine. In fact, when I got my AnimeBoston ID card, a man said I was a vicious monster for eating Koalas. So I assume that just like him, many may see this name and think I eat real Koalas, which pretty much puts me on the same level as a baby eater.

Yummy.

Re: Accursed Doppelganger!

Loki reminded me of this classic. Without fail, you'll always find at least one biology teacher who has this pasted on his door. And why? Because it's us biologists who best understand that while it's important to respect herbivores, saving every one of them is equivalent to murdering every last carnivore and obligate omnivore on the planet.

Re: Accursed Doppelganger!

"Talon" is such a unique handle I cannot believe that someone might put a series of numbers after it that might match your series of numbers.

Re: Accursed Doppelganger!

Shut up, Reed. :P Why would people think up a name like "Talon87", it seems so random.

Maybe I should name myself Hobin7001827. I'd like to see somebody else randomly come up with THAT name.

Re: Accursed Doppelganger!

If you're going to stick numbers behind your name to try and set yourself apart, try doing it with numbers that aren't likely to be someone's birth year. 20 year olds playing some FPS... who woulda thunk.

Now to go off and register Hobin7001827 on hotmail.

Re: Accursed Doppelganger!

If it makes you feel any better, my RebLaw name, which is derived from my real name, is the name of an organization, as well as not a nickname that is unique to myself (some guy on yahoo had it already before I tried to register it).

Re: Accursed Doppelganger!

I've googled my name and all I can find is....ME. I'm sure the name "big bad bertha" has been used quite a bit, but I'm the only one who took the time to misspell it. It's actually alot like my real name. It's a girl's name and it's spelled wrong ><

The other names I like to use (all 2000 partz, superfreddyjacksonman, and Tickle-me-Tidus) are probably more common.

Re: Accursed Doppelganger!

There are only three places where I couldn't be Jerichi, GMail, AIM, and some other thing which I forgot.

Srly, Jerichi, even though its a misspelling of Jirachi, isn't common at all.

Re: Accursed Doppelganger!

The easiest way around this is "The". Sure, you can't be the only "Talon87" but you could be the only 'The Talon87" which sounds much more dignified and official anyway.

Though the number of places I've been unable to get "Muyo" I can count on one hand, "THE Muyo" is still much cooler.
