[CrispyQ]

starting after the inauguration.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x4833201

So who's going to change? ;)

I'm going to modify my current name & just be CrispyQ.

[jillan]

1. I just pm'd 48 with that link.

I have no need to change.
I guess I could change my name to piranha to shut up some people around here - but - no way.
Pirhana has meaning to me...so I will continue to stand up to my critics ;)

[PatSeg]

2. And that wouldn't be nearly as much fun

[Jennicut]

3. Oh, keep it Pirhana, didn't someone give it you as a nickname?

If its special, keep it.:) I am keeping mine, my name plus my state. I can't think of anything else good anyways!

[jillan]

13. You don't think I should change it to Bidenstalker?

[Jennicut]

22. LOL. That is it, I am changing mine to IluvJoe

[Muttocracy]

4. I'm going to change mine but no idea to what - might just shorten it. nt

[CrispyQ]

5. JoeIs

:rofl:

[Muttocracy]

6. Hey... like that... Joe Is Right, Joe Is Funny... all purpose

[Debi]

7. JoeIsVP?

:shrug:

[Jennicut]

24. I like that one.

[Debi]

8. I wonder what 48 will change her name to...

:shrug:

I thought about it but Mr. Debi might have a beef w/ILOVEHUNTERBIDEN as my name :loveya:

[PatSeg]

10. Maybe you should just stick with Debi

No point in pushing your luck!

[Debi]

29. And having him renew that restraining order

:P

[PatSeg]

33. And that too

[jillan]

15. I think she should do something in German. Or maybe

jetsetter.

For you - I think you should change it to
Hunterwoman.

[CrispyQ]

20. Hunterwoman!

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

I love it!!

[Jennicut]

26. Hunter'sLover

[Debi]

31. There'd have to be some fact attched to that

and him kissing my cheek two times I don't think qualifies....Hunter's Stalker has a more truthful ring to it! :loveya:

[Debi]

30. OMG!!

:rofl:

[Eurobabe]

21. I might go with something non-political

but I have to admit CupcakeLover is making me laugh. :rofl:

[Jennicut]

25. I love that!

[Debi]

32. That's good!

:thumbsup:

[livvy]

9. No change here.

I used the nickname Livvy before I came here. It's a play off my last name, so it works for a lifetime. Since coming here, I've used it more often. There's a couple people at work that call me that. I think I think of myself more as livvy than I do my real name, which I've never really liked!

[PatSeg]

11. Mine is just boring but easy to remember

It was over ten years ago that it was my ID at a company I worked for and I've used it for many things since then.

I like Livvy. Its cool and I haven't run into anyone else with that name.

[jillan]

12. Not boring at all! It's very creative.

[PatSeg]

16. Not really

It was an assigned ID. If there were any others with the same letters, they would be 02, 03, etc. That happened to people with common names like Bob Smith.

[livvy]

17. Thanks!

I like yours, too. I pronounce it in my head like tazegate. I think the first couple of times I saw it, I misread the letters and then added a few of my own. Anyway, by the time I really looked at the letters, it was too late, so tazegate you are in Livvy's deranged world. :silly:

[PatSeg]

19. That's cool

I like Tazegate. It sounds like it has some dramatic story behind it.

[Jennicut]

23. I really like yours! Whenver I see your name I go its Zsegat!

[PatSeg]

28. How funny!

[CrispyQ]

36. I always pronounce your screen name "Tess Gate"

That's not even close, is it?! ;) But it kind of goes with Gately & the our whole JBSG association.

[PatSeg]

37. It is really funny

how differently people see these names. I would have never thought of "Tess Gate", but that is really cute.

When I see your's, I think of doughnuts and Krispy Kreme.

[Muttocracy]

40. I always think Seagate and picture the ocean :)

[PatSeg]

41. I like that!

Much better than what I see.

[Muttocracy]

42. yeah, I guess Sacramento's not quite on the coast :)

[PatSeg]

43. Only in my mind!

[jillan]

14. I always wondered where you came up with Livvy -

You guys are so creative.

[livvy]

18. Yup, it's a nickname for my last name...

I sign most of my notes to the kids in my class, (and their parents, too) Mrs. Liv, and when I write a note to the office, I sign it Livvy. It makes it easy for people from here, too, when we've had meet-ups. They don't have to remember another name.
Got it on my license plate, but had to add another letter. Someone else had already "stolen" it. LOL I thought about using DU LIVVY on my plate, but had second thoughts, after I realized most people would read it "do Livvy"...not good, not good at all. :rofl: Not exactly the kind of attention I had in mind.

[Jennicut]

27. I'm keeping mine too.

Jenni is for Jennifer and cut is for Connecticut. I can't change it now, I am too loyal to my state (lived all 33 years of my life here) and I am in the Jenn Brigade with the other Jenns here (Jenmito, JenniferZ, VolcanoJen).

[PatSeg]

34. Yours is perfect

and timeless.

[livvy]

38. I like yours. It's easy to remember and catchy.

Pretty clever idea, too!

[AspenRose]

35. I think I want to change mine too

Something shorter, apolitical, poetic, having to do with the west. Because that's where my heart is.

Any ideas?

[WheelWalker]

39. I considered

A. Hominid, but have decided that is presumptuous for The Village Idiot. It's yours if you want it. Blessings.

[Tashca]

44. A. Hominid???

Now that could be confused with the current outgoing President....I think I would be careful with that name.

How was your trip to N.D.???.....did you find out what real cold was like??

After looking at the link you provided I remember I am aware of cow candy. I've seen the stuff, but don't know much about it.

I would like to change my name to Jericho...I've used that name since about 97 on various sites. I even signed up here a few years ago and then promptly lost my password....also moved and changed email...so I suppose I can never use that name here.....although I have never really asked.

[WheelWalker]

46. We didn't bring back a wheelbarrow full of $, but

it went well for our team. Not so good for the opposition. We'll be working with the bank, it looks like, to take back the technology...maybe even the whole plant. Yes, I know real cold now. Thursday night, after our flight out of Fargo was finally canceled, and taking the shuttle back to the hotel, we walked a block for dinner. Minus thirty-seven with an 8 mph wind. Remember how meat is when it's starting to freeze, but not yet solid? That was my face after one block. Mother of Buddha. A person could die in that shit, REAL fast. Got back home around 1730 last night. I'm still sleeping as much as I can to catch up. A week of 0500 to midnight, and eating out (not a good place for a vegetarian, Fargo isn't)is no good for someone turning 60. But, I'm a soldier, and do what has to be done 'till I fall. Like the walls. Of Jericho.

Peace.

[jillan]

45. I love your name.

That was one of the first things I liked about you.
It's very poetic.

[AspenRose]

47. Maybe I'll keep it, then

I just really, Really, REALLY miss the mountain west. :-(

[jillan]

48. Oh - change it if you want to.

My mom's name was Rose, so when I saw your name it made me smile.
Along with the creativity of it.

Just make sure you let us know if you change it, so we can keep in touch :)

[PatSeg]

49. I wouldn't worry about keeping in touch

We can find her at any thread where people are droolin' over Joe! Or we can just post a hunk photo of Joe as bait.

[AspenRose]

50. Oh you're bad

:spank:

Although these days I am more at Facebook....and Lent is coming up, so I won't be around then.

[PatSeg]

51. I know

But its SO easy!

So you give up Facebook or DU for Lent? Or just the Internet in general?

[AspenRose]

52. Just DU

I notice it's much more peaceful at home when I do :-)

Do y'all like "Chamisa?" What do you think?

[PatSeg]

53. Oh, I like that name

I had to look it up though. Its very similar to a plant I have growing in my front yard.

[nyc 4 Biden]

54. Mine will stay the same.

Although it does make it hard to defend Joe sometimes because I feel people will just dismiss me as a crazed Bidenite. On the bright side, these days there doesn't seem to be that many situations where Joe is being bashed in GDP and there is never a lack of defenders thanks to everyone in JBSG.

[PatSeg]

55. Hi there

Yes, Joe is really viewed very positively at DU these days and it is very satisfying after all the months of defending him. Evidently it was only a small handful of Biden haters, but it sure seemed like the whole world at the time.

You are right, there are plenty of us to defend him again if it becomes necessary.
