I used to like reading Georgette Heyer  , as that list of slang showed, she could be quite risquÃÃâ€*’©, but sound relatively innocent - many phrases having several depths of meaning (and you know how I like any play on words ).
But I always knew you had a touch of class, Incog

Re: Nicknames.
So It's only me who wonders why some people pick such odd nicknames.I understand most of the choices usually.Homealone is pretty obvious after all..and all those combinations of Paul...but some really are puzzling..

Re: Nicknames.
Mine was given to me by my mates mrs after sleeping on his couch (when I had much longer hair btw) and she saw my hair first thing in the morning...
The nickname 'Tuftus' just stuck from that point on....

im sure we had a thread about this before......anyway back in my infant days of broadband i became a avid user of IRC which ofcourse requires a nick, i obviously found that i could not just use a default guest nick, so i was watching tv and daydreaming to find a nickname to use online......voila kronas was born!

Re: Nicknames.
Raistlin was a character from a series of books I used to read when I was younger.
We share a lot of character traits.....

Re: Nicknames.
I don't think I need to mention what dilligaf is again.
It is how I used to try (note the TRY) and view life. Of course I try harder to care more now
