h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

You can still join and screw the system, Possum. I'll just have to put you as Possum and leave the rest off. I hope it doesn't damage your sense of identity.

That's okay. My sense of identity is strong-ish.

And I started out on the H2G2 as "Adolescent white american male who likes 47". That got shortened to YK-47. I eventually lopped off the -47, and replaced it with ", Jedi Padawan" or the like, and after I made a Big Personal Sacrifice, By Which I Mean Having To Make The Choice As To Whether Or Not A Good Friend Lives, I got rid of that and put "The Not Quite So Great Jedi Knight " at the beginning. That was bad for image so I dropped "Not Quite So Great".

I remember you being referred to as "AK 47".....but we won't go into that!!!LOL

If anyone can keep up with the "Nick" changes around here, they are doing better than me!!!!

NM

The "Nick" changes?

"Nickname". I swear everyone here has changed theirs at least once since they got here. "Ek".....some Researchers change 'em every few days!LOL

NM

Yeh.

RSBohn hasn't... and neither has Baron. Or Garibaldi. I think that's all. At least no one has deviated from their original screename enough to be indistinguishable on lists such as the ARSE one... at least, I hope not... Haven't really checked.

I think I'm about due for another name change, I just have to think of one.

Dr. D

Howabout just "Zonker"?

And could somebody get rid of that damn -47 on my name in the list?

Muhwawhawhwa!

Too plain.

Dr. D

Howabout a Star Wars name? "Zonker also known as:"

Take the first three letters of your first name and add the first two letters of your last name. For your last name, take the first two letters of your mother's maiden name and add the first three letters of the city you were born in.

YK.......as long as you keep just that much in there, I'll know who you are!

NM

Not me, Zonker!

Micwi Sasan? That aint too bad, YK...

It's forums like this one which make me glad to have an ASL connection! Cuz, like, it'd take me a million years to download this page with a modem! Even 56K! And speaking of numbers and the letter "K":

"MONSTERS FROM THE ID! MONSTERS FROM THE ID!"

"Klattu! Barada! Nicto!"

HEY! YK's giving out COOKIES! YAY!

"Shop smart! Shop S-MART! YOU GOT THAT?"

All of these quotes, of course, are to probe YK's knowledge of science fiction films beyond Star-Wars. He get's points for naming the movies they're from- and until he gives up, no-one else can tell him what they are about!

*takes out body-paint*

HEY! Fenny! Let's paint each other's nekkid bodies up like HEATHENS! It's fun bein' HEATHEN! ;o)

EVERYBODY SING:

"We don't got to wear clothes!
'Cuz we're HEATHEN to the bone!"

Who's heard about that German psychologist who was arrested for taking his daily jogs in the park au naturale? hehehe.

I guess he's a HEATHEN too!

YEAH! I got the computer WORKING the way I want to now! NO I DON'T have ANY Micro$oft products running on my box! YEAH! Just good old FREE linux! And FREE X-windows! And FREE toys to do all my stuff with! Whoo-hoo! I love it!

So, I wonder how many bytes I've added to this conversation with all these ramblings? Hmmm... You have to consider a CHAR byte value is equal to 2 bytes, I think... so it's 2 bytes for each letter...

Goodnight, sweet prince! :o)

Well hello there Baron! Long time no see!

Got your "console" up and running I take it!

NM

That Klaatu bit is from "The Day the Earth Stood Still," I believe. The others I'm not sure about.

And anyone who actually wants to go anywhere in the nude should go to: http://www.h2g2.com/forumframe.cgi?forum=16034&thread=43314 which is the latest naughtybits forum.

Well, at least it wasn't the Day the World Went Away.

But WAIT! Let me finish painting my TOENAILS first! Can I paint yours? It's not pink or anything, I promise!

Well, my computer's still loadin'g the sucker up... it won't load anything else (like the other frames), but THIS is all that's important!
