I couldn't help but to stop by and ask... Do you happen to be a They Might Be Giants fan? 
That, at least for me, explains your name. 
Welcome to H2G2, btw! I hope you're finding everything alright - if you ever need any help or have any questions just let us know.
Best of luck!

Let's clear this up, we are no longer referring to "rabid child." We have moved on to "chess piece face." Some lyrics exist in one song that are absent in another as is the phenomenon with most individual songs, but there is the recurring term "chess piece face."
Does anyone know the origin of the name "chess piece face?"
If not then I think I shall have to write another entry explaining the whole thing in detail.

my, but i have missed much in these minutes i have not been watching. of course, that could be because there were a good many of those minutes. i know where the name comes from, well, there's kinda two places. one comes from a nickname of a guy the johns used to work with, and the other (but this one isn't so much an origin as an odd connection, i think) is from rene magritte, who painted people with chess pieces for heads. you can, of course find all this on tmbg.org like i did, so that later on you can tell it to people and they'll see it as nifty and think you're all smart. if this differs form the origin that you were going to shine upon us duluth, please feel free to write the entry. as for what's going to happen to me, well, i don't know either, at least not at the moment.

Curses! You've foiled my evil scheme by invalidating any significant contribution I could have made to this discussion. You win this round Chess Piece Face, but I'll get you next time, and when that next time becomes this time, then you won't have any way to not become dead!

Mwahahahaha, that's right, I've foiled your scheme. There just ain't enough giants references for the two of us, we'll have to make some up. could probably do it too, i mean, look you're a prof. and i'm a dr., there's gotta be enough brains between the two of us. anyway, back to telling you how foiled you are, and laughing maniacally...
You are so foiled that you should be on pee-wee's playhouse as a part of the foil ball. Oh man, are you foiled. Mwahahahahahahahahaha. Mwahahahahahahahaha. and again... mwahahahahahaha.
Lovingly,
