Lol...saying zoobyshoe tickles my tongue :-p .its a nice name

We'll all wear'em jen... y not?
 
What about "Rathma"? He did take over the world you know. :approve:
Maybe I'll have to follow in my namesake's footsteps... THEN you'll vote for me...BUWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! :devil:




PS: Is there a "best maniacal laugh award"? That I would win. :biggrin:






Chaos. Disorder. Widespread panic. My work is done here.

I would like to second that nomination. I would definitely vote for
zoobyshoe as the best username in recent memory

if anyone ever declares a signature-line contest then holly's original one should be in the running
when she first appeared at PF she had a sig that said something like

"If I have seen less than other people it's because some giant's
shoulder was always in the way."

Personally I think Zero's avatar is unforgettable, I couldn't get through the first month since I saw it without thinking about it everyday. I have always wondered what that guy wacked in the head is in defiance of. Zero's signature though is funny, for if he rules, wouldn't that make him a "ruler" :-p .

you all are forgeting one thing here: Trogdor the Burninator rules!
That's all I have to say about that
 
  • #13
I will also cast my vote for Zoobyshoe.

My cat seems to like it... We named her Zoobie after Zooby. :biggrin:

I, of course, am a bit partial to 'Ivan Seeking'.
 
  • #16
This might be considered a little vain for a first post but I nominate myself.

I know I don't have as much name "cred' as some of the more active users...

But that's what I'm trying to get.

I vote tribdog. I think there is a vaguely amusing story behind the name, and me n trib have to stick together!

I vote for Ivan Seeking. Of course, zoobyshoe comes in a close second for me.

While zoobyshoe does sound cool, hypnagogue sounds better. IMO hypnagogue has those alternating stressed/unstressed syllables that just rolls off the tongue.
 
  • #22
After the nominations are closed will someone pots a poll for the voting? Is that how it's done? I have been told that there are several different PF Awards given each year.

I throw my hat in for Trogdor. zoobyshoe is a cool handle, but I don't see him burninating any peasants.
Zoobies do not burninate anything. Our brush shelters are too flammable.

It must have taken a lot of imagination to figure out where to put the underscore! :smile:

Well, I guess there is THAT! :biggrin: AND that 'all-lower-case-letters' look... I can't get enough of that! OK, russ_watters! In MY book, you just got a 'point'! :wink: :smile: :smile:

Sorry, Chopnik. Can't do it. You are not the most useless member. You keep me and your PF mom highly entertained. I don't think you can count on her vote either. (Of course, if the prize is BIG and there is prize-sharing and chocolate involved... who's to say... :wink: )

Give us a run-down of those prizes, Evo!

ShawnD man... what a name!

Or Loren Booda... for that awesome Rene Magritte avatar. :) I hear the wind man.

New Rule: best name has to be original
 
  • #37
what qualifies as original then
 
  • #38
i think my name is quite original... no-one else is called jimmy p on PF

Only if your name is not Russ Watters.

Well, using a character's name, such as Trogdor, is not original. If you are just using your real name, that is not original, since your parents came up with it (plus, you don't get any style points). Having part of your name is acceptable if it's incorporated into something clever.

Glad I could dictate the rules.
 
  • #41
hmmm i think that it is still unfair, no-one else uses my name therefore I'm original.

(and i don't care about minor details like "They Cant")
 
  • #42
Hey, Chopnik is pretty original. Can I change my vote to Chopnik?
 
  • #43
woot! a vote, you ARE the greatest PF mom! Look below!

It's not though. 'Chopnik' is a character in a TV series, that used to be a comic book series.
And Dissident Dan, when were you declared 'Rule Dictator'? I see no occupation of the like anywhere. Characters, if in obscure books that no one but me has read in 60 years, are perfectly acceptable. (I stripped you of your self-appointed rank! I have a strange sense of power... :devil: ) A vote for Rathma is a vote for your collective jugulars staying where they are!

  • #45
you don't scare us! we're mean and tough! and besides, my heart doesn't beat so ripping out my jugular would only serve as a minor inconvience when it comes to socialising.

Whoa! What? What TV series? When? What comic book series?

And sorry, Dissident Dan. I have to agree with mean, rotten, nasty Rathma. Only the person who started the thread can make the rules. :biggrin: And the thread is called BEST Username Award - NOT Most Original.

And, so as not to show any favoritism...

Rathma - GET REAL, you whacko! :biggrin: :smile: :biggrin: :smile:

I did a search and there is no chopnik character. :devil:

Who would've thought rathma was capable of such evil?? :surprise:

HA! BUSTED! Rathma, you're GROUNDED! GO TO YOUR ROOM! :biggrin: (hmmm... I don't know... this 'mom' thingy is sort of fun... :biggrin: )

See, my screenname explains all you need to know about me. Like U-235, I'm inherently unstable, and if you get enough of me in concentration, you get disastrous results.
