Explain your name

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Basically I'm a f u c kwit. I have a few real life friends on here and chose not to use my real name as when I first joined I thought it would be a laugh to pretend it wasn't me. It quite clearly is though. I use my real name (not necessarily the one I was born with...) on most forums, or occasionally my other alter ego of Blackout (because I do... ask Debaser... it's also a British Sea Power song but so are lots of other things and none of them quite as appropriate... thud!)
You ain't seen me, right?

Moonchild - one of my favourite songs from Fields of the Nephilim

my best friend and i were having a pseudo philosophical conversation (a tad drunk) about people who were just so utterly cool they transcended our idea of people. she said something along the lines of that i was like her 'floating puzzle piece': didn't fit in the world, because i was part of a better puzzle. Nicest compliment ever, so it stuck

The origin of my username is lame, lol.

Dee is short for my real name, Deirdre. '902' is my birthday, September 2.

That's it. :roll:

tricky one this, how to explain my name...............hmmmmm.

My parents gave it me, so I can't explain it.

I could go for some deep acronym like:

D - Drunk
A - Annoying
V - Vestan Pants
E - Endlessly drones on about the same thing time, after time....

R - Arr, that about sums it up fella!

Or just STFU and bugger off bak up me own yard....okay...will do.....
M . I . A .

Ok, this is possibly boring. My house backs onto a river, I love rivers, rivers flood and I used to have re-occuring dreams of floods which link into Sisters lyrics so there we go.
Also I like to use different names on different boards. Security you know! :lol:

On the subject of 'Debaser' I have a truly wonderful DVD of a whole gig from France, professionally filmed, with a bit of 'Move' and 'T In The Park' thrown in for good measure. Just ask Mr Blast. You around for the November Heartland 'do' at all?

I know the movie :wink: I have to say I like it.

My name.. yeah, do I have to explain? Well I am a huge fan of David Lynch. And when chosing my first email adress and names I tried Lynchfan but that was taken. And as far as I know, Im the only one with this nick on the net ;) I ended up with the email mortaldance though. A mix of the band names Dead Can Dance and This Mortal Coil, alittle side information for ya..

I could have used my real name though, but stuck with the same old.. (real name is Marianne btw, like most of you allready know)

The '_w_0000' was previously there simply for the fact that in the event of another ryan on the board, i wouldnt have to

A) type another username in, therfore wasting valueable post time

b) think of a better username.

Then, a year later, i realised that there was no ryans and QB changed my name. Shortly after, SG would confuse me with Rian.

MrChris

Well, this is simple and uninteresting. My name is Chris (well, Christopher really, but only when I'm bad). Chris is an androgynous name, and I thought if I added Mister, any potential online gender confusion would be sorted out.

A friend of mine sometimes calls me Mister Chris, I don't know why but it's kind of sweet. Also, being MrChris adds an opaque Sisters reference - M(erciful) r(elease) Chris. I know, it's very opaque, isn't it?

Just like jokes and Sisters lyrics, it's sometimes less interesting when it's been explained...
Chris

The Green Lantern is a comic book superhero. He's cool because he got his powers from a crashlanded ufo.

Plus, in Sweden, as it is, you can't buy alcohol at a convenience store or supermarket, you have to go to the Systembolaget. There you have to wait in line and ask politely for a bottle of your liking. Their signs are all green and they shine through the fog of Old Town in Stockholm on a damp winters afternoon like a green lantern, a guiding light.

By the way, the green lantern on a boat is on the starboard side.

I guess it was the "Hot metal and methedrine" bit
Nah, on second thoughts it was definitely "Lucretia, my reflection, dance the ghost with me" ...
Oh wtf, it just stuck, okay?

Everyone I know actually refers to me as Mrs J (as in Jourgensen) but that name was already taken on the old Ministry p*ss Army DST Forum by Al's wife herself... so Lucretia was my second choice.
But then when the DST Forum went South, I was reborn as Lucretia Resurrected on the new p*ss Army board.
Lucretia The Tird hangs around the PissTake Forum a lot (because it's her Third outing on the 'Net as Lucretia and because she can be a bit of a T U R D)

Real complicated, hey :roll:

Ok, I admit it, I love the film!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I loved Jennifer Connelly (Sarah) in it too till I found out a few weeks ago she was actually 14 when it was filmed.

Drowning in a bog is my biggest phobia, worse if it's a particularly smelly one. Not so bad if Jennifer Connelly was there though. :D
