We have a new girl here, called emily....
although that's not my real name, i've found myself answering to hers.. this is only her third day, and i think she must think i'm odd.

True. But by far the most cryptic user name on here has to be
Dave Whelan ...

wrong with being called Jeremy

Cool. I particularly like the 'And for that, we thank you Mr Whelan'. Couldn't be bothered reading the rest. Nice name, shame about the club.
There's also a pro golfer called Jeremy. Or is it FFS Whelan? Who knows?

oddly enough, on another messageboard i post on, someone has a username that's actually my real name. i'm kinda paranoid about letting people know my real name, so when someone posted a FAO thread to her i nearly freaked out

Be careful Emily: we had a "new girl" start a few weeks ago called Lesley. There was also another Lesley in the same department, who had been there about ooh, 7 years. Bizarrely, they also had the same model car too.
The "original" left last week following a wee bustup with her line manager. The "new, improved" one is still here.

in my last job, i sat next to a girl with the same name. her boyfriend has the same name as mr strange, and had the same car.
freaked, or what.
best buddies now. she's the medium version, i'm the small, and there is a tall one of same name, also best buds, who i used to work with and now works in same office as medium. we have been seen out together. someone once asked my what their names were, after a few pints.
if you followed that...
