What's the deal with your nickname? How did you get it? If your nickname is self-explanatory, then tell everyone when you first started using the internet, and what was the first thing that made you say "wow, this isn't just a place for freaks after all?" Was it a website? Was it an email from a long-lost friend? Go on, spill it.
Hi! I help moderate Metafilter!
Here's me and a pony.
Check out, if you have not, the
Metafilter Compilation Album. It's a genuinely great collection of recordings by Metafilter users. Profits go to music-education charity, and the project is in the black now so your order is pretty much pure altruism. I'd compel you to think of the children, but the disc is good enough that you'd be okay ordering it even if our charity was funding puppy strangling.
So go
order a copy, dammit.
