Well, simple as. You have to guess why the Spoofer above you has that username, avatar, signature or whatever.

EXAMPLE:

ALICE1967

is above

BOB01

Your name is Alice, and you were born in 1967.

It has to be an amusing or clever link. It doesn't necsarily have to be a full-depth psychological analysis.

You can tell the real reason why you chose it of course.

The monkey symbolises the true inner being of Birbee. His signature means he likes a good poem.

I guess that why my username/avatar/signature is what it is is that it is because I have choosed it. That is it what it is.

If it were yours that I were called upon so to guess the spoken weight thereof, then I shouldst answering hence:

  • it is down to on account of your being "board" of advertising
  • you like the musics for youngsters
  • you have of been clever with an apt portmanteau word for a nickname


When I was at school they always called me by my nickname.

Oh did they? And what was that then?

Nick.

Well, EQ, your name is possibly taken out of a book? It sounds like a character out of a novel/la.

Peter Quint out of Turn of the Screw

Erskine Mockpudding was a character invented by the great Beachcomber.

I dropped the 'e' off Erskine though.

But I'm free to do that.

Damn, I'm good. I just got my name off a poster I saw on holiday in Bangladesh. I also Googled 'ironic billboard' and that's what I found. And I do like my post-90s alternative rock and hardcore.

Nice one Inhopeless.

Birbee, I wish I DID live in a comfortable bubble. If you FIND one, send it to me.

Every day's a struggle, just like that of other writers here

My onsite name is the very first name I thought of when I signed up.

I got sick of Smurfette comments so changed the avatar to me playing for Man. U. Aah! Those were the days.....also....sometimes I 'nip' on site during school 'breaks' with kids in the room....during 'snack times' and I found that Smurfette was just TOO MUCH for those 9 yr. old boys' eyes.
I got tired of pushing them back into their heads. LOL

Why?

Who cares?

All seems a bit pointless to me.

Your avatar skoob shows someone keeping a low profile or perhaps the missus just hit you over the head and shortened your neck.

Definitely hen-pecked.

Or perhaps it's what comes of carrying books backwards on your head



.....and Erskin is that picture by Tinguely?

I don't keep chickens.

Apart from the ones in the freezer.

And they don't peck because they've been decapitumated.

Smart arse.

Ah Kandinsky! I could claim him as my artistic inspiration for my Art coursework, but I've no time left.

Don't get carried away. You're not that good. Half of my name is from a novella but not the other half.
