So, gentlemen, has anyone mentioned that your chosen screen name can be quite informative? Perhaps more so than anything else you may state?
"Bigboy9" "saltimbocca", readyfreddy" etc etc etc.......Really?

I had someone comment that my screen name meant I was a recovering alcoholic or drink all the time, ha-ha! My screen name is a cartoon show about a mad scientist that once turned himself into a pickle.

Apart from Moosepucky, there don't seem to be many men sticking their necks out on this post ?

I was hoping to hear from "saltimbocca", he is on here....hoping he is using the name of the famous veal preparation, not the literal translation..........

@AnneWimsey Real translations can be very funny. I do not know if you do it in the US, but in the UK we use the French phrase 'Cul de Sack' to mean a road with no exit. It even apprears on officail road signs. The French think that it is wildly funny when they see it. (I am not going to explain it, anyone who wants to know will have to google it.)

@Fernapple we also use that in the states but it is "sac"

@mooredolezal Sorry, yes same here, spelt in haste.

I think mine is ok. Career and year of birth.

Honestly, I avoid people with those kinds of names.....one track mind perhaps?

The stereotype of men being direct and blunt might be "slightly" reinforced, eh?

Go on what does mine tell you ?

@Fernapple:

Makes me think of fiddleheads which are a delicious delicacy in early spring in New Hampshire.

You did ask after all 😊

@moosepucky That is very good. The meaning is very criptic but you are very close. Well done.

@moosepucky I didn’t know you can eat ferns, that’s very interesting, thanks.

Aren't fernapples (little berries some female ferns bear(?) Poisonous?

@AnneWimsey No I am sorry to say that ferns do not carry apples, though some do make bulbils on the fronds. In fact ferns do not have sexual reproduction at all, but produce asexual spores from the little blisters, (which you may also be what you call apples) under their fronds. Sexual reproduction takes place on the ground by a separate microscopic stage called a prothalus. Therefore since I grow ferns, and had the problem because I am in business of finding a nom de plume, I thought of something which could never exist, to use for a name which does not exist. Sorry if that is a bit complex but I thought of it quickly.

@Fernapple I am impressed by your "fern-y-ness!"

I'm surprised that I was approved

Even more surprised that I am still allowed in.

Moosepucky seems to draw some harsh battle lines, but I always know that it will be free after exhausting all other choices.

I do not find your name pornographic, just kind of funny!

@AnneWimsey porno guy..... never thought of it that way before 🤔

More of a "you talking to me" type of name. Argumentative. Rude. Obnoxious. All of the things I am not. Combine that with honest, recent photos and it is a recipe for solitude.

@moosepucky hiding in plain sight, are ya?
