Cmon, play fair, shove a 33 or a 456 after your name to help differentiate.

Some of us have weak mental facilties.

both confuse me

SoleSource · 04/08/2012 09:32

I haven't seen another Sole anything. I think I might namechange soon to Sole Survivor.

MardySkimpyBeachVolleyballBra · 04/08/2012 09:58

Thanks for the pms.

Sole - there is Solo, but I don't see any confusion there.

ErikNorseman · 04/08/2012 12:11

Pm??? Pls?

MikeLitorisRings · 04/08/2012 12:13

PM for me too please.

I know this is a bit off topic but I thought of an incredibly witty name last night, went to register it this morning and found it's already been taken. Quick search reveals that said poster posted once, in 2005, whinging about a Boden cardigan. Angry

I think we witty nicknames should have shelf lives... She's obviously not coming back. And I want it.

serotoninbutterfly · 04/08/2012 12:27

I haven't seen another name like mine Grin

Does that mean I'm speshul?

AmberLeaf · 04/08/2012 12:59

I have been confused once or twice with Amber light even more open to confusion as she posts on SN board with the same 'interest' as I do.

I wasn't being very creative when I chose my name.

AmberLeaf · 04/08/2012 13:00

I love your name serotonin!

LurkeyLurkerson · 04/08/2012 13:16

I googled my name. Theirs a picture of a toilet with some wee in it Sad

Theirs also a very keen cyclist Lurkey. Not to be confused with 'couldn't fit her fat arse on her bike if she tried Lurkey of MN'

May change my name to that...

AbsolutelyNotHoneyDragon · 04/08/2012 13:35

PM me too ..no wait, I don't actually care.

Lurkey, that's worse then googling mine, I get ladies who like old men for fun and thrills

catinboots · 04/08/2012 13:58

Don't care was made to care Honey

AbsolutelyNotHoneyDragon · 04/08/2012 14:43

Cat Grin, I hear you.

serotoninbutterfly · 04/08/2012 17:50

Thanks Amber I like yours too

I think I should be a bit more like my name and flutter around spreading happiness Smile

couldn't be more different than my MN name

BellaVita · 04/08/2012 17:57

Bloody hell Grin this is the first time I have ever got a proper mention on a thread Grin! Thank you BelleDameSansMerci

theyarebetter · 04/08/2012 18:05

I get people mixed up with entirely different names.

I kind of think Reality, Bupcakes, and TSC are the same person.

I'm stupid. :(

Moominsarescary · 04/08/2012 18:18

About 6 months ago lots of moomins appeared, one even sent me a pm saying sorry you were here first I'll name change. After a while they all seemed to disappear.

Over the last few weeks I've noticed them start to reappear. I'm starting to wonder if moomins hibernate?

AmberLeaf · 04/08/2012 19:22

Thanks serotonin! I have given up now so maybe I should change it to PinkLungs
