On the other hand, I did 'get' MrRected the first time I saw it :)

but only because I'd clocked the Mr then the post was clearly by a woman - so I looked at it again

OP YADBU.

Don't you know that AIBU is for serious people with serious topics such as "AIBU for being cross with next-door's cat for walking on my garden fence". Grin

Kaluki · 28/08/2013 13:51

TSC say it out loud!!!

VixZenFenchell · 28/08/2013 13:51

TSC - I've always "heard" it when reading as "misdirected".

OP - yabu, your username isn't remotely amusing, let alone hilarious.

ObamasElf - love it. Funny and clever :)

LoopThePoop · 28/08/2013 13:58

ObamasElf totally stole your thunder OP!!!!

Now, that has made me laugh.
Go and name change OP, I'm cringing for you.

Wahla · 28/08/2013 13:59

I didn't get it but saying that, it has only recently dawned on me that Enormasnob is enormous knob not enorma snob, as I had been reading it, so who am I to judge?!

currentlyconfuseddotcom · 28/08/2013 14:04

What is SirChenJin please? Blush

wannabedomesticgoddess · 28/08/2013 14:05

I have said SirChenJin out loud and still don't get it Confused

VixZenFenchell · 28/08/2013 14:05

Bing, google, start page, yahoo, duck duck go ... :)

DontWannaBeObamasElf · 28/08/2013 14:06

Wahla So it is! I'd been say Enorma Snob. Grin

Well still chuckle at the OP, reminds me of that hilarious thread.

Is DorothyBastard still going by that name? That was pretty funny too.

wannabedomesticgoddess · 28/08/2013 14:10

Aha! Got it! :o

currentlyconfuseddotcom · 28/08/2013 14:17

D'oh! Only just got it. I was thinking of it as three syllables, Sir Chen Jin, and frantically trying to think of which name it matched when said out loud!

FunnyRunner · 28/08/2013 14:19

Finally got Obama's Elf :o

(and sing it if you don't get it)

Beeyump · 28/08/2013 14:21

Argh, my brain nearly exploded trying to work out SirChenJin. What sweet relief now I have realised.
OP, your name would only be possibly hilarious to those who were around for the thread in question, or had read it in Classics. It doesn't seem quite as accessible as funny puns etc. YABU Smile

MoominsYonisAreScary · 28/08/2013 14:22

Enormasnob always makes me chuckle, obamasElf is a good one too

HeffalumpTheFlump · 28/08/2013 14:26

SirChenJin - that's brilliant. I hadnt clocked it and thought that it was an oriental sort of name. Blush I feel a bit silly now.

Op, sorry I read the thread but don't find your name that funny.

frizzcat · 28/08/2013 14:30

Can someone link to the original thread in classics can't find it! Using my effing phone

UnexpectedStepmum · 28/08/2013 14:34

I always read ComposHat as Compo Shat rather than Compo's Hat.

SarahAndFuck · 28/08/2013 14:34

Haven't read the other thread so didn't get your name OP, probably the same as Arnie.

I only clicked what MikeOxard's name was yesterday and felt a bit daft about not realising before.

But I did get SirChenJin, ObamasElf and EnormaSnob Smile

Beeyump · 28/08/2013 14:36

I read it as Comp Shat too!

DontWannaBeObamasElf · 28/08/2013 14:39

Every thread MikeOxard is on I think "What/who is that?" Now I got it! Brilliant!

FunnysInLaJardin · 28/08/2013 14:43

OP who are you?

Didn't know we had Tennis now. Pray tell why?

Beeyump · 28/08/2013 14:45

Healthy, dashing equivalent of the biscuit?

RoastedCouchPotatoes · 28/08/2013 14:49

I love MikeOxard's name Smile
