AIBU username envy

Inspired by electricflyzapper. I am compleatly envious of some of your usernames! I wish I was creative enough to think of one that good. Am I the only person who gets this? Is it unreasonable? If you also suffer username inferiority complex, whose username do you covert?

Yes, it is, Jux, both subtle and clever. It was ages after I first joined MN that its meaning dawned on me.

In response to the request from a pp, here is the thread that led to the AndThatHorse.

Another great username is CuttedUpPear.

my favourite one is "Wherethefucksmyfuckingcoat" Grin

Passmethecrisps · 19/09/2015 20:09

I am discusted with myself that I have only twigged sirChenjin now. How thick am I?

I love a pun username. Love a pun me. Sadly I am talentless with regard to witty wordplay.

MsAdorabelleDearheartVonLipwig · 19/09/2015 20:20

Who has two hundred nicknames? I've got about five I think. Blush

Sausagesforteatime · 19/09/2015 20:20

I love AnyFucker but I don't see any subtlety?
Am I being thick?

StealthPolarBear · 19/09/2015 20:24

I always like thehumanjam and asked her why but she never responded

Passmethecrisps · 19/09/2015 20:26

For the record as if anyone cares I have never name changed

ShiningWhite · 19/09/2015 20:27

I've just got SirChenjin! I was going to mention FuckYouChrisAndThatHorse but so many others got there before me, as they did with the witty names! I thought I was so clever when I tried to call myself CupidStunt but someone else got there first!

RandomSocks · 19/09/2015 20:28

Sausages, as a user name it is just clever, but subtle (imo) when matched with the content of her posts. You are not being thick, it really is subtle.

RandomSocks · 19/09/2015 20:29

I remember the lightbulb moment when I first got SirChenjin. That moment made me feel thick.

StealthPolarBear · 19/09/2015 20:32

Ooh yes I love ovo
Ultimate in subtle

Katsite · 19/09/2015 20:59

Has anyone said NoArmaniNoPunani? Alltime favorite! Of course my own username is really witty in italian....

kinkytoes · 19/09/2015 21:07

And I thought I was being greedy with 5 usernames! Feel like I should go all out crazy and creative with some new ones now. If I can get my brain out of this toddler fog. Ooh ToddlerFog there's a thought!

LieselVonTwat · 19/09/2015 21:21

There are many other members of the family Von Trapp twatters. Feel free to reserve any you like for future use, and I'll steer well clear!

WorraLiberty · 19/09/2015 21:31

If anyone's looking for nick name inspiration, there are some funny ones here

I particularly like Warren Peace Grin

OMG Dixie I only just got what your name means! Shock Blush

It took me ages to get 'Stacey Tidd' too!

WorraLiberty · 19/09/2015 21:39

Oh yes, you should grab Wayne Deer for Christmas

TheMagicalChicken · 19/09/2015 21:41
