Assuming quite a few of u will of seen the removed thread where it seems someone thought they could be very rude and hurtful in reference to an internet handle! - obvs if u reference a show or celebrity in ur handle u hold the same views & lifestyle etc.....
So just for full disclosure, as I was unaware of this rule before an insightful dickhead of a poster drew my attention too it - I'm not more coffee than actual human person, I just quite like it - I'm definitely at least 90% human

sarcasm alert incase any one is offended - it is mn after all

You got me. As far as I know Mal is fixing to misbehave somewhere shiny on the other side of the 'verse, unwed to this day Sad.

mrstweefromtweesville · 08/10/2015 20:35

I am indeed 'Mrs Twee' and I am 'from Tweesville'.
For the purposes of MN, anyway.

MrsMalcolmReynolds you must change your name immediately and keep your grubby mits off my hubby. Actually never mind, Nathan Fillion isn't looking so hot these days.

Creatureofthenight · 08/10/2015 20:40

I am not really a creature of the night as I have to get up at 6.30 in the bloody morning. But I would like to be.

Idefix · 08/10/2015 20:44

I am not a fixed idea oh okay I am fixated on Wine and Cake, perhaps I could nc to Marie Antoinette and I am mostly not a dog from a French comic Grin

I do not have a spare badger whose provenance I do not know

DangerousBeanz · 08/10/2015 21:35

I am not a talking rodent associate of the amazing Maurice, although I am fairly educated. Nor am I an explosive haricot.

TheLambShankRedemption · 08/10/2015 21:40

I've been tunnelling an escape route from the kitchen for several years, using a spoon and a melon baller.

TimeToMuskUp · 08/10/2015 21:49

But, but it really is time to musk up. 60% of the time it works every time.

I am not the Danish state of feeling contented cosiness, but I try.

Under a previous and sweary name, I was actually far more calm and serene a poster.

Then I was accidentally outed, changed my name to a character from children's literature, and found myself to be quite argumentative.

I don't know if the difference in my posting was down to the way I felt at the time or if other posters responded differently to me. People seemed to quite like and enjoy my sweary name. It got mentions on those threads about MNers whose names you like and everything.

Maybe I need to add a Danish swear word onto the end of this one and see how it goes then Grin

Yes I am a witch but I no longer have a hearth

CalonDu · 08/10/2015 23:10

My heart is more mosaic than black, but I don't know the word for it.

mrsmalcolmreynolds · 08/10/2015 23:20

BogBrush he's still got a certain charm, no? I would have to call Christina Hendricks out in a duel if I ever met her.

HubertsBirthdayStick · 08/10/2015 23:27

I love my new name. I am a stick, really.

SaltySeaBird · 08/10/2015 23:44

I'm not salty or a bird. But I'm a female who lives on the coast and regularly runs along the seafront where I get covered in a fine spray on windy days.

The day I chose my username though a large, damp looking seagull was trying to get my attention tapping on the window.

HesSpartacus · 09/10/2015 00:00

Spartacus is the name of my cat. So yes, he's Spartacus, actually.

grumpysquash · 09/10/2015 00:11

I am not grumpy, except for the first 10 mins of the day :)

I don't play squash, or eat squash, although I sometimes drink a glass of squash.

DC used to like Plants vs Zombies though....

mrsglowglow · 09/10/2015 00:28

Well I am a Mrs and I do glow - so much so that I wrote it twice!
