But MT was such a cool name! Iodioteque sounds vaguely pretentious. Sorry, but you asked!

Kif · 26/03/2007 23:03

That is a change!

Old you: chatty well dressed simian

new you: You sound like a cross between a french oerson and a salvador dali painting.

So, the question is, which is YOU

hMM?

WotzsanEgg · 26/03/2007 23:04

why namechange? Monkeytrousers is lovely.

Spidermama · 26/03/2007 23:05

It's a good name but you are Monkeytrousers and even if you do change it, every time I see the new name I'll think to myself, 'Ah yes. She means Monkeytrousers'.

Kif · 26/03/2007 23:07

It;s scary because it sounds like it must 'mean' something - in a surreal postmodern way.

Like 'eque' in the sense of 'biblioteque' ie french for library... so 'Idiot library'.. did someone call us thick? Or not? Arghhh!

That kind of scary/

So it's not even original...really monkey, you should have trusted your first ancestral instincts.
