Omit Name

Nah, that's a bit exaggerated don't you think? I'm mostly found only in the bin, and then not even in every thread... :confused:

just a side note: i'm German and i've never heard of the word "caret" before. Actually i don't even think of the german word for that certain symbol (which would be "Zikumflex" btw) when i write or read my nick.

Oh, and apropos carrot:

Why would you want to pronounce ^..^ anyway? To tell your Recycle Bin adventures to your friends? :p

22nd April 2006, 21:23

Indeed, actually i never really tried to pronounce my nickname (nor did i ever saw any reason why i should do so).

I wonder what a screenreader would make out of that name though.

23rd April 2006, 20:17

@Mr_007: I'd like to know how you came to that name!? I mean everything else before was more or less obvious. Just curious...

btw: no one has yet answered the question why a nick (respectively mine) has to be pronounced at all... :confused:

skryingbreath

23rd April 2006, 20:50

So that when the internet becomes obsolete we can tell our grandchildren stories of it, and the many abstract adventures that exsisted only in the comfort of the winamp forums bin!

^..^

23rd April 2006, 21:02

Well, i don't think there's much in the bin that i want my grandchildren to know... :tinfoil:

Anyway, why can't you just admit that i am ineffable and that's it?! :p

It's not that you're ineffable, ^..^, it's that we're all jealous. I'm sure I can speak for everyone here when I say that your name fucking rocks! :D:up:

I wish I had thought of such a cool name when I was twelve. I mean, look at what I'm stuck with now: denkensiefursich. :rolleyes: What kind of a name is that? It's too fucking long, hard to pronounce, and doesn't mean shit to me anymore. :(

I have one part in my body that "morphs", in fact it can grow 4-5 times in size!

Do you know what it is? ;)

Why that? Is it the 10 points you recieved or rather because a certain part of your body did grow by 300% (5->15) right now? :confused:

:p
