Screen Name & Avatar Confusion

A woolybug is a descriptor of a caterpillar. One day you will be a butterfly, homey.

They have an excellent civil, environmental, and electrical engineering program, which I am in, and allow civilians to come take the program at night. They also allow Officer Candidates from all armed services, as well as veterans to take classes there. So after working fulltime I go to school there 4 hours every night. Its basically a separate "school or program" but I still take courses with cadets and are tought the same material by the same teachers the cadets are. Pretty cool actually.

Its a big deal around here. Probably not so much outside of the state.

That's cool.

I guess I learn something new everyday

That may be, but in the case of IE's resident Dude, I'm pretty sure it's a reference to fly fishing.

Speaking of, getting sloshed on Colorado's finest craft beer and going fly fishing with wooly is on my bucket list.

For a while I thought GITF's name was Golden is Thy FLAME

Also, Domelover...don't need to say anymore.

 

[GO IRISH!!!]

For the longest time I thought BGIF was BiG IF.

Hey hey hey wtf???

And yes DomeLover, you seriously need to change your screen name.

 

[GoldenIsThyFame]

GITF - Is your chest hair really shaved into a triangle?

No it is shaved it the shape of a mustache.

I still read "Big If" and chuckle. "IF" in my volleyball world has a specific meaning that I'll only share for a vFee. My only hint is that the "I" stands for "Irish." Feel free to fill in what "F" might stand for.

Avatar - "Big Red" battle flag carried by the Citadel Cadets servingin the Confederate Army during the Civil War. Actual flag from 1860s found in the Iowa Historical Society collection and returned to the Citadel recently. Now on display at the school.

Reason for avatar - I go to school there, though not a cadet. This is essentially the same flag as the SC state flag, just red and not blue.

I am not originally from SC but did genealogy and found out my family came to America from Ireland/England through Charleston in the early 1700s and resided in SC before spreading out after the Civil War.

Handle: Cackalacky. Just what you think. That where I be. Plus South Cackalack has produced some fine ND footballers.

I thought your name was 'lacking-cack'. Sorry brah..

Were you the guy with the mullett, Ponyboy Curtis' doubles partner, in "Side Out?"

 

[NoJusticeNoPeace]

Just like with Wooly/Whiskeyjack/beryirish, I look just like a Godspeed You! Black Emperor album cover with a cat on it.

**raises hand**

OOOO!!! OOOO!!! Pick me! Pick me!!!

Does the "F" stand for "****er"?

My avatar is my future self. I don't look like that yet, but that is me when I get to be dshans' age.

And, yes, pegged jeans come back in style in the future.

Drop the "er" and you've got it. It had to do with my "ability" to have a hard driven ball bounce off some part of my body (head, shoulder, knee, foot, groin, etc.) and land gently six inches over the net for a "kill."

One of my buds blurted out "Shan...., you Irish F***" when I successfully executed such a "shot." The designation "I-F" was born to describe such a lucky-as-hell "hit."

Don't worry about the vFee right now. I know you're good for it.

"You F***er," without the "Irish" prelude, came up more often. With occasional exceptions we were all something-Americans. I believe that over the years we had brief appearances in our standing game by Brits, Swedes and Russians. Fortunately, all understood rudimentary American English. Sadly, many were taller and better than I at v-ball. I was often sore at the end of the night.

Sometimes I get confused and I think I'm not the fastest gun since Wild Bill. But then I remember that I'm me... then I drink.

 

[Grahambo]

Grahambo = Graham + Rambo

I'm pretty much in the jungles of Vietnam, Thailand, and Burma killing random bad dudes as I post here.

It's really no big deal.

 

[NDinMich]

I'm not really Sadaam Hussein...

 

[DomeLover3]

Hey hey hey wtf???

And yes DomeLover, you seriously need to change your screen name.

You also shot Brian Dennehy in the d*ck with an M-60. Dirty pool, old man.

Haven't you all ever listened to the words in the alma mater???! What is wrong with you people!?

This is a debate for a whole new thread, but I like the idea!

 

[no.1IrishFan]

I was releived when I found out that Acamp wasn't a black cat who wears a crown.

Apparently he just wears a tiara.

 

[PANDFAN]

I have to believe PANDFAN is Pa (as in Pennsylvania) ND (as in ND) and FAN (as in Fan). Or perhaps he is to Pandas as what Richard Geer is to Hamsters.

at first i was like but then i was like

That makes me a sad PANDFAN

I thought for the longest time that PANDFAN was "Pennsylvania ND Fan"... until he changed his avatar to some sort of Panda creation.

people always were asking me in messages if i was a panda fan...so connor sent me some pics as a joke..but you were correct from the start

I'm fairly certain that's what his handle is intended to mean.

It always looked like PANDAFAN to me, so I changed his title to "I LOVE PANDAS!!1" at some point. So I may bear some small measure of responsibility for this one.

i love you all!!! and what's not to like about a panda anyway???

And I always thought pandas too so I sent him the avatar he uses now on a lark

thanks again brotha

My avatar is of my future wife. I called dibs years ago!

lucy pinder... my wife knows my lust for her...
