July 2008 Username Change Thread

It’s not polite to address a part-time scarecrow as ‘Hey scarecrow’ na. :unamused_face:
And all our TE gurus are just the tips of icebergs that we see now.
They all have a claim to fame in something or the other- just not so visible/evident to all.
One thing we all could learn from them is humility.:cool2:

DC is the one who lost it somewhere down the line. :rofl:
sorry DC sir- no khoofiya msg for long time na.

lol, gannu and stalker must be renamed stalker1 and stalker2 :stuck_out_tongue:

backtoexistence to >> BackToExistence
just need a change of case..
the current one looks too confusing at times.. :slight_smile:
Thankoo

Please change my user name to NoName01

My current user name looks odd and is plain

when would the name change take place ?

Ok.. the reason first… I have been using pixelpusher pixelpainter and other pixel somethings for so long I am completely sick of it :stuck_out_tongue:

I want to change it to either

Ouroboros

which is an ancient symbol depicted as a serpent or dragon swallowing its own tail and forming a circle. It symbolizes ideas of cyclicality, unity, or infinity and rebirth cycle of life and death. The Ouroboros has been important in religious and mythological symbolism from many different cultures and religions.

or

Jörmungandr

This is a Norse incarnation or version of the Worm Ouroboros. The God Odin tossed Jörmungandr (Loki’s child)into the great ocean that encircles Midgard. The serpent grew so big that he was able to surround the Earth and grasp his own tail, and as a result he earned the alternate name of the Midgard Serpent or World Serpent

So I want to kill off this old name and be reborn into my new one :stuck_out_tongue: I am kind of leaning towards Jörmungandr, I think it has a nicer ring to it… what do you guys think?

I decided on Möbius please[/B]

typing the ö when you want to login from elsewhere might be an issue :stuck_out_tongue:

supriya? .. u thinking of changing yer name ?? :rofl:

OT: i’ve read about it. and wasn’t Thor the only god who could lift the midgard serpen whom Loki mocked by deluding him to think was just a cat. :stuck_out_tongue:

Infact you’ll find the ouroboros symbolism in Firefox which was developed by some swiss developers. In addition to that, the cow easter eggs in mozilla applications refer to Audumbla who gave birth to Burr, the first Norse God.

Fascinating.

What do you think of ‘Artful Dodger’? :smiley:

lol so you remembered :unamused_face: that’s a good one… :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:but…I can make better avatar’s for the others. Besides.. it has more meaning for me since i was born in the Chinese year of the dragon :stuck_out_tongue:

Huh… didn’t occur to me but it makes sense… actually you will find the worm Ouroboros in mentioned in the mythology/religion of many cultures.

For instance it is sometimes thought that it is also present in some Hindu folk-myths, as a snake (Adisesha) circling the tortoise Maha kurma that supports the eight elephants which support the world on their backs. But this is inconclusive since it does not swallow/eat it’s own tail.

Second one is too tough to pronounce :stuck_out_tongue:

i just want mods to change my name to: Rockfella instead of rockfella.

aaaaah!!! but what’s the reason :wink: no reason no changes … according to mods :unamused_face:

From d_payne to -D.Payne-. (D Raw El Payne or the_royal_pain to be explicit) :smiley:

As said before, d_payne sounds more like an email ID and not an username. Most people refer me as Payne anyway. :slight_smile:

Payne

ok…

I found a reference that has similar meanings and occurs in mathematics…

Möbius (as in Möbius strip)
