i find everyone's "names" on SC fascinating, i enjoy cruising through names and reading people's descriptions.   i always wonder to myself...hmmm...wonder what that name means? or how did they decide on that name? of course i'm also distracted by shiny quarters and pretty lights!!! anyone feel like sharing?  i guess i should start, although mine is not very curious or exciting...
 
i'm of the generation that watched the show "Fraggle Rock" while growing up.  I LOVED that show (who doesn't love a muppet?)  I distinctly remember eating my Boo-Berry cereal and watching my beloved Fraggles ;)  i still love the song, have it on my computer, had it as my ringtone for a while...so since i loved the fraggles and i think i rock, a "fragglesrock" was born.

  • uniquely-ironic said on Nov 06, 2008....
    A friend once described me as unique.  I think they were trying to find a way to say "pain in the ass" politely, but I'll take it.  The ironic has to do with my appreciation of the ironies of life, my own included.  I love to see opposites collide, the unusual present it's self.
  • fragglesrock said on Nov 06, 2008....

    uni - "pain in the ass politely" lol! hmmm...i'll have to remember that.  i think ironies are great too, thanks for sharing :)

  • Lucytorial said on Nov 06, 2008....
    Uni is a pain in the arss! bwaa ha ahhaa no just kidding, she'd kick my butt for that... :-D
     
    Fraggles.... you know it suits you now, sounds kind of out of control! (lol)
  • uniquely-ironic said on Nov 06, 2008....
    Lucy - come closer and say that ;)  You may be taller and younger than me, but I'm mean and I don't fight fair!!
  • Lucytorial said on Nov 06, 2008....
    ooops! **nervous giggle** I'm not a fighter, I'm a       a             I'm a wuss!
     
     
  • uniquely-ironic said on Nov 06, 2008....
    LOL just buy me a margarita and all is forgiven. 
  • Lucytorial said on Nov 06, 2008....
    Okay Margertia for Uni, Martini for me, and for Fraggles? how about a Dacquiri? mango?
  • fragglesrock said on Nov 06, 2008....

    lucy - i'm  like a baby that has grown into a big name.  pssst...don't you think that uniquely-ironic is very...errr..ummm...unique? <wink>

     

    oooooh! a girlie fight! uni, want to borrow my brass knuckles? lucy, get your ass back here i'll slip ya the shank i made out of my spork from lunch

  • uniquely-ironic said on Nov 06, 2008....
    Gawwwww! Can you imagine how the axis of the earth would be affected if the three of us ended up in the same bar?!!  *giggles hysterically*
  • Lucytorial said on Nov 06, 2008....
    *Giggling with snot coming out her nose Lucy says*
     
    The sun would go out!
     
    You know I have a habit of taking over peoples posts... err Fraggles... grow into a big name huh? and that would be that your box isn't quite big enough to be your coffin yet so keep dancing? bwa ha ha ha ha ha haha
     
     
  • fragglesrock said on Nov 06, 2008....

    uni - that depends....do i have my shank and brass knuckles with me when we end up in the bar????  haha! yes i must agree, we'd get new names....

    fraggles-in-action would be mine

  • fragglesrock said on Nov 06, 2008....

    <slapping lucy> PULL YOUR SHIT TOGETHER AND WIPE THE SNOT OFF YOUR FACE WOMAN! you've got a big day today, don't crack now!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Lucytorial said on Nov 06, 2008....
    Fraggles, I've always wanted to go to Manhatan and drink a Manhatan, what say you?
     
    You know with an Aussie in the group we'd be so fucking popular we wouldn't need to pay for our drinks... all I'd need to do is say "Gidday Mate"
  • uniquely-ironic said on Nov 06, 2008....
    You have knuckles?!!  I'm so jealous.  If we get new names out of the deal mine will probably end up being uniquely-hurtin'. LOL
     
    Oh, and bring your flashlights just in case Lucy's right about the sun.
  • Lucytorial said on Nov 06, 2008....
    Too true... now what would my name be... I'm rather attached to Lucy, maybe it might become Lucybloodynose?
  • Hegemone said on Nov 06, 2008....
    Wow, almost thinkin' of stayin' outta this one, but it's just too much fun!  So ok, my name came from my reading a set of science fiction books (Orson Scott Card, Ender's series) but I couldn't get the name Demosthenes (as is used in the series), so I started researching other greek goddesses and such.  I read Hegemone's profile, like it, felt it fit me a little in places and stuck with it.  In as far as my little description, well, that should be obvious ... also, any excuse to get somebody to read my sometimes endless, sometimes hilarious blogs! 

    Oh and frag - I so completely remember most of that show too...I so badly want to get it on VHS or DVD, don't even care, just so I can watch it again.  Do you remember Eureeka's Castle too maybe?  Nobody else ever knows what I'm talking about when I mention it!
  • Lucytorial said on Nov 06, 2008....
    Okay, so Hegemone is another goddess... right girls... I think Bloody Mary for the lady with the headress.
  • uniquely-ironic said on Nov 06, 2008....
    How about Looney Lucy? *sticks tongue out at you*
     
    Join in Hegemone we may need a greek goddess to save our sorry asses.
  • Lucytorial said on Nov 06, 2008....
    Obviously Uni ~ You failed at tongue poking... see this is how you do it!
     
    **Looney Lucy crosses her eyes, scrunches her nose, and opens her mouth WIDE**
     
    TTTTTTTTTHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP
     
    Maybe Hegemone is too polite for the likes of us but every goddess has a corruptable streak! lets see.... whats under that damn robe girl! give us a look!
  • uniquely-ironic said on Nov 06, 2008....
    would you believe I am actually tongue tied? (for real)  Yeah, my tongue sticking out is pretty pathetic.
     
    I'll bet Hegemone can drink all of us under the table, right? *wiggles eyebrows*
  • Lucytorial said on Nov 06, 2008....
    Don't you wiggle those eyebrows at me like that women! here have another Margerita...
     
    Now where was I ?? ohh thats right... trying to get a load of the loot under Hegemones robes...
  • uniquely-ironic said on Nov 06, 2008....
    Oh, that'll fix me!  Now I can't feel my lips anymore!  Am I smiling?!!!
     
    *falls on floor, which gives her a pretty good shot of looking up Hegemone's robes*
     
     
  • Lucytorial said on Nov 06, 2008....
    Fraggles?? quick, Uni has finally taken one too many sips form the cup of life.. if we can keep her awake we'll find out if Hegemone is wearing nickers! I'll get the bucket and smelling salts for Uni......
     
    ((Christ women, I'm gonna have to teach you how to handle your booze!))
  • uniquely-ironic said on Nov 06, 2008....
    *rolls on the floor giggling*
     
    Too late fair friends!!!  I'm am officially plastered.  (yes I'm a cheap date)
     
    Where are the snacks!  I must eat if I'm going to continue to drink.
  • Lucytorial said on Nov 06, 2008....
    Ohh man **Lucy cackles so loudly everyone stares**

    Fraggles... grab that women she's licking the floor for crackers.... BWA HA HA HA
     
    Uni??? Uni *Lucy says raw voiced* here... shove that in your mouth *Lucy shoves bread stick up Uni's nose*
     
    Bwaa ha ha haa okay now... Seems as though Fraggles has passed out, Hegemone left in embarrassment.... so its just you and me honey!
     
    bar tender?? **Lucy slaps bar with palm** I need a drink mate! champagne!
     
    Trall la la BOOM DE AYE! tra lala BOOM de AYE... tra la la BOOM DE AYE!
     
  • Hegemone said on Nov 06, 2008....
    Ha ha ha ha ha .... yes indeed.... nickers ...  Nyanyanyana!  Now you'll never know what's under my robes! 

    We'll see if I can hold my liquor ... I'm sticking with my plain' ol rum and coke ... slow and steady for me for now!  Hopefully this won't be anything like the wedding I went to a couple weeks ago ... I did not hold my liquor for that! 

    To many drinks and I'll need somebody setting me straight, let alone all of you lol.


  • uniquely-ironic said on Nov 06, 2008....
    *laughs so hard bread stick shoots out of nose to hit Lucy square in the ass*
     
    Let's wake fraggles up.  Now, where would Hegemone go to hide?  The lady's room?  Come on!  Les go looky.
  • Hegemone said on Nov 06, 2008....
    Muahahahaha!  *Peers around door , clears throat ... Anybody in here?*  Nope!  I'll evade them ... I'm gonna hide in the men's room for a change!
  • uniquely-ironic said on Nov 06, 2008....
    Lucy!  Will you get over here, pick me up, and aim me in the general direction of the bathrooms?!!!  She'll get away if we're not quick.
  • Hegemone said on Nov 06, 2008....
    Ah blast it!  My bladder just never agrees with this alcohol!

    * Locks stall door*  Let's just hope I have enough time!
  • Hegemone said on Nov 06, 2008....
    Oops ... looks like the husband has caught me drunk a stall of the men's bathroom! 

    *boo hoo*

    He's makin' me go home ladies!  S'pose we've got things to do... so I'll let you all carry on.  Try not to get too silly on that booze!  : > )
  • uniquely-ironic said on Nov 06, 2008....
    *waves goodbye*
     
    Bye Hegemone!  I'd take an Advil before you go to bed tonight.
     
    Now, where is that Lucy?!!
  • Lucytorial said on Nov 06, 2008....
    **Retching can be heard from Lucy's stall**
     
    Agghh thats better.... okay who's got my handbag? I need lippy!
     
    Hegemone.. OH NO you don't girl... **Lucy grabs robe which then unravells**
     
    Ooops sorry bout that but SHIT! Look at those tits! man, wish I had a pair like that!
     
    Uni ~ You done in there? sounds like a fucking horse piss to me....
  • uniquely-ironic said on Nov 06, 2008....
    Hey! watch what you're calling me Barftilda!  Here's the purse, but what the hell is lippy?

  • fragglesrock said on Nov 07, 2008....

    qp - i was wondering about your name!!!!! thanks for sharing, i had no idea that you rock out so hard! cool!!!!!!!!!!!

  • maryjanespunk said on Nov 07, 2008....
    This name "Mary Jane Spunk" is my secret name I made to blog as well as a name on yahoo for speaking with potential no-strings lovers and private friends I make outside of my family. I got the name off a porn name generater LOL! Plus i used to call weed Mary Jane back in the day and I think "Spunk" is one of the funniest ways to describe sperm/ejaculate.
  • fragglesrock said on Nov 07, 2008....
    maryjane - i LOOOVE the name generators! i could play for hours on those - cool! thanks for sharing :)
  • skald said on Nov 07, 2008....
    I had another name for about 2 weeks I think then I decided that I could be known at home with that name. Funny, I don't think any Icelanders are here but me. At that time I did not want to be known because I wanted to talk about things that I felt that I could not talk about in  my little society where almost everyone knows everybody else. So I change my name to skald. It had to be short and it had to be in my language. It means a poet or an author. someone who creates. I am not a skald but I like the name. 
  • fragglesrock said on Nov 07, 2008....
    skald - thank you! your name was one that was really baffling to me :)
  • travelr712 said on Nov 07, 2008....
    mine comes from the fact that in my previous career, i traveled allot, but when i signed up for AOL 2.0 (before there was an internet) the name travelr and many iterations had been taken. so i dropped the last 'e' and added my birth date, and voila, travelr712.
  • fragglesrock said on Nov 07, 2008....
    trav - i seriously NEVER put together the birthdate thing...see why i have to ask these questions? :) and....hi.
  • travelr712 said on Nov 07, 2008....
    i thought i told you already fraggs, guess not huh? and hi yourself.
  • Lucytorial said on Nov 07, 2008....
    hold on.... where did you all go?? fuck me... that hairy bouncer really knows how to kick a girl while she's down...
     
    Uni ~ Dahhling Lippy is lipstick you dip shit...
     
    Fraggles?? why does that lady have her hand up your ass? I didn't think you were like that love..... and where the hell did you get this lothario from (Lucy eyes up Trav) gggrrrrrr
  • uniquely-ironic said on Nov 07, 2008....
    well why didn't you say so in english in the first place!!  You bloody Aussies talk a foreign launguage
  • Lucytorial said on Nov 07, 2008....
    yes I know but thats what has kept us drinking and throwing up all night... its the accent see... irresistable.....
     
    Don't you think its strange Fraggles has a hand up her ass?? and she's smiling???
  • uniquely-ironic said on Nov 07, 2008....
    That is weird, but I was gonna ignore it and hope she got herself straightened out.  Are you saying that if you didn't have those accents that the country as a whole would be more sober?  Scary ......
  • Lucytorial said on Nov 07, 2008....
    probably, actually I was thinking the other day that if we didn't drink we wouldn't have an accent at all... like a reversal... imagine if we all reverted to cockney english and the irish twang?? scary!
  • uniquely-ironic said on Nov 07, 2008....
    Oh, don't say scary things like that!  I've always wondered if it were possible to have a party in Australia without copious amounts of alcohol and rough housing.  Now I know.
  • Lucytorial said on Nov 07, 2008....
    definitely not possible... its a piss-a-bolity but not a reall poss-a-bility...
     
    who you calling rough?
  • uniquely-ironic said on Nov 07, 2008....
    well, look at the Russell Crowe dude.  He's always rough housing and beating on defenseless concierge people!!
  • fragglesrock said on Nov 07, 2008....
    oh! oh! where? where is russell crowe?
  • Lucytorial said on Nov 07, 2008....
    Hey he's a hottie... met him once actually at a place called the W in the Rocks.. he owns an apartment in the W hotel, went there for a champas one afternoon and said gidday mate... ncie guy actually just an aussie.
  • uniquely-ironic said on Nov 07, 2008....
    nice, but he is genetically incapable of not starting a ruckus?!!  Bwa ha ha ha.
  • Lucytorial said on Nov 07, 2008....
    nooo its just that he's quite well manly is the only word I can use.. very manly.. hubby looked like a fucking three year old next to his manliness... then again I like hairy manly men... why did I get married? someone remind me?
  • uniquely-ironic said on Nov 07, 2008....
    it was lurv Lucy.  You married him because you lurv him and he can actually tolerate you!! [impish grin]
     
    RC sure is a very manly guy.  I'm not sure he's my ideal, but he's pretty close.
  • Lucytorial said on Nov 07, 2008....
    I prefer Eric Banner.... yes lurv that must be it
  • uniquely-ironic said on Nov 07, 2008....
    Well, you know who I prefer, and I stand by my decision to give him a go if he can keep up with me!!
  • Lucytorial said on Nov 07, 2008....
    BWA HA HA HA HA that indeed is the only thing that will stop him...
  • uniquely-ironic said on Nov 07, 2008....
    poor guy, I'm actually afraid I might run him into the ground.  Of course I'd enjoy the entire ride ;)
  • Lucytorial said on Nov 07, 2008....
    there is no other way to do it Uni ~ You can't pussy foot around something like that....
     
    Actually I was thinking the other day about bumping like bunnies and remember a particular experience.... damn.. it was so disappointing when he fell asleep!
  • uniquely-ironic said on Nov 07, 2008....
    LOL you're merciless aren't you?!!  Well, yes, I agree.  You must find someone with similar energy and interest levels.  Otherwise one of you get's run ragged.
  • Lucytorial said on Nov 07, 2008....
    or not as the case may be ! LOL
     
    okay gotta start my day girl... its 10am and I'm still sitting here in my swimmer bottoms and t shirt, no shower.. stinky bed smell ! LOL and a shit load of housework to do.. unless ya wanna do it for me... magic like?
  • uniquely-ironic said on Nov 07, 2008....
    are you kidding?!!  Get off your lazy ass and clean something or someone!
  • fragglesrock said on Nov 07, 2008....
    but i'm just back from the store don't go!!!!!!!!!!
  • Lucytorial said on Nov 07, 2008....
    but I don't wanna!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  *Pouting* urgghh you should see the floor, its covered in dog fur... shows up a treat on floorboards... then there is the pile of dishes that hubby didn't do yesterday or me, and last nights.... then the bathroom bin is overflowing with crap! (not literally of course), my bedroom looks like a bomb went off or someone tried to rob me by throwing my clothes every which way... don't quite know whats clean and whats not !
     
    I'm a grot huh? te he he he he
  • Lucytorial said on Nov 07, 2008....
    fraggles... did you get your wooden peg thingies cut?? or do you have to get your bread knife out?
     
    LOL
  • fragglesrock said on Nov 07, 2008....
    hahahaha! i got em cut...the young boy behind the counter didn't have a chance ;)
  • Lucytorial said on Nov 07, 2008....

    because of boobs right! the law of boobs states that any boobs that are in front of you get anything said boob owners want as long as boobs remain stationary for a period of time long enough to imprint themselves in the mind of counter boys, police officers, bosses, friends boyfriends.... need I say more..

     

    Praise Boobies!

  • pusscat said on Nov 08, 2008....
    My reason isn't anywhere near as interesting or exciting as others I'm afraid but I am sure proud of it.

    For 14 years I adored my beloved cat Harry or 'Pusscat' as he was often known.  He had loads of psuedonyms over the years; pusscat, tubkins, buggerlugs, Harrykins but I didn't fancy being buggerlugs on SC or anywhere else for that matter LOL!  Let's face it, Harrykins sounds like a camp hairdresser!  So pusscat it was.
  • fragglesrock said on Nov 08, 2008....

    i agree that pusscat is much better than buggerlugs...however i think tubkins is quite adorable :)

  • travelr712 said on Nov 08, 2008....
    i like tubkins too, i think you should change your name pc :-)
  • pusscat said on Nov 08, 2008....
    Hi there trav - how ya diddling my friend?
    Hey there fraggle :-)

    Have you lot been spying on me and seen the weight I appear to have put on around my mid drift LOL?!

    Tubkins does seem to be a bit more apt at the mo ha ha!
  • travelr712 said on Nov 08, 2008....
    not exactly what i meant pc, i just think it's a little umm, warmer maybe? more indicitave of your personality? aww, don't listen to me, i don't know what i'm talking about.
  • pusscat said on Nov 08, 2008....
    Aah bless you trav.  That's a lovely thing to say.  We don't care if you don't know what you're talking about do we folks?  We love you just the way you are :-)
  • Lucytorial said on Nov 08, 2008....
    I still think pusscunt is pure genious! te he he hee sorry love...
  • pusscat said on Nov 08, 2008....
    Ha ha!  I'd forgotten about that one.  Trust you Lucy ;-) 

    Hey - friends don't need to apologise (unless they've eaten your secret stash of chocolate that is but then. . . .  an apology would NOT save you LOL)
  • Lucytorial said on Nov 08, 2008....
    very true! hows your D? hope all is well on that front...

    No surprise I guess, that when I signed up here I was feeling, let's say, a little cursed.
    That's not normally my state of mind (would I really  be described by anyone I know as possessing a state of mind?) but at the moment that was my self described moniker !!

    I like TAB a lot better now :-)

  • Voltaire said on Mar 03, 2009....
    Hello Fraggle (Ok if I call you this?)

    My nick of Voltaire, is simple, during the age of enlightenment Voltaire was one of those who criticized their society and way's to think.

    That's just what I want to reach, to get you to think while I criticize out modern society. Some might think I'm fanatical, no I'm not, I just put it in a different way then many would write it. I get better effect that way I hope.

    I don't have a description as I feel my goals are clear enough should you enter my blog and read a bit. I will add one today, just for the sake of it though.

    Best of Wishes,
    Voltaire


  • writergrrl said on Oct 24, 2009....

    Well I feel mine is quite obvious and not really exciting.

    The 'Writer' in 'Writergrrl' comes from the fact that ever since I was little I have always wanted to be a writer. And the 'grrl' comes from the fact that I'm a girl (obviously).

    Come to thing of it, it kinda sounds like some literary superhero- where my pad and pen are my suit of armor and my words are my weapons...

Friends with funny names

hairbrushedhubby posted 7 days ago | views: 34 | Tags: silly, names, TAG-O-MATIC
I have two friends who have funny names, and I was wondering if any of you know anyone with one as well.
Remember, real ones not made up.

My first is Rob Graves, and believe it or not, he has a cousin called Doug Graves.
My second... read entire post 2 comments
