In the months I've been here, I've been called many things. FToad, FToaS, Toad, Flaming, Toad, Flaming toad on a stick, oh immolated one etc. My screen name has also been used in derogatory ways e.g.;"toads such as yourself" and "stupid ignorant toad".
If anyone really cares, y'all can really just call me Toad, or Alex. You don't need to come up with weird acronyms for my screen name.(Yeah, I know, that's half the fun.)
Anyway, just having some fun at this ungodly hour.
Toad
P.S., BTW(LOL) My screen name comes from a play I co-wrote/acted in. I played a recorder player in a garage band. One of the names we tossed around as a band name was Flaming Toad on a Stick.
P.P.S.(pwnge) What does your screen name mean?

Alex it is.

I thought Jerome would be more distinguished.
Posted by ClaudiaTherese (Member # 923) on :
Alex is a simply smashing name. Posted by Flaming Toad on a Stick (Member # 9302) on :
Why thank you.

Sara is a rather beautiful name as well, I must say.

Can I call you late for dinner?
Posted by Evie3217 (Member # 5426) on :
"Call me an unrestrained arsewit if you like" "Maybe later"
But I shall call you Alex. Nice to meet you. My name is not, as many people think, Evie. It is in fact Abby.
Posted by Flaming Toad on a Stick (Member # 9302) on :
A pleasure to meet you as well, Abby.

I know this, but I always forget.
Oh, and I changed my mind. I believe I shall address Alex as Will.
Posted by Evie3217 (Member # 5426) on :
No worries rivka. I think a lot of people forget, and I honestly don't mind being called Evie.

Nice to meet you Alex "Toad". Btw, your screen name is fracking brilliant, regardless of it's origins Posted by Dr Strangelove (Member # 8331) on :
Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die.
Posted by Farmgirl (Member # 5567) on :
My daughter has taken to lately putting the phrase "on a stick" as a suffix to almost everything she says. "That is coolness- on a stick!".
but I thought she got it from some comedian/ventrioloquist or something.
Either way, it's cool.

Thank you, Alex, for the explanation of your screen name--I have wondered! (now whether I'll remember Alex is another story, but I should be able to remember "Toad" ;-)
Reminds me of El JT de Spang's landmark beginning "Call me JT." Helpful info!
As for my screenname--it means I was used to going by Kris(VA) on a couple of other forums, but then I moved away from Virginia and didn't know if I was moving back or where I was going to end up, so I just went with Uprooted!
Posted by Dan_raven (Member # 3383) on :
Alex, in Russian, is Sasha.
Search the threads for Sasha anyone who doesn't know why I truly love that name.
FG, there is a ventriloquist who is quite hilarious. One of his puppets is a Jalepeno, on a stick. Throughout the routine, the puppet keeps adding "on a stick" to just about anything else said.

Is "Flamer" ok?

Has she been reading any Terry Pratchett lately? There's a street vendor called Cut-Me-Own-Hand-Off Dibbler who sells various things on a stick.

Wow my name is also Alex and I had no idea it was Sasha in Russian. That is awesome.
....cool name. Posted by Dagonee (Member # 5818) on :
Thank you for the clarification, What You Will.

Yeah -- I think that's the one. She talks about him and Jalepeno and is always mimicking them. I haven't seen it, personally.

Can I call you "Oh Immolated Alex?" I like to take any excuse I can to use the word 'immolated'

Blast! You beat me!
But I shall also refer to you as "What You Will."

Posted by Tante Shvester (Member # 8202) on :
Tante means Aunt Shvester means Sister.
I am both an aunt and a sister, and I have some people who call me Tante and some who call me Shvester.
I also go by Esther, which rhymes with Shvester.
Tante, by the way, rhymes with "want a", not with Dante.

That'd be Jeff Dunham, whose show is available on DVD. Posted by aspectre (Member # 2222) on :
I dunno, what. What if everyone started talking like "Call me Yoda you will"? Then there's the absurd* "Who's on first" problem.

Oh skewered and fricaseed amphibian friend, your screenname has always inspired me to refer to you with elaborate descriptive phrases. However, if you prefer, henceforth, I shall endeavor to call you Alex.
