All right, admit it. You do a name search on your userhandle either daily, or at least weekly.
C'mon. Don't make me raise my hand at you for lying in front of Jesus and everyone.
(I would like to say that it is entirely appropriate that I start this thread as no one else could do it justice like I have. And while the content may be scanty - or another word that sounds like 'scanty' but has a much more positive connotation [but I can't think of it right now] - the quality is superb.)

I think the problem we're having so far is that no egomaniac wants to post in a thread started by someone else. Unless it's some hapless newbie that they can kick around and shift the topic back to something more interesting. Namely, me.

I can't do that, Toni, cause everyone calls me T. And as far as searching for Nathan goes, I don't. HOWEVER, I do know when you people are talking about me. I have spies. And I know where you sleep.

I find the best way to draw attention to myself is to be a combination of paranoid, sexy, lightheartedly funny and sneaky. I call it parsexfunneaky. That, and just say random things like I can lick your nose.

I also admire the random violence and cryptic response school. Simultaneously Kafkaesque and minimalist.

Whenever I worry that I have too many posts for how long I've been here, I can always think of fallow.

I am SO tempted to tag almost every thread with a one-word post, just to play with Ralphie's results.
I have to admit that last week or a few weeks ago or whenever that day was where my name was in the subject line of three threads on the first page was pretty dang cool.
But saxy still wins that contest. *pout*

I have to admit, kat, I think the use of "Zoolander" as an adjective is pretty funny. You should use that for your landmark avoidance handle.

There's too much Annas in this world : I never searched but I'm sure there won't be anything about me. *opens a google page to check*

Yep. Evrerything is about Anna Kournikova With my real name there is something I wrote when I was studying. And with my AIM name there are links to forums I posted in just one or two times.

Cool word! I discovered those mechanical pencils with the gel-filled comfort grips and went absolutely nuts.

Geez I never thought of doing such a thing if that tells you anything of the size of my own ego. But now I am wondering if I should be doing a name search.
Which means that I should probably be starting a thread titled "A thread for, and About, Neurotic, Paranoid Sociopaths".
quote: RAIN MARIE SMITH Industrial Engineer Pretty Products Inc. Division of Lancaster Colony Corp. Coshocton, Ohio
The best thing about being an IE is that I can work to improve just about any area of my company, either alone or as part of a team. I can accomplish anything I want -- possibly including my ultimate goal of eliminating my own job -- and still have plenty of interesting work.

From this post on, I am going to include Ralphies name at the end of every post, just to throw her off.

"Hey, you got your Egomania in my Superiority Complex!"
"Ahhh! You got some of your Superiority Complex all over my Egomania!
(pause)
Both: "Hey, this is great!"
(OK, you have to be over thirty-five to get the reference, and it may only be funny to me, but there you have it.)

With everyone else, it is egomania and a superiority complex, but with me....it is my inate, God given right to rule over the peons from high atop my golden thrown.
Now, who brought me my donuts this morning?
P.S. Yes, I will show my age by saying that I am over 35 and got the Reese's joke.

I search for my name hourly, but friggin' mackillian screws up my searches by throwing alot of duds around.

"I got the Reese's reference, and I'm way younger than you people."
Hmmph. I think it just means you watch retro tv commercials from the 70's so you can be more like us. You know you want to be in our clique, Ralphie, so just admit it. We are older, and have far more years of ego than you.

Weren't those actually early-eighties? And I was aboot in the seventies.
Of course, regarding the ego issue: It's quality, not quantity, dammit. I don't think anyone around here would argue that my ego is quality. With a 'q'.

The "chocolate in my peanut butter" commercials continued through 1986. I'd imagine that anyone over the age of 25 probably remembers them well.
