How did you get your handle or user name?

@Ku-winda
Mines pretty self explanatory. I'm a Whelen tragic and love promoting it at any chance I get so I'm told.
I think 243 HATER would have been a bit much and may have given people the idea that I think it's a horrible little cartridge. Oh that's right I do.

The Whelen is a bit like me,
Misunderstood, and underrated, but has a lot of good qualities. Gets in gets the job done without the fanfare and goes home.

You forget outdated, unpopular, grumpy, confusing, intolerant, and non-conforming. I don’t want to make this personal, so I left out the unattractive part… Figuratively; I meant.

Plus there is this:

The top euphemisms we use for vagina:​

1. Down There
2. Bits
3. Vag
4. Downstairs
5. The Whelen
6. Lady Bits
7. Minge
8. Private Parts
9. Vajayjay
10. Vagine.

[towserthemouser]

Towser was a tortoise shell cat who lived at the Glenturret Distillery in Scotland. She was renowned for her prowess as a mouser; in fact she holds the Guiness book record and was statistically estimated to have dispatched 28,899 mice over the course of her 24 year career.

My screen name pays respect to this legendary hunter (huntress).

 

[odonata]

When I was growing up in the swampy land of south Louisiana, there were always dragonflies hovering in the backyard. I thought they were a really cool insect. Years later as a computer programmer, I chose the Latin classification odonata for dragonflies & damselflies as my handle. A lot of the older Unix & mainframe systems I worked on limited a username to 8 characters or less so it was a good fit. Over the decades, it eventually became my alias on non-technical sites as well.

Well,

You can hang sh!t on Bob he has broad shoulders. Must be carrying some weight now cause I’m always keen to wind him up.

As for Vaginas I missed how they came into the conversation. I could add some words perhaps I should leave that one alone.

I have called Bob a lot of things but I have never called him. A C,,,!

It was a reference to his rifle…
Not himself.

Well, maybe the grumpy part

@NIGHTHAWK
I'm glad you only chose my good qualities.
I would hate to think of what you would have rit fer my bad qualities.
My wife says I'm the only male she knows that can multitask.
I can talk and piss people off at the same time.
But my most endearing quality is despite all my good points I'm
STILL LOVEABLE.
HA HA HA HA HA HA HA

@NIGHTHAWK
I'm glad you included the Whelen in the description of vaginas.
Any red blooded male knows how useful and how much fun you can have with that part of the female anatomy. Dang some even find it good to look at as well.
To include the Whelen in the description is high praise indeed.

What can a prostitute do that a drug dealer can't do.
Wash her crack and resell it.

Stay tuned grasshopper but do not be drinking when you read my reply. You may spay it everywhere before you have a laugh.

[Texas Sharpshooter Fallacy]

Enjoyed this thread. Somehow missed it earlier...

Texas sharpshooter fallacy is a scientific concept based on the story about a Texan that fires off a bunch of shots at the side of a barn and then paints the target around the closest holes. Thus, declaring himself a sharpshooter.

The scientific fallacy is when you overemphasize the similarities and ignore differences. See what you want to see instead of what actually is. A funny reminder to stay humble and know that we can be just as good at tricking ourselves as we are fooling others. I'm not a scientist, just like the story.
