cryptique Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 No, I really do know the answer ~ it's because you quoted yourself in your signature. Simple as that. Anybody who puts their own name in their sig is worthy of some spankin.It's really asking for it when the quote itself is not of high quality. There's someone on another board I frequent whose sig is the phrase "what is what," attributed to himself. That's been begging for mockery for a long time now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jdmel Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 It's really asking for it when the quote itself is not of high quality. There's someone on another board I frequent whose sig is the phrase "what is what," attributed to himself. That's been begging for mockery for a long time now. In my defense, I was not quoting myself. It was a signature, it was meant as a joke, which leads me to: The origin of The ShuaAs for "what is theshua?" - its a joke with some friends of mine, I know this girl whos a wannabe hippie and not coincidentally a total fool.. anyway a group of us went to a Ben Harper concert and after she randomly said "if my name was Joshua I would totally make people call me the Shua..." so as an inside joke, making fun of her, people would say hey shua sarcastically.. It's all about having a sense of humor about yourself... i think it was misinterpreted in the context on this board as I was some frat boy asshole who referred to himself in the third person, not the case.

welch79 Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 dearest theshua: your story about how you came up with your name is funny. i appreciate you taking the time to explain it. now, lighten up a bit. i don't think anybody hates you here...this isn't really that type of place. i think some dudes are just ribbing you a bit b/c you are reacting to it like you are. roll with it and laugh at yourself a bit. of course this is just my take and opinion. you can do whatever with it. ~welch79 (sorry, couldn't resist) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ok, I thought it might have been to do with some Baseball Player or other, and, as I am from the UK, I was missing the point. Now I understand a little better. Speaking about yourself in the third person is fine with me; keep it up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Stewart Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 Speaking about yourself in the third person is fine with joss ackland's spunky backpack; keep it up.Fixed it.In other news, theshua's The Shua story was funny. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Synthesizer Patel Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 My name is too long to use in that manner, but I will make a compromise and say, "one thinks" or "one is of the opinion" or somesuch, in the future. Deal? If it's good enough for the Queen, then it's good enough for me too. Either that, or I have to change my name again. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

So let me get this straight -- you are upset, thinking that you are being dissed and picked on, and yet you defend yourself by telling a story in which you are dissing and picking on someone else?

the Salt Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 I know someone here in Utah (Salt Lake area) has a "WILCO" plate... He passed my by one night as I was listening to Sky Blue Sky. I thought... if that guy only new what I had in my CD player right now.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Synthesizer Patel Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 Are you the former Big Bank Hank? Yeah. I think people may have thought that was a boast. Lots of people did think I was called Hank, I know that for a fact. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jdmel Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 now, lighten up a bit. i don't think anybody hates you here...this isn't really that type of place. i think some dudes are just ribbing you a bit b/c you are reacting to it like you are. I wasnt taking it that way at all... its funny though because this is exactly where a post about license plates would lead haha Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bobbob1313 Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 Yeah. I think people may have thought that was a boast. Lots of people did think I was called Hank, I know that for a fact.

Synthesizer Patel Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 Why does Joss Ackland have a spunky backpack anyway?Is there some perversion to this story? it comes from this: it's an alternative name from the 'made-up' drug - cake!

Calexico Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 The Day Today and Brass Eye were some of the best comedy to come out of England ever. He is like Terence Malick, only comes out every once in a while and then slays people with his stuff. Top notch! I am off to work with a smile on my face and a spunky backpack.
