Essentially, I want us to sound like cavemen.

I'll start:

HomesliceAbe was playing Mario kart and HomesliceAbe's dad couldn't think of name of one of courses (HomesliceAbe thinks name was "Moonview Highway?). HomesliceAbe's dad called course "Homeslice Highway" and HomesliceAbe thought new name was hilarious. Also, HomesliceAbe is big fan of Abraham Lincoln.

[–] thelsim@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Thelsim likes the sound of Thelsim’s own name, so Thelsim approves of this question :)
Thelsim is a unique enough name, if you see Thelsim somewhere else, there’s a good chance it is Thelsim.
Thelsim thought it up on the spot and kind of identifies with it now. It’s vague and genderless enough to apply to anyone and can still be remembered as a normal name. It’s become Thelsim’s online identity.
Caveman enough for not-Thelsim? :)

IRC nicks were max'd at 8 characters and listed alphabetically. Given that dogs are no-go!, to choose name that made full use was simple.

Edit: See some fails in this thread.
