How long are the usernames like this? It's cute, but it's been a long time since I got to socialize with you all. I miss you :-(

We're still here. We're just in disguise.

I miss you too, and I was just about to ask where you've been all this time. Big hugs.

yeah, just pretend you're Tom Cruise in "Eyes Wide MetaShut".
Uh...

posted by Hellbient 17 May | 10:52

Yeah this is kind of weird.

I'm a newbie to mecha, but under this disguise I can say this without being identifiably lame: I think you guys are cool and I want to be your friend!

You excavated them in a way that looks like steps?

posted by jrossi4r 17 May | 11:09

This could be my big chance to step out of my shell and be sociable.

But it won't be.

I'm a newbie too!

I lurk a lot on MeCha. I don't own a bunny, so I'm not cool enough to hang out with all of you fun bunnies! :)

Tomorrow all the usernames will be changed to agropyron.

Are you a bunny?

posted by warbaby 17 May | 11:27

Hah.

It's true...my name does not lie. I don't own a television.

...is MeCha stalking me?

posted by carabiner 17 May | 11:27

I didn't see anyone post this in another thread, but I just figured out a ridiculously simple way to find out who's posted what. I won't spill it, because I don't want to spoil the fun. But OMG I AM A NERD.

Thanks, I'll let myself out.

Yours,
Nerd Jesus

Do I get one?

No, that's ok.

The novelty of this is wearing off.

Cool, I just figured it out too, Nerd Jesus. :) Thanks for the tip.

posted by agropyron 17 May | 11:45

Ah. I sussed it too. /me laughs at people thinking they're anonymous. (Like I just did. Foo-el).

posted by Lotto 17 May | 11:45

Oh wait! I did! This is the best thing ever!

posted by drezdn 17 May | 11:49

Remember, Nerd Jesus is also the one who figured out how to send himself Valentine messages. While we're talking about not having a life. OMG CLEAVAR!

posted by Eideteker 17 May | 11:49

It was kinda obvious how to figure out who posted what though.

posted by weretable and the undead chairs 17 May | 12:00

I can't figure it out. Blah.

posted by rainbaby 17 May | 12:08

Just look at userpages and view their comments to see who is who. Sorta a pain, but it works.

posted by weretable and the undead chairs 17 May | 12:22

I actually really hate this. It's frustrating and confusing, and not all that fun. I'm all for subversive, but I'm not up for feeling sabotaged today.

Happy birthday, though, Mecha, and since it seems like most people find this fun, let me be the first to tell myself to relax a little. Go with the flow, big asshole.

I just wish I could be myself, is all.

posted by Hugh Janus 17 May | 12:28

I am totally fatigued and out of sorts. I just had too much cake at the party, now I have to go home. Happy Birthday everybunny!

posted by rainbaby 17 May | 12:40

For those who are saying things they normally wouldn't under the cloak of anonymity, I wonder whether all the names will go back to normal for their posts when the site is set back to normal. So watch what you say.

Ceiling cat ate my balls and your teeth feel distinctly different.

Me too!

posted by ThePinkSuperhero 17 May | 14:15

Not me. I think it's great and a lot of fun and I suspect quite a bit of work went into it. Suck it up for a day, nu?

Like I said,

Sounds to me like sucking it up, but thanks for the reminder.

posted by Hugh Janus 17 May | 15:08

Wasn't referring to you, go-flowing big asshole, whoever you are! You were very gracious in your profession of confusion. Was referring to the few comments above mine.

Love,
Suck it up for a day.

posted by mudpuppie 17 May | 15:12

Oh, okay. I just hope you weren't rubbing anyone else's nose in their discomfort, either. After all, there are only a few comments in which folks admit to not liking it (or agree with me in my admission), and nobody likes to be told to suck it up.

And with regard to who the big asshole is, just like that French schmuck said in that crappy movie, Highlander, "Zere can be awnley wan!"

posted by Hugh Janus 17 May | 15:27

Should be pretty amusing tomorrow to see who posted what today, huh?

posted by chewatadistance 17 May | 15:37

*has no idea what the fuck you are all carrying on about*

Situation normal.
