If it's Friday, then Wendell must be having another identity crisis! →[More:]After the Old Wendell/New Wendell brouhahaha, I probably shouldn't go anywhere near something like this, but I'm wondering if I should get a 2nd MeFi account with the name "cyst valley". It would be an inevitable failure as a 'sock puppet', but still... if only to prevent somebody else from using it and causing confusion. I'm unsure enough of myself.

BTW, I did briefly consider registering "wendell classic" whether or not I had 'sold my identity'... that's just the way I am

wait, are you "new wendell"? Because I'm experiencing significant brand confusion. Talk to Wendy in Marketing about simplifying your campaign.

"if only to prevent somebody else from using it " ummmhmmm.

wendell I think you just like to register things like domains and nicknames. You are like someone who buys shoes they will never wear.

arse_hat gets it. :)

I have had issues with 'branding' ever since a childhood accident down on the farm with a branding iron.

Wendell, nobody writes like you. Relax.

BTW, isn't "brouhaha" just the most delightful word? Imagine the announcer for "Rocky and Bullwinkle" saying it....

One can never have too many sock puppets.
