THEREALME


Hi,

I recently joined this site (which is great, by the way!).

After a great deal of thought, I came up with a cool alias: "The Real Me", from War Stories, of course.

I typed it in and it took, great! But I typed it in CAPITALS!

When I went to try to change it to mixed case (so as not to shout), I discovered that "TheRealMe" has already been taken by someone.

Ooops! Sorry!

So, is TheRealMe still active here? If so, I will relinquish the name and spend some days to think of another one.

Thanks!


THEREALME, not to be confused with TheRealMe

It changes everything to caps. TheRealMe is taken, because you're THEREALME.

Yes, it changes everything to caps, which caused a bit of confusion about my own name when I arrived... some wondered if it was Badger's Hat, or perhaps Badger Shat, or perhaps Badger S Hat...

(It's Badger's Hat, by the way)

And now I wish I knew how to say "bottom's up" in Chinese. Wonder if it translates well?

Yikes, hope it's Beaujolais Nouveau at least. Otherwise I can't imagine what it would be.

IAC, the equivalent of "bottom's up" in Chinese is
"Gan1 Bei1" - literally means "Dry Cup" or "Dry Glass". The usual ritual is to say the phrase while hoisting the vessel with both hands, then draining the cup of its contents with one large gulp or as few gulps as possible. About the same as what you might expect.

So what you are all saying is that I am the REAL "TheRealMe"?

Excellent! Or should I say "shiny"?

I was afraid that I was NotTheRealMe, or TheOtherRealMe, or something like that.

Thanks a lot for the kind welcome.

Well, bottom's up! (in a Chinese-like fashion)

Ah!
