In the months I've been here, I've been called many things. FToad, FToaS, Toad, Flaming, Toad, Flaming toad on a stick, oh immolated one etc. My screen name has also been used in derogatory ways e.g.;"toads such as yourself" and "stupid ignorant toad".
If anyone really cares, y'all can really just call me Toad, or Alex. You don't need to come up with weird acronyms for my screen name.(Yeah, I know, that's half the fun.)
Anyway, just having some fun at this ungodly hour.
Toad
P.S., BTW(LOL) My screen name comes from a play I co-wrote/acted in. I played a recorder player in a garage band. One of the names we tossed around as a band name was Flaming Toad on a Stick.
P.P.S.(pwnge) What does your screen name mean?

But I shall call you Alex. Nice to meet you. My name is not, as many people think, Evie. It is in fact Abby.

No worries rivka. I think a lot of people forget, and I honestly don't mind being called Evie.

Thank you, Alex, for the explanation of your screen name--I have wondered! (now whether I'll remember Alex is another story, but I should be able to remember "Toad" ;-)
Reminds me of El JT de Spang's landmark beginning "Call me JT." Helpful info!
As for my screenname--it means I was used to going by Kris(VA) on a couple of other forums, but then I moved away from Virginia and didn't know if I was moving back or where I was going to end up, so I just went with Uprooted!

Search the threads for Sasha anyone who doesn't know why I truly love that name.
FG, there is a ventriloquist who is quite hilarious. One of his puppets is a Jalepeno, on a stick. Throughout the routine, the puppet keeps adding "on a stick" to just about anything else said.

but I thought she got it from some comedian/ventrioloquist or something.
Has she been reading any Terry Pratchett lately? There's a street vendor called Cut-Me-Own-Hand-Off Dibbler who sells various things on a stick.

Yeah -- I think that's the one. She talks about him and Jalepeno and is always mimicking them. I haven't seen it, personally.

Oh skewered and fricaseed amphibian friend, your screenname has always inspired me to refer to you with elaborate descriptive phrases. However, if you prefer, henceforth, I shall endeavor to call you Alex.
