MetaFilter

What's the deal with your nickname? How did you get it? If your nickname is self-explanatory, then tell everyone when you first started using the internet, and what was the first thing that made you say "wow, this isn't just a place for freaks after all?" Was it a website? Was it an email from a long-lost friend? Go on, spill it.

Liberal gadfly, zen bastard, connoisseur of schadenfreude. Do not lecture me about the Deep Cynicism; I was there when it was written.

Often crude, sometimes censored, but mostly harmless. If I've offended you, please hold for the next available operator: there are [37] callers ahead of you.

MetaFilter needs a profile counter for "__ dark humor comments deleted." A more consistent basis for deleting actual relevant comments to political threads would also be nice, but maybe next year's Secret Quonsar will deliver that.
