My name is a reference to the Boston Red Sox...?

Well, I'm new so nobody cares, but it's a play on words-- Faerie Godmother and the Godfather. As in "The Winter Court is going to make you can offer you can't refuse".

Abgemacht is, of course, a german phrase. Just use google, man.

I agree with Delta's suggestion.

This is where we need the -1, abge... just for this one alone.

Dan, couple things, first, a single word isn't a phrase. Second, not everything is googlable. Try googling draugnar and you'll just find a bunch of posts on corvette sites and cigar sites amd an amazon review of a james bond movie by a guy named bob. Third, where is Ajax code for 'a'? I know military and airlines use alpha, and police use Adam, who uses Ajax?

These are the things that keep me up at night.

And since you already googled angemacht, save me the effort and tell me what it means auf deutsch

Bosox, I thought it was a play on Botox. See its not as obvious as you think. And -1 for your -1 comment fucktard (tm draugnar)

*ahem*

"See its not as obvious as you think."

No, it really is. Sorry.

Saw a guy at church wearing a shirt that said "Yes, I'm one of those crazy Episcopalians". Between then and joining this site I moved to the Anglican Church. Hence Crazy Anglican. Side note: Since then I've joined the Methodist Church, so I guess Mad Methodist would be more accurate.

See...the -1 is catching on.

The 48 could mean something. You post enough inane shit on here to not give philcore crap for this thread.

@abgemacht, why the clarification? I didn't misunderstand you the first time. Its still a bad suggestion, whether you agree with it or not. Just cause it might work for your name, doesn't mean it'll work for sbyvl. And People like to talk about themselves, look at the A/S/O/L thread. Way more intrusive than a question about your name, yet people were glad to share ( including myself, btw ) so share or ignore, don't make a shit to me.

Someone hasn't had sex in 26 years.

@phil

Yeah, but he was just suggesting you google me in particular. That's why I AGREED with him, so that one of the names you were wondering about could be SETTLED.

My username is from a creative writing class I took back in high school. For a group project, we came up with a duck as the main character of our story, and at one point in the narrative, as a play on "ducky wucky," we had "dubby wubby" as an epithet for the duck. Anyway, the "dub" part comes from that, the "dell" comes from the location of the duck's hometown, and finally, instead of "give 'em hell," the main character is encouraged at one point to "dub 'm dell."

I also joined the site with a group of friends, hence, I chose an inside joke without thinking of the lysdexic repercussions. :P

@botox: "No, it really is. Sorry."

Oh you got me there. I'm convinced now.

Glad you've seen the light.

bo_sox, shut the fuck up. http://i.imgur.com/U9mt72m.png

I saw dub's name.. lemme guess, he's +1 whoring again?

@dubmdell - yours was another I was curious about. Good story. Thanks for sharing that completely Un-googlable explanation. I really thought it was a mistyping of dumbbell :-). I've probably even called you that before in a reply.

There's was a mod back in the day whose real name I still don't know but for a similar reason I always saw it as crispymints. Perhaps if I knew the rationale behind his name I would have said it differently in my mind. But he'll always be crispymints to me :-)

That was Chrispminis. I'm pretty sure it was just a contraction of his name.

@abgemacht: "Yeah, but he was just suggesting you google me in particular. That's why I AGREED with him, so that one of the names you were wondering about could be SETTLED."

I wasn't really asking about your name in particular. I was trying to give those who have interesting stories about why they chose the name they did an opportunity to share those stories. Yours was just one example of the few that came to mind. Googling what it means in German doesn't tell me why you chose it. That's what I'm more interested in.

Agreed. Abgemacht means Agreed. Because you agree to stuff in Diplomacy.

Chrispminis! That was him. What ever happened to him?
And dingleberry jones! by the way jimgov, as far as my memory serves, dingle was the one who started the -1 thing back in the day.

And what about jimgov, yellbells, hecks and ghug? What's the story there?

"Agreed. Abgemacht means Agreed."

Dude, you totally need to start just posting your own name (and nothing else) at the end of a forum discussion where you've reached common ground. That would be pretty sweet. Like, "Steve Holt!"

@abgemacht: ok that was funny now that you've explained it +1 for that. You capped AGREED every time you responded as a clue ... Nice!

He moved on, as people are wont to do. Haven't seen Jones in years, either.
