smezzer [Edit] [Delete] 132 replies 14:08, 11 May '07

would you change it? and what to?

the concept "smezzer" has too much prestige to abandon now, but if i did i'd go for something classy and intelligent like "luvs2spooge"

                                    'Crash'. Numerous reasons - rugby moves, old teachers with the same name as me, I used to 'crash' cigs/sweets/booze of others quite a bit.

                                    Also my email is 'rocketcrash@......'. So all in all it would be pretty simple to remember for websites.

                                Still, I could be left with something much, much worse...

                                everytime i see it i feel it is but a shadow of what it could have been had i not just chosen to title of the song i was listening to when i signed up.

                                wish I could remember why I chose it though, really do.

                                aside from the fact it's shit, it's too long which means i can't edit my profile or anything.

                                now i'd probably have some awful injoke about some obscure record only 3 people would ever get and even then not find it particularly funny.

                                  but it's taken me two years to build up what small trace of a name for myself I have on these boards and I can't be arsed to start from scratch!

                                  to be blunt. Though its not great for secret identity.

                                  I suppose I could have used my full name but that'd be a tad pretentious.

                                  or something
