Being reminded of the UKFF in real life

[Loki]

I do miss signatures, they were fun but in the end people took the piss with the size of them.

Speaking of now-very-old-jokes, there's a number of our esteemed members still carrying joke names from that weird name swopping thing we did that resulted in a not of gay and Dad names, such as Gay Dad, Daaad, and I think @Gay as FOOK from that same incident.  Might it be time for an amnesty on some of those?

I think we've established that there's absolutely nothing stopping those people from signing up with a new name if they don't like them...

I can't really offer anything else though.

Thanks for calling attention to this! It's something that's genuinely only started popping into me mind over the last few months logging in. It was a BRILL joke for years but yeah...fuck that. Shame a new account is the only way to go about it but I may pull the trigger on that. Who cares about post count anyway. It's all about upvo - 

- wait, what are we basing this on anymore? I'd drop the pretence but it might get damaged. 

Edit: Also admittedly when I see @FelatioLips flying the flag for shit name changes it sort of puts me back in my place.

Still don’t go on here in public. Been living in fear for a decade.

@Bicurious Dad is the other name from that name change "hilarity" that I see regularly, I have to admit I don't remembe people's previous names though.  I guess whatever power was used to change those names in the first place no longer exists.  It's a miracle Invision even still exists I suppose.

Walked past Sports Direct today. Even thinking of the place reminds me of here.

I don’t mind the name change so much (I was a victim twice), helps people forget that I was a mafia scum wanker back in the day….

If @Moo just, y'know, set someone else up as an administrator then people wouldn't have to set up a new account.

It's currently one of the most popular shows on TV, so I maintain we were just ahead of our time.

Seems like the sort of thing a traitor would say.

I don't think enough time has passed yet for the Mafia Scum wankers to feel comfortable in the general populace. 10 more years should do it.

Talk of the Mafia threads and Mike Castle just reminds me of when somebody asked for recommendations for somewhere nice to eat and Mike Castle suggested Wetherspoons.

I think of that any time the topic of recommendations for places to go when visiting a new town comes up, in any context.

When, with any luck, I’ll be dead.

2 things Keet. 1. You are not that lucky, and 2 your never ending capacity to flog a joke to death will not allow you to die. Like Tantalus you will forever reach for the low hanging fruit but never grab it.
