So, it's been mentioned to me I use real names instead of code names more often than some people like. For the record, I am called Matty by my friends. If you object to being called by your legal name, I just want to know so I don't make an asshole out of myself.

If I minded you using it, you wouldn't KNOW my legal name. Still at least online I prefer going by the Bat selection of names even if you DO know.

I am #6. I am not a robot.

Bats, I just call you Bruce in my head. J, I just think of you as muse's sister.

Guys, I will just say that I don't try to be a complete dick. I wrote this to try to get ahead of my stupid shit.

Being autistic is weird, man. I've been dealing with it my whole life and I try really hard but it's somewhat challenging. It usually works better when I just ask what people want and they tell me.

I'll give myself a little credit: My little sister is autistic, too, and compared to my behavior: Whoa Nelly. You think I'M bad news, allow me to introduce you.

I don't know what my real name is, mistakes were made on my birth certificate and there's a conspiracy in my family where everyone refers to me by my middle name. I'm beginning to think I'm the one who was switched at birth, not my brother like we've always believed.

^ This. So far I've managed to avoid blowing my cover on boards where I post anonymously.

muse, you know how I feel about you. I have some identity issues happening too. The parents who raised me aren't my genetic ones. I get angry sometimes and do some dumb stuff with my abilities. I've made a bunch of bad decisions, but I've saved a few lives too. "I've been a sinner, I've been a saint. I've done both good and evil deeds. But in the end, I was good to my friends. And that's good enough for me." --Aurellio Voltaire

And Broom, it's good to see you again. You were disappeared for too long. Are you okay? I respect you and that's why I asked. I wanted an honest answer from everybody.

You guys don't actually think a guy like me would go by the name of one of authors of the gospels? My friends call me Saint Matthew.

I'm just naughty by nature. I'm that kind type of creature. I love knives, but I never take lives. I like to fight but I never hate. It's just a sport to me. I am good but not great.

Yes, we know all about your love of crazy women, and my sister is certifiably insane...

I've had some issues, both with getting back on the board and with my health. I've covered most of it in the recent venting thread. I will be OK.

Facts.

Everyone knows your real name is Count Weiner Schnitzel Humperdinck, 2nd High Lord of the 5th Bavarian Kingdom of Dinks.

Or so that is what I WANT everybody to believe. Besides, you spelled Wiener wrong.

I did not spell it wrong! It's E before I unless after L. You know, like Keith, weird, receive, and believe. Weiner! Weiner! Weiner!

In ENGLISH. 'Wiener Schnitzel' is a GERMAN language term.

Why are we having an argument about weiners?

Why wouldn't we? THIS IS SPAR- Um, I mean, STARDESTROYER!!!

So, fun story: My name on the street (haha, not really, though the cops did ask me about it once in an echo of Ron White's Tater Salad story) became "El Tiburon" one day when I was asked by a friend known here as My First Regular to go with him to a tense meeting. The other guys were like, "Que la chingata es eso hombre?"* And my buddy improvised, "Eso hombre? Es El Tiburon. No sabe El Tiburon?" I was like (soto voce) "El Tiburon?" "Shut up man, it sounds cool!" And they totally bought it! Like I'm some kind of bad motherfucker hitman/bodyguard they should know about (which I'm not) We laughed our asses off later.

* - Translation: "Who the fuck is that guy?" "That guy? It's The Shark. You don't know The Shark?"

On a completely unrelated topic, do I really want to know what's going on with Sesame Street?
I believe the kids would say "Elmo is based AF"

The question is, do you even KNOW my real name?

I've always hated Elmo. OG Sesame Street characters all had an educational purpose. Big Bird is a curious child who asks questions so the adults can answer them. Grover is a fucking idiot who makes mistakes. Kermit is a loving father/brother figure with high empathy. Cookie Monster is the Id embodied: A bad example. Oscar the Grouch is a homeless guy with feelings and a great relationship with his best friend, Slimy the Worm. Bert and Ernie are a monogamous gay couple who bicker a little but are clearly decent members of society. Elmo only exists to sell toys.

I think Elmo's supposed to be a communist, they're mocking Communism by using a red puppet to sell toys.

Elmos supposed to be the muppet equal of a preschooler. (According to google)

Sure, but what purpose does that serve when we already have the much less shrill and obnoxious Big Bird asking the childish questions?
