What does your screen name mean?
    #2444302 - 03/17/04 05:59 PM (20 years, 6 days ago)

So whats the story behind everyone's screen names? 

Mine, well...my real name is Michelle, so I just sort of did a twisted/semi-backwards version of it, Ellemysh and then added Shade since I was going through a dark time in my life when I first joined the shroomery. 

How bout everyone else??  :stoned:

actually i dont know why i started to use this sceenname, it started on irc and now im shriek all over the place, if you see a shriek anywhere on the net its most likely to be me, so that is a good reason in itself to still use it, not met anyone that uses this screen name either.

temperance n.
1. Habitual moderation in regard to the indulgence of the natural appetites and passions; restrained or moderate indulgence; moderation; as, temperance in eating and drinking; temperance in the indulgence of joy or mirth; specifically, moderation


This is my username/screenname for a few reasons. The first is that the Temperance card in the tarot deck always stood out to me.

The second is that I read one time in a "new age" name interpretation book (after taking a deep interest in the Temperance card and using 'temperance' as a username elsewhere) that in Qabbalistic beliefs, the Temperance card is associated with the first name Nicole. That is my first name.

And the third is that moderation is something I very much strive toward and is and always has been an important symbol in my life.

Sorry for the life story :wink:

I made up "trendal" 5 or 6 years ago to use as a character name in a MUD I used to play on. It's a word play on the word "trend". I wanted it to sound fantasyish :smirk:

I actually wrote an essay a while back that more or less explains it. I'm sure this is more than anyone wants to read, but too bad:

The Superconducting Super Collider would have been the world's largest, most powerful particle accelerator. Even the Large Hadron Collider under construction at CERN in Geneva, Switzerland will not be near as powerful as the SSC was planned to be. No doubt many of the questions on the minds of physicists today would have been answered already if the SSC was online. Congress canceled funding for the SSC in 1993, after significant progress to build it had already been made.

Most people had never heard of the project and didn't miss it. They don't even really understand what a particle accelerator is, or why it might be relevant to their lives. Some who are not interested in the study of physics criticize the building of accelerators on the grounds that they are expensive and require great quantities of power to operate. People interested in modern physics, however, know that when we truly figure out how this universe works?when we account for every particle that must theoretically exist, solve the unification of forces, answer the questions of cosmology, etc., it will be due to the results of an accelerator experiment.

Jacques Ellul said, ?There are no political solutions, only technological ones; the rest is propaganda.?

Some people like to think that these questions are unanswerable. After all, never in human history have we truly and completely solved any puzzle--learned all there is to know about anything. Yet now we face the possibility of understanding the basic elements of the universe. This is not unanswerable. It isn't even hundreds of years away. It could quite possibly happen this decade, when the LHC is completed. This could mean every problem in physics solved overnight. All other sciences are extensions of physics, so maybe they all could be solved. We have absolutely no way of predicting what human life will be like in the post-solution world. The rules will have changed completely.

Back to the Superconducting Super Collider then. The SSC to me is an important philosophical artifact. It may have been the keystone of all human understanding, but now we'll never know. It is a symbol of questions that go unasked. Did those congressmen who voted first to begin the project and later to end it understand the scientific and philosophical ramifications? It was just another example of human nature: we could have stepped forward, but we stayed where we were.

Well, Atreyu was the hero of The Neverending Story.  The kid that rode around on the horse.  I think it's name was Artax. 

Anyway.  I LOVED that movie as a kid, and even though I haven't watched it in about ten years, I still have very fond memories of it. 

And I loved the name Atreyu.  But I didn't like the spelling of it.  So I changed it to Atreau.  Looks cooler, but is pronounced the same way.  It's been my screenname for everything since about ninth grade.

-Atreau  :rolleyes:

and that name just came into my mind wen i first joined the shroomery

ok il try to make it quick

basicly ma and freinds wer trippin in a tent and they wer all outside
i was inside
i was lookin at a pillow leaning against the side of the tent wall
the more i looked at it the more it did not look like a plain old square pillow but a square hole in the tent, could c the grass on the other side
i seriously thought that if i belived enough i could go through the hole
so i started muttering to myself "not a pillow, not a pillow, not a pillow"
i started saying it louder and louder
my freinds outside wer like wtf is he doing
i stood ip still chanting it and made a mad dash for the pillow/hole and made a face first base ball dive into it
i then started rolling around all over the place covered by sleeping bags and pillows and stuff
i couldent tell where i was put wen i finaly got up of my ass i was outside

though im pretty sure i just ended up rolling out the door it was pretty mind blowing wwhile i was on shrooms :laugh:
and thats my story :smile:

a friend of mine using the screen name "inmypocket" because one time we were all tripping and he was trying to find a lighter in his pockets and he was like, "what is all this stuff in my pockets?  i wanna be in my pockets!"  it was really funny while we were tripping.

good times! :sun:

My name is meant to be the virtue --- not velour, the fabric.
It's been my screen name in different contexts since college in the early 90's.

The lamer reason I started using it back then was when I drew this comic strip which featured all of my friends as super heroes, named after virtues.
I was valour.

It's not ~meant~ to be ironic. :-\

I belonged to an ADHD "family" forum that frowned on the use of cuss words.  :grin:

Me and some others were cussing up a storm.  We were threatened with a ban.  So, we came up with animal words to use in place of the cuss words.  I'm "Frog" for "Fuck".  Or, "the Fuck".  :grin:

I use Frog everywhere.  Thank God Skorpivo came up with a better reason for my use of "Frog".

I really don't know what my nickname means. It is as dull and mishapen as everything else in this artificial and meaningless world! :tongue:

daba, I have seriously wondered what your screen name means. Come on, you had to have a reason for picking it!

You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for that my dear friend is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it. ~ Adrian Rogers

hahaha thats awesome!! :thumbup: thanks for sharing!

a friend of mine using the screen name "inmypocket" because one time we were all tripping and he was trying to find a lighter in his pockets and he was like, "what is all this stuff in my pockets?  i wanna be in my pockets!"  it was really funny while we were tripping.

good times! :sun:




I often feel like that when I'm tripping, just like what are all these things doing here, and why  are these things there, why should I have these things in my pocket, my pocket contains things... wow...!

phi is a greek letter, pronounced "fee".
phi = 1.618... is an irrational number named the "golden ratio" or "divine proportion".

It arises in a number of mathematical and natural contexts.

In math:
Phi squared is equal to phi+1, or, more generally,
Phi^n = Phi^(n-1) + Phi^(n-2)

Phi is the limit of the ratio of successive terms of the Fibbonacci series F(n) = F(n - 1) + F(n - 2) : 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, ...
Also,
Phi^n = F(n)*Phi + F(n-1)
(for example, Phi^4 = 3*Phi + 2)

A "golden rectangle" is a rectangle with sides L and phi*L.
A smaller golden rectangle can be constructed from a golden rectangle by removing an L*L square, leaving a rectangle with sides Phi*L - L and L.


Successive points dividing a golden rectangle into squares lie on a logarithmic spiral, specifically the Fibonacci or golden spiral:


In nature:
Plant organs/elements around a stem are often seperated by an angle of very close to 137.5 deg. This corresponds to a rotation of phi = 1.618... turns (the 1 is not important in this context - this is the same as phi - 1 = .618... turns).
Here is a computer generated picture of what i just described:

Here is a head-on picture of a coneflower:

Here is one of a pinecone:

This is most often explained as being a result of a long process of natural selection, this being a very "efficient" packing method. I prefer the explanation that this is an inevitable result of the process of plant growth, simply not eliminated by evolution. You can read more about it here: http://www.wolframscience.com/nksonline/section-8.6
on pages 408 to 411.

In animals, many mollusc shells (like the sliced nautilus shell in my present avatar) and curved horns grow in logarithmic spirals, though not always golden (fibonacci) spirals (though the nautilus comes very close).

Spiral galaxies are also in the shape of logarithmic spirals. Golden? I don't really know, but kinda doubt it.

Many people attribute aesthetic advantage to the golden ratio, considering shapes with this ratio to be the "most beautiful" and finding it in places from the egyptian pyramids to the Parthenon to the violins of Stradivarious to many modern buildings and works of art. I havn't done too much research in this area, but am pretty sceptical about many of the claims.

In philosophy, many people look to the golden ratio as justificatiion of/proof for the idea that there is a fundamental, underlying, unifying order or truth to the universe. This idea has been a dream of many thinkers, from Plato to Einstein. Ceartainly, I used to believe that the universe was fundamentally rational or explainable.
Many things in my life have changed this for me. I believe that many things can rationally be explained seperately, but there is no global, overall, comprehensible context or reason to everything. Nonetheless, my handle is a memorial to the many years of my life in persuit of the truth.
Also, it is appropriate that I be named after a number, because numbers are fantasy and I have little experience outside of my imagination.

I swear to fucking god if you assholes keep talking about pockets you're gonna send me straight to the funny farm..seriously, the second time I ever took acid was three hits of really wicked (the opioins of my more experienced friends) purple geltabs, when I was coming up I was tripping hard ..real hard I could see above my normal field of vision (a desert with all kind of insane things) and I remember one of my friends coming in and talking about his pockets, something to the extent of "Yeah I had this pocket in my pocket and there was the other pocket with another pocket, and all I had was these pockets from before I had my pockets..." it was really pissing me off because I knew he was just trying to fuck w/ me but then he started to make sense (I was tripping that hard) so I didn't say anything, oh and asked him about it the next day and I guess he didn't say anything about pockets at all, it was all me. Anyways just quit talking about pockets, oh sorry to make this a trip report but that shit was really getting to me, and my name is the state of my life. That's all.

Its Pat is the handle I used way back in the 2400 Baud Modem BBS days; just a little bit before the invention of the Web Browser. Back then I had an Amiga 500 w/only 512k and no hard drive, each time you turned on the computer you would have to load the O.S. from 3.5" floppy.

Shit now that I think about it I've been using this same handle for 14 years. The occasional other handles I use rarely are "The Controller of Deception" and "SEAN1234". I use that last handle primarily on non-dope websites just as a joke. Don't get me confused with the Real Asshole SEAN1234.
