lol. this thread reminds me of ‘operation hot mother’. can my callsign be buster?
bkitty = Spunky
nickname from way back!
Very cool doings, Solai!
Only if it ends with an apostrophe.
puddin’
I’ll wait to reveal mine until the dogtag’s complete. In the meantime, here’s a few I came up with that went unused… so far…
I don’t recall seeing Armando in this thread (though I could have missed him); for him, I nominate “Chops” – as in “considerable musical skillz.”
If anyone wants 'em…
Grendel
Banger
Mash
Warthog
Bones
Devo
Gorilla
Ape
Animal
Niner
Raisin
Spanky
Slappy
Tino
Tuco
Westy
Staples
Mage
Doctor
Ocho
Klaus
Udo
Chicken
As I try to shield my eyes from all things related to “The Hub” (still don’t have it… grrrr… wait, I mean…), I decided to go with the pronounceable option, Saffron woohoo.
I did think of some other random callsigns people might be interested in so here they go:
Habibi (darling in Arabic)
Moka
Boy
Buscapé, Bené, Dadinho, Zé (character names from Cidade de Deus)
Trader
Weaver
Lil’Blast
And inspired by GR’s earlier bird list… fun names to say in Spanish
loro (parrot)
halcón (falcon)
petirrojo (robin)
gorrión (swallow)
colibrí (hummingbird)
azor (hawk)
arrendajo or urraca (jay, add azul to the end to be blue jay)
pinzón (finch)
and one in English, because the bird is too cute for words: chickadee!
(If it’s not obvious, I’m still not out of the language confusion woods yet…)
great handle, avatar, and callsign!
welcome to the asylum
Oh, come on! You’re just lobbing them over the plate, now.
Your name is Censored.
OK, here are some suggestions:
Audra - either Coolest or The Coolest
Chuck - Guru or Archetect or Space Camp (thanks to The Lonely Toaster)
Sean - either Reverend (thanks to Topgun) or Batshit (for the type of woman that attracts him)
Barb - Censor
RonMooreHasPrettyHair - Locks
Emily - Energizer or Crystal Meth
Solai - Baratone or Bass
I don’t know what I should use for a call sign. I was thinking either Spoiler or or HeavyPants (a long story after hours and hours of playing video games with friends).
Anyone got any better ideas for me?
Lady D, good choice going with Shiny!
all it took was a word from talos and Solai
You’re doing fine, my little chickadee (google W. C. Fields for that reference.)
Spoiler is a pretty slick call sign Master. That gets my vote.
BEETHOVEN!!! But…but…but…like all composers, I have a love/hate relationship with the guy. His music was what drove me into classical music as a profession in the first place. Being in said profession, I make peanuts for a living. Therefore, I hate Beethoven.
Okay, okay, that’s a stretch. But what the hey, the callsign’s been assigned!
Edit: dear gods, 22 pages?!?! I saved this thread for a day or two and there’s THAT many pages to sift through? You guys are brutal!
Quit bitchin’, Peanut.
Right direction. I like “Droid Priest” for Sean, because he’s an ordained minister AND he has a cool picture with R2-D2. Maybe “Wookie Priest?”
Redshirt. /Starbuck
Seconded.
Speaking of which, where is Raemani these days? I haven’t seen her around in a while (and I’ve been rather AWOL of late myself!).
Edit: Should’ve read further before posting. Hi, Rae.
PERFECT!!!
My six year old has a stuffed bunny named “Buns.”
