 * As the admin asked to review your username, I don't have any problem with someone being self deprecating. Feel free to keep it if you want. --  Netsnipe  ►  13:12, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

In the interest of harmony and respect, I have chosen (as of 20 minutes ago) to request a name change. I must respectfully point out, however, that my present moniker is neither self deprecating nor intentionally offensive. Indeed, I meet all criteria implied by said user name...and while the maritial status of my parents at the time of my birth are another story entirely, I have earned the first two epithets honestly. Just wanted to be clear on this point. --GrumpyOldBastard 07:33, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
