I was hoping this would be interesting and that we'd learn where others are from. I'm disappointed. It's turning out to be mostly throwaway comments that really aren't very interesting at all, at least to me. I would delete this entire thread right now if I knew how. For the few who actually listed a home town or state.....thank you.

Didn't expect such a strong reaction. This must have been very important to you.  I'll remove my post if you like.

Too bad you're such a loser. I travel to Vegas all the time. I'll be there in a month as a matter of fact. We could've hung out, do some blow, get a few girls. But no, you have to be a mean toad to me. 

I don't want to hang out with you tho.

lol a wise croc 😂

I edited my post. Your comment was not "Smart a$$"...just light and playful. I overreacted in my disappointment.....but thanks a ton for being sensitive to my thoughts. I am disappointed as I said, but I guess I set myself up for it

I may know a prince who grew up in Nigeria to help you with that.

Singapore, city and country, in my past life here.  And as a bonus here's a photo with another chess commie from South Africa.

That's true for sure, but every once in a while you might also get delighted.....or inspired.....or moved....or you might learn something.... so it's not all bad. There has to be some reason we keep coming back.

My next thread was going to be asking people what their screen name means and how it came about. But I don't want to experience this kind of disappointment again, so I'm not going to start that topic and you will just have to wonder how I came up with mine.

I've always said....If you're going to use an alias, make it a false one. I mean....what's even the point of a true alias?

Have you ever been to Kenedy County?
There's a guy that lives there who used to do IT work for Chess.com.  He went by the name of "Jeremy" but I later found out that it was a false alias.  (Someone else identified him but I could not save the post at the time because I was on mobile and kind of busy).  

no way.  jeremy spoke in class today
