OK, as some of you know I've recently changed my display name to LincolnB (thanks to Deep Thought) The reason for this is, I was going to apply for an internship at Microsoft this summer, and I wanted to show off some of my programming and calc stuff, so I wanted to link to my Omni and Ceme accounts on my resume. However I didn't think the name Butts would look particularly good, so I'm changing it.
On a side note, I can't get the internship because i'm a year too young :P so, next year!
-
is that mean we can't make the jokes about you?
I'll remember it. :)
-
Good luck at getting that internship!!! :D
-
hehe thanks!
-
I actually like this name better, although I was initially confused lol. The other name kinda gave some people weird ideas sometimes <_<
-
butts... Yeah that name was kinda weird. LincolnB is infinitely more professional.
-
haha well, leafy and parser are pretty sad to see it go :P
-
Are you going to update An Exercise in Futility so that it doesn't say your old name?
-
Where is the downrate button when I need it? :P
we all know that the real reason that you didn't get the internship was because you changed your username. :P
(We can still call you butts on IRC, right?)
-
I hope it else I really wont know how to call you for short.
(and LincolnB is such a long name)
-
We shall call him... Linc!
And he shall be in the Legends of Zeda!
-
Hehe
Yeah I often tend to shorten the name of a member to the first 4 characters for highlighting purposes :P
(for example builderboy > buil ; jimbauwens > jimb ; geekboy > geek :3)

At first I thought this thread was saying that buttsfredkin is the same persone as Lincoln Brewster (random artist) IN which case my question was going to be......WHAT?? Lol but now this makes sense :) and butts....ER linc, how old do you have to be to intern? Cause I am so game for doing something like that!! And towards the linc and Zelda comment.....hmmmm I should talk to blakpilar about letting me write linc/buttsfredkin into our version of Zelda!!!
-
Nuuuu!/me said Legend of Zeda
:P
-
Haha actually we could do both! Change the name and the leading character lol
*saintrunner wishes he could change his display name to just 'saint'*

Hmm. What if members could change their username themselves once for every 1000 posts :D
Dunno if that'd get out of hand though <_<

Legend of Zeda?
Sounds like Linc will have to go find some 8 magical hex opcodes
/me runs

I think the age limit is internship-specific, depends on what you're going for.
