(Insert CSI theme song here)

[tahnan]

I was poking gently at my userinfo, and the people who've friended me, and suddenly I thought, wait, do I even know who all these people are?

If you're reading, and I know you, but you think there's a chance I don't know you from your LJ name, post and say hi, and give me some indication of who you are. (No need to use your real name; but something like "I'm Hazmat from Garou"--hi, Hazmat!--or "I was Jerry in that play we were in together back in 1996", or something identifying.)

If you're reading, and I don't know you, well, no need to try to tell me who you are, because I don't know, do I? But feel free to confirm that I needn't keep staring at your username going, "Jadelennox...Jadelennox...who the heck is Jadelennox?" or the like.

Hi! Kendra here, just in case the username didn't parse.

Took some staring. Then, some more staring; then some reading the journal, then following a link to pictures, and going up a directory, and looking at the pictures of the characters, and saying, oh, these are all the same person. And I do know her. :-) Hooray for finely-honed stalker skills.

Hi, Kendra. :-)

You could at least tell us who you are first, and what you're doing on our friends lists.

Hello, I am Kirby. We were both members of the Renegades of Pern Cookie Baking Society, and I once publicly interrogated you on your drug trafficking transactions.

I also have since learned that Harpo was never a member of the Beatles.

I knew you in eighth grade, when we bonded about Saturday Night Live and other geeky things. Hi!

[prog.livejournal.com]

I'm standing right behind you.

[hahathor.livejournal.com]

I am Hathor, goddess of beer, music, destruction, and dancing.

I'm Quincy A. Qaqson, and I found your blog while searching for linguistic musings and be-facial-haired cartoon userpics.

I actually don't know you. Someone must have hacked my account and friended you. I'd best call LJ-abuse!

Though your dissertation and I have a very close personal relationship. We dated for several years.

[silkblade.livejournal.com]

Do I know you? ;)

I'm Mrs. Parker.

I'm Tyler/Mosiac, much too frustrated by school right now to make an attempt at humor.

[probably-lost.livejournal.com]

I'm Curtis. And sleepy.

[hilariarex.livejournal.com]

I should think it would be obvious from my username, but in case you have forgotten me in all the intervening years since we used to hang out...

It's Gwen, Goddess of Fire. Or should I say, Hillary.

We belong to the same secret, world-controling cabal. Or at least its email list.

[lilisonna.livejournal.com]

Oooh! Curtis! Hi, Curtis!

[lilisonna.livejournal.com]

I believe we were in a play together in eighth grade.

[cramerica.livejournal.com]

You mean there are actually people what don't know you?

[laurenhat.livejournal.com]

I'm Lauren of the Hats who talks to you frequently at Diesel about grad school, language, puzzles, MIT, etc. I just noticed that you have me friended under my old (dormant) account name (neural_girl), which might be a source of some confusion.

[thedan.livejournal.com]

I'm Stanley Newman. Wanna hear some number trivia?

[twotails.livejournal.com]

Hazmat here, or Adia as you used to know me by. From, yeah, GarouMUSH.

[navrins]

I think you know who I am. I directed you, entropyspring, and a gun.

[aspartaimee.livejournal.com]
