    4DHyperCubix

    Why? Well, for one I spent a whole week on figuring out stuff about the 4th dimension on my own... I grown an interest in it now. Well, HyperCubix - really two meanings. One you may see is "Hyper Cube." That is n-dimension cube > 3. Also, Cubix - Like the Rubik's Cube.. that puzzle kicks ass.

    I too am rather fond of your team from the red half of Manchester. They're winners. I like winning.

    Obviously, I am not here to explain my name. I am simply here to bash the bandwagon, asslicking 'Red Devil" loving punks named Wraith and Red Devil. Yea, manure maybe rich, hell, they may even be said to be good. But guess what? It's all about Arsenal you dimwits! The gunners are the presently the best team-- undefeated in England and will win the fucking premiership. The only other team close is Chelsea. So you pathetic "we are the richest" team spewing bunch of reddened acne picking slugs of chips infested maggots, kiss my gooner ass!


    Since I'm in a good mood however, I’ll indulge:

    I'm sure most here have read the novel, The Fountainhead, by Rand. I personally think some parts insightful, but mostly a regurgitation of pathetic romantic subjectivity that is far too influenced by a worldview stemming from a childhood in the Soviet Union. Follow?

    Anyway, the name is two parts.

    thefountain + hed.

    thefountain is mostly in recognition of assertions made by the character Wynand, that I found astute. HED is an acronym whose meaning is vulgar, derision and which you won't find out. As an exercise you could figure it out by looking at what Wynand says, but why would you waste that time? HED is presented in lower case for the impression of deliberate dishonesty in spelling.

    'Ozymandias' from Percy Bysshe Shelley's poem, Ozymandias:

    I met a traveler from an antique land
    Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
    Stand in the desert. Near them, on the sand,
    Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
    And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
    Tell that its sculptor well those passions read,
    Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
    The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed,
    And on the pedestal these words appear:
    "My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings:
    Look upon my works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
    Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
    Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
    The lone and level sands stretch far away.

    Hooray!

    Because having to tell people my old Instant Message name was getting annoying, so I change it to this one which won’t get pro-lifers that over hear my conversation to run up and mace me in the face! If only “kentuckyfriedfetus” was not taken I would have kept that one for life! “Wellcookedfetus” was a lamer alternative.

    “Neuromancer” is the book that started the sci-fi cyberpunk genera. I will usually feature avatars from cyberpunk movies, comics and anime.
    NeuromancerUltra is a rocking IM name

    Even in real life I respond not only those who call me by my real name. I have a nick myself, and sometimes I permit people call me that name.
