I have a new name. You may recognise me from my avatar, but for those who don't, I was "kibble_alex". Dunno how lame this one is to be frank, but it is an improvement on the previous I hope That one really did suck.
Didn't know where else to put this, so I thought I'd inform you all here.

Welcome new person! You'll find plenty of helpful and warm people on the forums...
...except this one jerk named kibble_alex. He's one of the rudest, most selfish individuals on the Internet. I also hear he has questionable personal hygiene habits.

And yeah, Epignosis. Thanks for the welcome I concur, I've met him in real life. He is a douche with armpit hair potruding for all gaps in his clothes. It must be like a jungle in there...

I'll be optimistic by saying, "Great change of nickname!" I associated the old one over-much with dog food (but the Alex part was good).

------------- Watching while most appreciating a sunset in the moment need not diminish all the glorious sunsets I have observed before. It can be much like that with music for me.

To be frank I liked "kibble_alex" more. It was much more mysterious.

Ok, Alex, cool enough, but no pessimism in the Classical Music Thread.

I put forward the motion that the Alex formerly known as kibble-alex
change his name back, and that the Alex known as MovingPictures07
change his name to bits-alex so that we have a dog-gone delicious Alex
duo of kibbles 'n bits. All in flavour of the motion say "Woof!"

I hope you realize, there is absolutely no future in changing your name. You should change it back. But alas, that would certainly be futile as well.

I didn't want to say anything but I talked to you about The Lamb once through Private Messaging, and I thought 'what a wierd username'. I like The Pessimist much more.

Well...
So people can find a new identity on PA. That's a reason to be optimist, I suppose.
The Pessimist is an intriguing nickname, though, I must say.

Believe it or not, I don't exactly know what posessed me to chose that name. "The Pessimist" is pretty much an unofficial nickname for me in real life. I suppose it's because I'm pessimistic. I'm giving optimism a fair try at the moment though you'll all be pleased to know
