I was just wondering, I put it there but on a different forum...they said, it was kind of distracting and they were polite too. Do you think that little ducky is distracting? If you think so, please tell me and I'll request to remove it

I don't mind, whatever makes you feel good.

Sincerely,

Dominic

thank you for your kindess. I mean, I guess to play the devil's advocate role, I am being a tad different and that would/could be taken as "he's doing it for attention" and that could be taken further to "he's wants to be special and stand out from the rest of the crowd and be like on a pedastal"

this is how my stinking thinking goes for my stuff sometimes. I'm critical, judgment, of my self. If I take your words and make them my beliefs, I feel fine

Thank you for your caring words. I'm not going to worry about it. I saw a person do it, with a teddy bear emoji and I thought, oh, penguin or duck for me.

Well, I like my little duck.

By the way, there is a backstory to it. it's funny, do you want to hear it?

please ask me

ladies: ok, dom, tell us your story

me: ok

You know at work, a guy was telling me about this game where you're a duck that just harrasses people.

It's called the untitled goose game, when I saw the intro, I died laughing. Please take a look at this.

goose.game/

well, I guess there is a difference of goose and duck but sight that gives me emojis (I use this because I don't have a smart phone but use a flip phone) didn't have a duck.

by the way, there is that emoji site that I got this duck from

emojipedia.org/

why am I such a dork?

I bought it for $20 bucks on the Nintendo Switch. Now, I can harrass humans being this annoying duck. It's hilarious. Look at his beedy little eyes and the quack noises makes these little squigly lines...hahaha. it's just a cheap, lame game but I love it.

Well, that you know the reason to my madness of that 'little duck' emoji on my display name...and I don't know if you see it, but in my email signature, there is a duck emoji who is swimming.

I learned a new trick in BBC Code called "marquee"

This is my code by the way, in case you want to use it for your own, try it.

The emoji is different but I have seen them before, and wondered how they were done but have never investigated.

If anything it is actually the name which I find confusing as the characters appear to be from more than one language / character set.

It's interesting how you change user name so much, but all these things make life. It would just get a bit wild if everyone did it

I know a_muppet helped me change mines. I got to give her a break, I kinda asked too much from her and feel bad.

I changed my display name like every two days for many days and I think I did not do well.

a_muppet, I will not ask for a while

(hint hint).

Please don't be mad

I was talking more about generally. The important thing isn't so much the moniker it is just how you tend to identify through your writing. A lot of people have come to identify me through how I talk online without ever looking at my moniker. Sometimes they are accurate and other times they tend to miss the mark so much that it becomes downright hysterical.
