The word was "kengr" which is Old Norse for "bent". But it's more properly translated as "kinked". Thus I became Eirikr inn kengr (Erik the bent, or Erik the kinky depending on who's asking). I found that whilew my old BBS handle (Shadow) is in use just about everywhere, kengr isn't in use *anywhere*. So I use it. At least for anything that might get "interesting".

Date: 2003-10-06 08:34 am (UTC)Well if I'd been thinking, I'd have had something about being "for" them too. :-)
Thanks for posting this. I think it helps to understand more about people sometimes when they post these things.
Well, if I hadn't been answering it in small chunks, I'd probably have note answered it at all. Some of that was uncomfortable to answer. Made me think about stuff I'd rather not think about. Which is why I have tossed many a quiz/meme before completing them.
