Defend Your Handle Part II

Budsdrinker · 07-19-2021, 01:02 PM

Been a member since 2007 after finding the site on the web. Moved to Texas in 1991 and always had trouble finding places to watch and talk Saints. This site introduced me to some great friends here in Texas. As far as my handle goes, it's pretty self explanatory, I've drank quite a few Buds in the past 40 years and figured it was easy to remember.

Might I suggest Pirate Hooker if you ever pick up that career path again.. Eye patches have a certain je ne sais quoi, mon amie...

The female version of friend in French?

What an awesome thread!

I was on another board for a few years and ended up getting blocked for being "too negative and critical of the team". I had to laugh when I read the message and realized those folks lived in a dream bubble of unicorn milk and pots of gold, not in the real world.

I cracked open a cold beer and sat down at the computer to find a new home for discussions with other WhoDats. It just happened to be an Abita TurboDog. When I created my account here, that became my screen name. I've honestly regretted that it wasn't something more related to the team, but c'est la vie.

I'm not as active as I was in the early days, I read more than I write. This has been such a better environment than that other site! Props to everyone involved in running B&G. And thanks to all those who have agreed, disagreed, argued, cried, laughed, mourned, and celebrated with me here in our virtual gathering spot.

You had me at unicorn milk and you closed the deal with Abita TurboDog...

I think Turbo Dog is a great Saints-related name. Makes perfect sense to me.
