Off topic announcement to my UK Tesla friends

[JonB]

Hey chaps

Happy to say that with the help of the admin team I have been able to change my user name from "Gweilo" (an in joke) to "JonB" which I have used on many different forums over decades but it wasn't available when I started my TMC account. I will be changing my avatar presently, but thought I'd let you know in case there are conversations I reply to and it confuses the corresponding thread. As in "Who is this bloke?"

 

[MrT3]

So long Gweilo, welcome JonB.

 

[pgkevet]

Don't be fooled - he's an imposter

 

[JonB]

Mwahahahahahaha......!

 

[HenryT]

Good luck with your transition - hope you are happier in your new self.

Maybe Musk named his children the way he did as they were only user names he could find which were still free?

 

[pgkevet]

Mwahahahahahaha......!

The ghost of Carl Wilson...sloop. sloop

Yes but what are your pronouns?
Apparently that's need to know information these days.

Emphatically “Mr.”, sir!

And now my transition is complete. Behold the new avatar.

I'll defend you're right to self identify no matter what anyone else thinks!

 

[JonB]

I'll defend you're right to self identify no matter what anyone else thinks!

And I'll defend your right to post on grammatically shaky ground whenever you like.

 

[Adopado]

And I'll defend your right to post on grammatically shaky ground whenever you like.

I'll blame the auto-correct ... ! Drat drat and double drat!

Bank job went well then?

Good luck with your transition - hope you are happier in your new self.

Just because Gweilo has a mental illness that makes him want to be JonB, he'll never really be JonB. Instead of pandering to his delusion, the mods should have helped him come to terms with being Gweilo.

Ah, I thought maybe that was it... after I'd posted.

Who knows ... could still have been a brain fart ... I'm only "claiming" Auto-correct to try and save face! I should have that in my signature ... "all spelling and grammatical errors are courtesy of Auto-correct" ... I couldn't possibly make a mistake, surely!
