Since our friend A-CAP is no longer at A-CAP, it's time to nominate him for a new name.
Here's his profile. (http://touamb.com/index.php?action=profile;u=853) It doesn't tell us much, but via net-stalking you can likely learn more if you like. I think we already know enough about him as is.
I'm going to go simple and suggest the simplicity of going with his avatar and calling him Capitalist Piggy Bank, but please offer up any better suggestions.
-
Call him John Galt.
-
I vote we just go with "arachnocapitalist." It's what we call him anyway.
-
I'm trying to think of something to do with the similarity of letters in "Ayn" and "A-CAP," but I got nothin'. "Uyn"?
What were the guinea pigs' names?
-
My cavies names are Howie (for Howard Roark) and Atlas (for Atlas Shrugged). Please steer away from A-CAP related names, otherwise im happy to be renamed at the will of the community.
-
I've always liked Yon Yonsin.
-

I think we need to take this opportunity to teach arachnocapitalist. This is not a sentiment I would usually expect from him.
I looked at his facebook profile, but there is nothing on there which suggests any name to me.
Except, confidential to arachnocapitalist-- your girlfriend's last name is adorable.
-
Capitalist pig, guinea pig... there's got to be something there.
-
TheInvisibleHand...although that's probably too close too Inev.

AiA-CAP...even though I know A-CAP derivatives are out.

have I told you guys that now, everytime anyone uses the word Inevitable, I turn as if spoken to?
-

That is awesome. Extremely so.
I think you should get a little can for that.
-

That's awesome. I'd do the same, but "Golfhaus" doesn't come up much in conversation.
-
Capitalist Cavy, maybe?
Suggestion I have to make: I<3LFM4EVA
-
arachnocapitalist-- your girlfriend's last name is adorable.
I know, and her mother is a Reverend. Reverend Ru*fle. I call her Rev Ruff.
[edited to hide from google searches.]
-
oh, goddamn. I read it as Ruf*les. The S would intensify, maybe.
But also, those chips. not as great.

I always thought that the "arachno-capitalist" term suited him well.
Imagining Spider-Man except instead of fighting Doc Ock or the Green Goblin, he's... fighting for the end of the estate tax or whatever... has always been a good metaphor for Ennewhy.
-
"Capitalist Spider Pig"?
-
Ding ding ding!
-
"Capitalist Spider Pig"?
Cuspy for short?

This was when I thought A-CAP was going to Virginia for school (although it could also be N Carolina, I don't remember too well). Now, I don't know what he is doing, but I guess he doesn't want to tell us strangers, which is understandable.
-
Jesus fuck*ng Christ on a pushbike, this thread is comedy gold and gets a thumbs up from this girl.
Brewer Series 7 - Combines interest and goals.
Welsh Drunk - 'Nuff said.
That Dillhole - C'mon! We've all thought it!
Perot JR - C'mon, it could be any of them!
arachnocapitalist isn't bad. Pull the trigger on that stuff.
Fuck yes.
TheInvisibleHand...although that's probably too close too Inev.

Hot damn. I am not sure what to call him, but I do heartily approve of this heah thread.
-
I like "Annie Yu"
-
It is perhaps not that shocking that my ideas were already given in the first few posts of this thread, but I still think Uyn Rand wouldn't be too bad.
Can we keep the 'En' sound though, I'm used to calling him arachnocapitalist.
Envisible hand?
Ron Paul?
Why you?
-
Reverend Ru*fle. I call her Rev Ruff.
Reverend Ruff Sex
-
Envisible hand
-
All of this creative energy and yet Im still A-CAP.
-
I think maybe we're waiting for you to show interest in one of them?
Aynnie?
-
Can't expect anything in this life just handed to you arachnocapitalist.
-
I think we should rename you after Nevin Johnson's dog.
-
Hey. Play nice, now.
-
I think, out of ambivalent spite, we should just name A-CAP something really boring like "Ted."
-
I still say give him bozack's old number, which is still filtered if I recall, so even better.
-
Can we name him Suggs?
-
Law and Order: A-CAP*
*This isn't actually a good name**, I just wanted to post it.
**Nor is it a good joke.
-
How about ITT Tech?
-
BYOB?

WTF?

We don't actively dislike A-CAP that much, do we?
-
Can't forget _end_of_times_wigger_!
-
no, I just suddenly remembered when that happened. Back when I was lurking, and was bad at remembering people's names, and thought there were a lot more people posting on this board than there are. There is no reason we would call A-CAP that.
-
i think I like Arachno Capitalist - the imagery attached is just so strong. A giant sider in a tophat and vest w/ pocketwatch - parading down the street demanding freedom from taxes

Well, get cracking there, kid. That avatar's not gonna Photoshop itself.
-
I always pictured Spider-Man with a dollar sign on his chest and cent signs over his eyes.
-
Pick one and let's get a move on here, folks.
Do we need a poll? Because I really don't want to find myself typing "the artist formerly known as arachnocapitalist" on a regular basis.
-
Is arachnocapitalist pronounced like "Ennui (http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/ennui)"?
-
Pick one and let's get a move on here, folks.
Arachno-capitalist, for the win.

With great power comes great responsibility...
-
Okay. I guess it's official, since there's an avatar now?
Although I liked the monopoly tycoon spider-in-top-hat image, too.
-
Sure, but that would take actual talent to come up with.
-
Oh man, I have a new name. Also- all references to arachnocapitalist and A-CAP are complete nonsense to anyone who reads the archives.
-
And 1000 posts.
-
A-CAP is dead.
Long live A-CAP.
-

Oh, I fixed the filters, too.
Heh heh heh. Mmmmmmm, abuse of power.
-
We have always had a poster called arachnocapitalist
-
Oooooooh this is creepy.
-
After the collapse of society, the prolonged dark ages, the rebirth of technology, and the renewed vigor of archeology, this thread will confuse the scientists of the mutated hordes, and cause them to view A-Cap as some manner of trickster god.
Congrats!
-
The Ministry of Truth is working overtime, boys.
I, for one, welcome Arachno-Captitalist, even though he never left.
-
I've always been A-CAP and so has my wife.
-
Some young pup seven years from now is going to be on here talking about his college choices, and mention That College, and no one is going to remember this, and wonder what the hell is going on.
-
Powerful women. I'm fighting a crush.
-
Interestingly, there was no editing of filters done at all.
We got a package-deal history-erase when The Devil From Outer Space bought Spider Man's marriage off him for the life of a 180 year old woman. She's gonna die again any day now anyways so, like, we got some message board considerations tossed in on the side.
People never think about the little toss-in perks you can get at The Crossroads if you're prepared to negotiate smartly these days.

From what I hear I have this issue in waiting in my box. I'm... not excited.
-
Yeah, uh, don't be.
That whole thing about Spider-Man bein' all about taking responsibility, no matter the cost?
The underpinning of the entire character?
Yeah, uh, he makes a deal with The Outer-Space Devil and everything that editorial didn't like in the last twenty years, good bad and indifferent go boom with no logic other than "a wizard did it"... in this case, an outer-space Devil Wizard.
Very not good.
-
I've been away for a while. If the name ArachnoCapitalist was all that changed in my absence, that would be enough. Because it is awesome.
-
You're just teasing us with your presence, Pedro. I expect we won't be seeing much of you or JL in a week or so...
-
No, but if our son's mastery of the internet continues apace, he'll be posting here FOR us soon.
