So I'm talking to a over IM, and he mentions in passing that he's looking at profiles on Yahoo Personals. Being bored, I thought maybe I'd have a look, too.
Well, I figured seems I've got a HotOrNot profile and a ninemsn Match.com profile, I might as well take one step further towards hell and make a Yahoo Personals profile.
Shortly after signing my soul over, I realized that I couldn't remember the Yahoo ID that I'd signed up! *gasp* Lucky for me, there's a lovely little "Forgot Your ID?" button. *whew* Damnation is at hand.
So I filled out the little form, and waited paitiently for the email that would reveal to me what ever it was I'd called myself way back in the day. However, what I was to be confronted with would shake the very foundations of space and time...

I had not only one ID, not even two, but five Yahoo ID's. My first thought, after I peeled my face off the wall was "What. The. Heck."

According to the email, I have signed up as the following names...
chrispowelljnr - definately my name [my real name], but I don't remember signing up with it..
ikibatsu - I don't even know what this word means, let alone remember creating an ID with it.
jackthirsby - ironically enough, this is the name of a character in a movie I saw a while ago [I forget the name..] about a company wiping the memories of its employees...
magma_jin - this is the name I use on DeviantArt. Why I signed it up on Yahoo I don't know nor remember.
psirhc_xiv - This one I [now] remember signing up, because I think I only did it a month or two ago.


So, yeah.. I thought that was kind of funny.

Was the movie "Paycheck?" Its funny that you have a character name from a movie about memory loss, and you cant remember signing up with that name. Coincidence? Or goverment cover up?

After a quick google on the name (which I'd in fact spelt wrong) I now recall that the name of the movie was "Cypher".

Alcohol also has the ability to cause rifts an anomalies in the space/time continuum, in which large gaps of time simply dissappear.

It's a widely known fact that the Australian government routinely wipe our memories of everything John Howard said pre-2001, Yahoo IDs, and Steve Irwin.

I just went to yahoo personals for kicks and I accidently said I'm a woman searching for a man, and I found two people who I know, both whom had been in the high school stage crew. One is a cool guy who shouldn't need to use internet personals to find a date and the other one is a major *** who has supposedly changed since I last saw him(so say people we both know). I laughed my *** off.

btw, doing internet personals seriously is a bad idea.

OMG! I just did a "Man seeking a Woman" search, and I found my friends recent ex-girlfriend. It was interesting, so I clicked on the profile and it said "Sick of boys, looking for a man". Oh my god, I've never laughed so hard. I can't stop. Can't....breathe...
