Up until a week ago, I think most of us would have said there's no way you'll ever get your username changed.

Now, though, cats sleep with dogs and no one seems to mind, so go ahead and ask, I suppose.

I believe the going price on vanity is $5.

He's very nice about it.

You can't, however, change your username.

Matthowie let quonsar change his name once, and look what happened. You wouldn't want that to happen to you.

Sarge, you're not finding him because you're spelling it wrong.

What's wrong with your user name? How much more serotonin do you need before you'll chill out?

Is this the dressing room?

I've seen him do it, but those were for mostly new users who just changed their minds (IIRC). It would cause havoc if established users could change their name.

It would have been funnier if you'd posted this and your user name was something like "bigfatassmonkeyfuruncle."

Wait a minute! I am bigfatassmonkeyfuruncle! Well at least I was when I left the house this morning.

For $10 I will change your username. Of course we'll have to spell it the same as your current username. But we'll know it's actually something else.
P.S. Send me money.

What, are you getting tired of that turkey of a name, Tryptophan-5ht, or are you just milking us for sympathy?
