If I am honest, nor do I. It’s Malvineous R Nemesis, where R was going to be Richard or Robert or something — if I ever decided, I’ve since forgotten. It was Malvineous (after Malvineous Havershim from the Xargon Trilogy for MS-DOS, one of my favourite computer games) combined with Mr Nemesis as “mrnemesis” (a joke from my computer science degree course days, that fits in well with how hilariously bug-ridden Xargon was). When I started posting here I just shortened it all the way down to MRN as a name in its own right, since in full it’s a bit of a mess.

Maybe I’m in a better mood from watching this popcorn-munching disaster unfold (it’s so pathetic it’s hilarious), but one must consider that I don’t have his contentment, instead just loneliness — sometimes you wonder where the middle ground is supposed to be. Lowering oneself into the bickering does not help, though: make your point clearly, rise above it, and walk away. Don’t try to fight stupidity with more stupidity. Watching someone you respected and admired sink into that behaviour is truly disheartening, as it shows you how much you overestimated them.
