That was great!

That was great! Most excellent! Thanks for that (insert initials for user name here). Sorry I can't spell or figure out how to abbreviate your handle. Is TP ok?

I think it would be TK, not TP

@dystopian

Thanato - death
Kephaloides - (well, kephalos means "head", hence encephalon = brain)
but, pushing Kephaloides into google brings back:
resident of Cefalu, which is a town in Sicily.

I think the name means "death to the elites" or something like that. What Cefalu has to do with it, I don't know.

Dead head

@arendt

Thanato - death
Kephaloides - (well, kephalos means "head", hence encephalon = brain)

.... and the ending -oides meaning "like".

It's pidgin Greek for "Dead head" (as in Grateful Dead). It arose from TOP (Daily Kos) waaay back before everything there went to the Christians' Hell in a fire non-resistant handbasket. Another Grateful Dead head user already had the name "Dead Head" sewn up, so I went the pidgin Greek route.

(That same user is also "Dead Head" here as well.)
