I am Yuute Hergeshlervenshvicschlocken
"Hergeshlervenshvicschlocken, Yuute Hergeshlervenshvicschlocken"

"Get away from me you creep!"

That line ALWAYS works for James Bond, why not Yuute Hergeshlervenshvicschlocken? It is because I am Yuute Hergeshlervenshvicschlocken, the man with the longest last name in America. As you may have guessed, but probably didn't, I am an immigrant to this country from the barbaric nation of Scandinavia. Democracy, personal freedoms, and sexy women are my reasons for coming here (not in that order of course...Goober's writing this after all).

This tale will reflect on my old life in Scandinavia, my career in the military, as well as some more personal aspects of my life. Some may find it tragic, most will probably just laugh a lot, hopefully all who read this will enjoy it.

Keep an eye on this thread for the first chapter!

When I was working in a bank a Pakistani gentleman came in with a name 3 times longer than your Yuute dude has, about 100 letters long set up in 3 pieces. I refused to process his withdrawal until I had finished addressing him. He waited patiently nodding and grinning. I love long names. They have character, unlike the boring Bob's, Bill's, joe's, chris's etc.

Today apolyton set a record by interrupting my visit here today with about 11 pop-up ads!

Bond used the name (spelling just a guess here) Klaus Hergeshiemer in "Diamonds Are Forever."

As far as the popups go...I always use Opera when I go to Apolyton.

While we're on the subject of funny names, there was a gentleman in my home town named Harry ****, and this I can assure you was for real.

Due to the actions and comments of unscratchefoot, I will not be writing this story.

You suck scratch, I hate you.

That is all.

Now, now, goober, you can't take a good laugh away from us all, just because of scratch. I am sure he will edit the stuff that offended you out as soon as he actually wakes up. If not, well, you could always start another thread

You're kidding me goob... right?

You got immense feedback when you announced this story, the fact that all of us convened to hear the prose you promised to set before us should be enough to propel it through the opinions (however poorly stated) of a single person.

So what my freind? If he doesn't like it he can leave, if he desires to, instead of forming constructive criticism, berate a story that hasn't even begun.

But i came here to read this story goob, you're the funny one, you write it.

Listen to SKILORD, goober, for from his lips flows the truth. He's brought up a great point. You have gotten 20+ replies to this story even before you wrote the first chapter. Some stories don't get that many after they are finished! The audience loves you, man.

This guy is probably some jerk who signed on as Scratch. He posted that same thing - or a variation of it - on all the stories threads I've seen so far. The real Scratch, I'm sure, will edit that stuff out when he gets back and finds out about this. I'm sure of it.
