As some of you are aware, there was recently a diary warning us all that one of the users on this site was not to be trusted because their username suggested dislike or distrust.
This is a very valid point. Here on DailyKos, we do not have many helpful methods of knowing whether someone is trustworthy or not. In the real world, we might be able to determine if a person is trustworthy by observing the clothes they wear, their skin color, their height and weight, and their general level of attractiveness. These valuable tools are absent on the Internet, and we have little to go on except for usernames.
It is with this in mind that I must sadly inform you that many DailyKos users are not to be trusted, based on their usernames. I feel that this is so important that I am willing to violate "calling out" rules in order to expose this to the community at large.

Jotter... in real life, is a scribbler.
occam's hatchet has never handled a hatchet and does all his chopping with a machete.

FishOutofWater was never really a fish at all, but was an amphibian which is capable of living both on land or in water!
emptywheel is not entirely empty. There are spokes in that wheel.
OrangeClouds115 is full of it. Those clouds are clearly more of a yellow-green. And 115? Hardly. Try 61.
One Pissed Off Liberal is, most of the time, just kind of tee'd off. Pissed off is really quite a stretch.
edscan is actually edsbottle, recyclable with green tinted glass.
Darksyde is not all that dark. Sort of Semi-Lighted Syde, if you ask me.
Devilstower is not really the mountain in Close Encounters. But he was that mountain's stunt-double in the movie.
Hunter is actually more of a trapper, while ironically Trapper John is more of a hunter. Go figure.
I am, however, totally explosions full of karate. What about YOU? Are YOU your username?
UPDATE: Rec List? My God people, are you trying to make GrannyDoc -- if she really is a Granny and/or Doc -- come after me with the rage of a thousand suns?
Braking!!! More information being released via Drudge at this hour:

Developing...
