Do you REALLY want to use a drug reference in naming your cabinet? Granted, maybe none of your buddies care, but eventually it is going to end up shooting you in the foot (family member visits, girlfriend's parents, etc).

are you sure that the word "blunt" is based off a drug term or the adjective/verb "blunt" - upfront/to be upfront, straightforward, etc... maybe bluntman is just refering to having a "straight-forward" mame machine?... so his machine might not have anything to do with the drug-term blunt... like smokin' a phatty blunt....

hehhe ... sorry...just ramblin on... please don't take offense to this post.... i'm takin a break from an online questionaire that is slowly liquifying my brain...   ;)

I agree it COULD be the other meaning. But every it never is. Bluntman is just about always a drug reference. The name was originally a drug powered comic book character (Bluntman & Chronic was the comic) in those Kevin Smith movies (Chasing Amy?).

Of course. Mine is similarly worse. I had been using "BooBooKitty" as my online name for 5 years, and then that movie came out where they said BooBooKittyF*ck, and then everyone thought the name came from there. Which is why I have used my real name on every forum I have joined since then.
Bluntman:
hehe, the "Blunt" in both my net-nick and the machine CAN have that rather "dubious" connotation, but in my case it's more about me being, as traknfieldSUPAstar suggested, "Abrupt and often disconcertingly frank in speech" I tell it like it is...
I also LOOK very much like Kevin Smith/Bluntman, and LOVE his movies etc...

I do NOT personally indulge in, encourage nor endorse the smoking of "phatty boom-batty blunts", alcohol is my drug of choice, and I even game up the ciggies more than 18 months ago... so relax paigeoliver
, it's just a name...

It's also a play on BATMAN's (BLUNTMAN is a play on batman) prediliction toward naming his gadgets... Bat-errang, Bat-mobile, Batcomputer...
I've got a LOT of  "blunt-x" projects, my laptop "Blunt-top"  my main computer the "Blunt-Puter" etc... it's just a gag.


as for the "button map card thingy" Hulkster ... here ya go.... still a bit of a WIP though, but I HAD to get something up there for teh par-tay ;)
