It's time for another round of bad usernames. This one was prompted by the first on this list, fearmybooty, but spurred on by the sudden rash of names ending in "4U" and a few others that were too, um, good, to pass by.
• fearmybooty (Why? Does it smell? Are you going to sit on me? Let me go back to my first question: WHY?)
• BiG_FriGGiN_d (First off, what's with the mish-mash of upper and lower case? Second, am I supposed to be impressed that you said "friggin" instead of something else? Third, what does the "d" stand for, or do I even want to know?)
• TheRussMan4U (Lose the stupid nickname—"The Russ Man" might as well be something equally inane like "Big Man on Campus"—and the 4U and then we'll talk. Maybe.)
• basementcat4U (Is this meant to imply that you like cats that live in basements or that you are a cat who lives in a basement?)
• summerlover4U (What happens in the spring, autumn, and winter?)
• braziliandude4U (I think you are Brazilian, but what if you are trying to express your fondness for Brazilian waxes?)
• 5hourenergy (That's pathetic. Get some more sleep.)
• thierry4U (If you want to use your real name but someone has already taken it, don't add 4U onto the end of it, no matter what the dating site suggests. Try to muster up a little creativity and add something else, please.)
• itsrevolution4U (Who exactly owns this revolution?)
• coolboy4U (This sounds like the screenname a 13 year-old boy would pick for his AIM account.)
• loko4U (You coud at least spell "loco" correctly. That said, why would I want to date a crazy person?)
• sickallover (Well that just makes you sound so appealing…)
• bluecoller (I really hate to say this, but your username just fits one of the unfortunate stereotypes about blue collar workers.)
• STFUandKissMe (Nothing says I love you like this wonderful turn of phrase.)
When will they learn?

I'd assume the "D" stands for "deal" . . . but one never knows with this crowd.
There really are way too many "4U"s in that group. I suppose the first person who ever thought of it must have considered him/herself to be quite clever. Why anyone else has thought so is beyond me.
I think the dating site may suggest adding 4U anytime the username that someone wants is already taken; HOWEVER, that doesn't mean all of these blokes need to take them up on it.
If the site suggests adding "4U" that's all the more reason why one shouldn't do it! It's completely unoriginal if a computer fed you the idea.
Unfortunately there are a lot of really creativity-challenged individuals out there.
