Chef Boyardeez Nuts: Sep 9, 2011; The more you kick against the pricks, the more you suffer.

I was around for the very first pre-rollout version of AKO where the instruction was "make an account, I guess." I, possessed by a random impulse, signed up substituting "Danger" for my first name and promptly forgot AKO existed. Like two years later AKO was instituted for real and oh hey, my account was still there. I changed my name back and figured no big deal. What I didn't know was at some point some genius decided to overwrite many official things with the user-entered data. This became clear when my PCS Order came in marked "Danger." I tried to fix it, command tried to fix it, but no matter what we did, orders awards, even my loving dogtags would show up "Danger."

Eventually I just learned to roll with it.
