Talking Change my title please?

OK, this "senior member" thing is just tooooo much Apparently, I'm supposed to be a role model and mentor now that I have a bunch of posts.

Can we change it to "Resident Curmudgeon" or something so that folks won't be surprised when I'm blunt with them?

Resident Curmudgeon? That's a good one - and it suits you...

I don't think you can have the title "Resident Curmudgeon" with an avatar whose ears people want to tickle!
It would fit you very well, except for that adorable avatar!

Yep, she's a corgi. Specifically a "Fluff" Pembroke Welsh Corgi.

The fluffy coat comes from a recessive gene that disqualifies the dog for conformation showing, etc but it also results in a softer temperament and (IMO) a cuter dog.

We also had a "normal" coated PWC for 15 years. We lost him almost two years ago.
