So I’m contemplating switching up my online alter-ego from The Other Drummer to…wait for it… Angryroll.

Allow me to explain/justify/rationalize/scratch the figurative itch. Then you can tell my why you like/hate the idea.

THE OTHER DRUMMER

Pros:

  • Some equity established – had it for years.
  • Doesn’t make make me seem ticked off.
  • Has a concept to it.
  • Sounds cooler than the alternative.

Cons:

  • It’s long. Does your email address have 24 characters? Probably not.
  • The concept is a few steps removed.
  • Kind of tired of the concept.
  • I don’t play the drums.

ANGRYROLL

Pros:

  • Now 40% shorter!
  • Easier to explain.
  • Ties into my last name.
  • There’s a joke to it.

Cons:

  • Lose equity.
  • Childish/odd sounding?

There’s the short list. I eagerly await your feedback in the comments.
