Nick of All Trades Posted March 14, 2013 I call myself Nick of All Trades. An unconventional lapse of judgement on my part, as it contains part of my real name; a notorious threat to my privacy. It is, however, the alias of my choosing, and I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world. Unless I found one I like better, of course. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nick of All Trades Posted March 15, 2013 Thank you! Though I don't really understand how you could see me modest as I have done nothing but talk about myself since I got here >_> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChiDragon Posted March 15, 2013 Thank you! Though I don't really understand how you could see me modest as I have done nothing but talk about myself since I got here >_> The keyword notorious in "a notorious threat to my privacy." was a dead give away..... In the Chinese cultural philosophy, if one admits something bad to degrade oneself one level below another, then the one was considered to be modest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nick of All Trades Posted March 16, 2013 Well, great deduction then! Although I chose to use the word 'notorious' in want of a better adjective, that doesn't make it any less true. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Basher Posted March 18, 2013 As the phrase is usually "Jack of all trades, master of none" I'd guess that your real name is Jack, you realise how much you still have to learn & that you're a Taoist !!!! (master of no one, not even yourself) Regards B.Asher (LOL) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nick of All Trades Posted March 21, 2013 You all seem to be such an insightful bunch ^^ Although I am hardly a Taoist... as far as I am concerned. My main interests includes brainteasers, information games, video games, writing and drawing; and very little about cultivation and Taoism. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
