The one IM to rule them all

Occasionally, I get random people that send me a message on AIM. It used to happen quite often, but hasn't in a long while until today. It went like this:

thefoolishtook:

me:
Samwise?
thefoolishtook:
not quite
me:
not quite jen, either
thefoolishtook:
so its not the meddo plt ldr that we all know and love?
me (but really Krystle, my co-worker typing):
nope, it's the cuddly teddy bear that we all love to squeeze
thefoolishtook:

me:

thefoolishtook:

{thefoolishtook has gone Offline}
me (in real life):
