Wonderful! Definitely back in twizzle form.
Was that you, Mrs P?
The name that comes up for Karen Chen she may not have found too welcome, so I imagine that if indeed she heard gossip about the skater name aliases, she probably copped Maia's nickname. Maia herself doesn't need to cop it or publicize it, since she already owns it, lives it and gracefully embodies what it means! 
As I explained in the U.S. ladies thread in GSD, about a year ago or so I came across the Wu-Tang mess.be website and I started a thread about it. I found out about it after learning that actor-comedian Donald Glover got his alias 'Childish Gambino' from the Wu-Tang name generator. You can enter any name and immediately receive a Wu-Tang clan alias. It was so freakin' eerily accurate, it was irresistible typing in a bunch of skaters' names and even FSU monikers too. I don't know where the original Trash Can thread is, but it was unreal. I figure that some skaters heard about it, especially with names that came up like:
'Quiet Assassin' for Maia Shibutani
'Amazing Samurai' for Guillaume Cizeron
'Lazy-assed Genius' for Patrick Chan
'Gentleman Assassin' for Brian Boitano
'Quiet Magician' for Wenjing Sui
'Quiet Hunter' for Ross Miner
'Profound Samurai' for Jeremy Abbott;
'B-loved Worlock' for Adam Richard Rippon (as we know, AdaRipp admits to being a witch)
'Pesty Prophet' for Nathan Chen -- at the age of 11, Nathan did prophetically state he was going to the Olympics in 2018
Understand that I did not make up any of these nicknames myself. That's impossible, even despite the fact that 'aftershocks' = 'Misunderstood Genius'
Again, I don't know if the 'Figure Skater Aliases' thread is archived, but here's the Wu-Tang website link:

I didn't even think to use my username!
I got "Wicked Observer".
I told you it's very accurate, more often than not. Or if Karen has a middle name, she can enter her full name and come up with something maybe more profound. I did this with Meghan Markle's monikers.
OMG, yes!!There might also be a SD twizzle video where a certain person is saying the numbers along. hehehehe...wonder if it should be posted here?

P/C are going. V/M 99% sure they won't because if they win OGM they'll want to stop there but if they win OSM, they might not want to risk to win silver gold.
. And I agree totally about the twizzles.
NBC is taking down all the videosSomeone uploaded again the HD version of the FD NBC https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3liLmE9vlU0, I do not know why the user who had uploaded it, deleted it, she/he did the same with the video of H/D.
And this video of their SD was blocked https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZjEhA71B7RM
Because why promoting skating online ?

Oh gosh, just when I was getting ready for Mambo Masters of Pyeongchang. I like it, but I'd rather go with something upbeat and fun! We can wax philosophical after Worlds.

On another note, I got my first like from Lily and Po!
And on yet another note: gee, a lot of folks are ready for the Shibs to retire. It's probably just to make room for their faves but it still rubs me the wrong way. I don't want them to stop. I think they have so much more to give. However: if they stay, IMO it is time for a coaching change. In spite of how much they love being super hands-on, I wonder if they would be better served by putting themselves in the hands of a choreographer they trust and letting his or her special genius take charge. There is having big input and then there is taking control. I get the feeling they've done the latter the last two seasons and I'm not sure they've quite pulled it off. I wonder how they would do with Krylova and Camerlengo if that would work with H/B. Camerlengo is a wonderful choreographer.
