    Cute name! Don’t think I’ll have any trouble recognizing you whatever the name says, your style is very distinctive and funny. And I won’t call you smarty for picking a good name, hehe… You’re a li’l dummy, maria!!

    Edit: Do you care about the capital letter on your name? You don’t use them at all, but now I’m not sure if it’s part of the name or if I’m free to capitalize however I like.

    I though the username was something like “It’s Morty” but in a cute way.

    Or are you saying that you dislike people mistyping your username as smarty? Makes sense that it makes you feel as pretentious.

    Have fun Maria!

    I feel bad because I pointed out that you were a smarty! I swear it was because of your qwenposts, not your username! XD

    Very pretty name!

        that’s an old screenshot, but it still shows your username for me bc of my client

        i guess i can see how you see it as sexual, but i really don’t mean it that way. it’s more meant to be gender affirming

    Tis unfortunate that people conflated your former name with ‘smarty’, if anything smorty was a good subversion of that. You are a cool and special peep, in the best way.

    Anyways, excited for all the future Maria memes! :3

    Hi Maria!
    Like others said, I’ll miss Smorty. But it doesn’t matter in the end, because you’re still the same wonderful person and you should have the name that you want :)
    But I never associated your old name with “smarty” though. Sorry to hear that you had to deal with that.
