+Roadster Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 So who is this "Mitsu..." I hear about? I never see the full name, just "Mitsu..." and when I do a search on just that all I get is the thread that mentioned the name but nothing about what it is all about. Someone enlighten me please! I want details. Cache On! Quote Link to comment
+Rygel Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 I believe it was an anime travel bug. Lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on mine. Quote Link to comment
+pater47 Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 'She who must not be named' was perhaps one of the forums most famous sock puppets a while back. A real cutie. Incidentally, Rygel is correct. She even spawned a travel bug in her name. If you REALLY want to know the whole story, you can find her with a TB search. But I WARN YOU!! Never, ever utter her name! Those of us who remember her best have sworn never to say it or type it again!

+The Leprechauns Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 Ever since the wedding, there's been a lot less talk in the forums about "HER." JamieZ, you sure broke a lot of hearts. We all hope you're happy. [Edited to remove the name of She-who-must-not-be-named. Sorry, Pater.] Quote Link to comment
+pater47 Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! Lep! You said the name! The curse be upon you!

MTBguy Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 I still don't get it, whats the history behind this whole MITSUKO thing? (ya, I said the name, because I am not one of "Those of us who remember her best") MISTUKO's profile????

+Roadster Posted April 7, 2003 Author Share Posted April 7, 2003 I was sent this url about her, seems to be the only one found. Who was involved and who admitted it too. Does anyone have some cache on them? Quote Link to comment
+Zartimus Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 Here's a sub-link on the TB page that Markwell posted that details the Tragedy. (the tragedy being that she is not real <sniffle>..) Although She may have bit me on the ear once, I'm not sure. Quote Link to comment
+Zartimus Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 Then again maybe you mean the French Canadian singer 'Mitsou' and her astounding bubblegum hits like 'Bye Bye Mon Cowboy' <retch>. Quote Link to comment
+Planet Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 I watched a Japanese show on public TV last night with subtitles and I swear I thought I saw her on it. Don't know the name of the movie. It had something to do with a Japanese father and his three girls and him looking for a wife. It's hard to keep up with the subtitles when you're trying to figure out if one of them is "Mits-she-who-must-not-be-named-uko" with an acting job. Cache you later, Planet I feel much more like I do now than when I first got here. Quote Link to comment
+Mopar Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 No movie or TV credits listed for her, although she did "star" in a 1/2 dozen videos that are basically just her and other auto race models posing for an hour. Tae-Kwon-Leap is not a path to a door, but a road leading forever towards the horizon. Quote Link to comment
Cholo Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 No one really knows the correct pronunciation of her name, much less the spelling. The first photo on this thread is probably a good likeness, but there are no known photos. Her son was a French-Canadian. She is depicted on the latest American dollar coin. I would vote for her as the 'first lady' of geocaching. Beach Park, Il USA Quote Link to comment

+Renegade Knight Posted April 8, 2003 Share Posted April 8, 2003 Ah yes. Sock Puppets. Alter Egos. You never really know what you are getting on the internet. Amazingly enough I missed out on the whole Mitsuko thing. When all was said and done I didn't miss a thing. ============================== Wherever you go there you are. Quote Link to comment
+Rygel Posted April 8, 2003 Share Posted April 8, 2003 First, I'd like to thank everyone for the links to the explanation of this whole thing. Second, what this person did by creating the Mitsu person was an interesting way of revealing the male of the species. Men on the internet tend to jump all over an female they see in a forum that would typically not see alot of women. These men act all nice to the women with hopes that she will "like" them or that perhaps some of the "I was nice to a woman" karma will rub off on them for the next girl. I've seen it here and many other places. This whole Mitsu thing gives a good idea into what women must endure all the time. Sure he led people on but they same thing would have happened with less encouragement. Lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on mine. Quote Link to comment
