I forget exactly how I got that tag, but it was from a Cool Runner, who was roasting someone who was complaining about something on a CR thread and he finished by saying to the person: "...and there's poor old Luckylegs who can't run out of sight on a dark night" doing her best or something like that...I've forgotten exactly how it finished!
I liked it so much (and it being so appropriate) that I've kept it as my tag ever since!
