Bingo. Got it in one.

My nuts look disturbingly like cooking apples. Should I see a doctor about it?

Bingo. Got it in one.

Actually, if he'd got it in one, he'd have worked it out from "How appropriate. You fight like a cow", he got it in two, eventually.

I didn't even get it in two. I don't even remember the "you fight like a cow" one.

It's probably because I've only played Monkey Island 2 and very little of the third one.

Now, to win your geek stripes, can anyone tell me why he was called Guybrush?

Yes.

Why was he called Guybrush?

I know the first two almost inside out but I never knew that.

guy.brush
that's how it was saved in the computer
they called him guy

Now you guys got me interested. Care to answer/elaborate?

huh? Didn't I answer it good enough?

YEE-HAW!!!!!

I'd say not.

In Deluxe Paint on the Amiga, an image with transparent parts (like a sprite) is called a "brush". When they designed Monkey Island's protagonist, he didn't yet have a name, so they just saved the "brush" that contained his image as "guy.brush".

The rest is history.

I hope my buggering-up of the UBB codes won't hurt my geek credentials.

Consider your stripes, stripped.

well, I answered first.

You kids play outside or you're going to be napping in the John Wayne Gacy suite. Out. Go play... let's GO... hup hup hup... hit the bricks.
