If you have no idea what the hell I'm talking about, then go see Bajah's thread. I don't want to go through this thread and have someone go "WUT?" By saying that I'm ensuring someone will. Prove me wrong.
And now for the guide!
1. Find a 'shtick'
-Something that relates to your personality, or who you are.
2. Convey that 'shtick'
-Present it in a constructive manner. If your shtick is that you like swords, make a thread about swords, and present your knowledge of them/or your posession of them/or your wanting of them. DO NOT USE THE SWORDS SHTICK. We're not in god damn Corneria.
3. Don't complain that your shtick is smaller than someone else's shtick.
-This will cause much sexual innuendo.
This is where I say I have no god damn clue about what I'm saying. But if it's useful information, then sure, use it.

Neat!
And thanks for reminding me--I have to look for an update to my Life Balance program.
--Satan, quoted by John Milton
If you can't laugh at yourself, then whatever you do, don't try to get noticed.
Mwaha.

It's a PalmOS task manager. It's from here: Llamagraphics.
You see why it reminded me . . .
Pisses me off, though. There's a new release, but they want registered users to pay yet again. And this one's damned expensive for Palm software.
--Satan, quoted by John Milton
But then again, you didn't say, "noticed in a good way."
"Don't want to sound like a fanboy, but I am with you. I'll buy it for sure, it's just a matter of for how long I will be playing it..."

I don't think you have your own unique shtick yet.
If parcelan has parodied you, you have a shtick, and likely know what it is from said parody.
If you HAVENT been parce-parodied, ya dont have a shtick.
Sometimes having a shtick is a good thing. Sometimes its bad.
I have no shtick, and im not gonna create one for myself
-Bitching about irrelevant things like timelines.
-Trying and failing to flame.
-You are a n00b Crusader.

There was much rejoicing when Mr. Parcelan said this:

Nice. Couldn't be more right, sadly.

From the book of Mr. Parcelan, chapter 3, verse 16:
Mr. Duck = Random person that nobody truly understands. Right next to Shtickless.
better than nothin
Whether that is a good thing or not, I don't exactly know.
Of course, if my Shtick is actually archery, it's not too hard to figure that out.

Archers Roxxors!
I think a lot of people generate schticks, and never even realize they do. Of course, until someone states it, everyone could very easily have very different images of the same poster, and never even realize it. [ 04-28-2002: Message edited by: Chalesm ]

... You're a Roach (sometime lobster ) character, as well as a webcomic author whose made great 3-D "Heads" models of several people here. Using those you've made some pretty hilarious comics.
And that's before we even start looking at your posting, and your trends there. I'd say you've got several "shticks" going, unless everyone is using the word in a far different context than I think they are.
