My user name is a cleverly designed alias.
That's insane troll logic!

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Mine, too. It's why I change them up a bit.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
Strangely, mine's a completely fabricated alias. Because I'm definitely not real.

What is even happening?
Wow. I am so weirded out by...people using my name for theirs. I mean, it's MINE.
And they're saying it way way wrong, because of how it was pronounced in FF.
I am in my mid-30s and do not understand this humor. Perhaps if you mentioned the grunge music of my glory years.
I would, but I feel stupid and contagious. Here we are now. Entertain us.

True, but the Somervillains went all out hiring actors to play "victor infante" and "thessaly".

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Zenkitty is real. I'm a figment of her imagination.

Ha ha! Let us now go watch The Chris Elliott Show and remember fondly the days when "President Bush" meant "guy no one takes seriously."

All is well that ends in pizza.
I started using my dcjensen name because I was in a weird mood when I started posting on USENET, and was tired of all the less-than-forthright people using pseudonyms here and there.
Then I just used that all over the place until we landed here, and in a moment of whimsy mixed with pretentiousness I created my username with my full name. For a while I thought about changing it, but never got around to it.
Not that I'm above using aliases. I have posted as WWP here and there, and in my old BBS days posted as Robert Heinlein characters (Lazarus Long, Jubal Harshaw, etc) and a few not-so-original others.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Honestly, I use my on-line pseudonym because it's pretty much unique, whereas my real-life name is very much not.
Plus, it protects me from the axe murderers.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
This was my primary chat name. As a single woman living alone (back when I first got online), no way in heck was I going to waltz into a chat room with my own name. I valued the chance to choose my own name, and have generally felt that this one says at least as much about me as my meatspace name. Plus I rather like the song "Windy".
