Topic: ITT: How did you come about your handle?
Meowth started this discussion 15 years ago #5,145
I came about Meowth from my Pokémon pillows I had bought at a Mexican 99 cent store. There were also Pikachu, Squirtle, Charmander, along with a couple other Pokémon to choose from. Meowth really stood out to me because it was right where I would rest my head. How did everyone come about theirs?stickybuns !bENfolDsOU joined in and replied with this 15 years ago, 45 seconds later[^] [v] #90,680

Started using the [Fox] handle like seven years ago in JKA.
I've used a variant of it in just about every site and game since.

Way back in February of 2010, I was in a tinycha room, and I needed an email for some... lewd purposes. It was like 3 am, so I made up an email name that was short and to the point. That email was [email protected]. A while later, I happened across T4C, and I needed a name. Since I am totally uncreative when it comes to names, I picked fake_anon. I've been too lazy to change it, so it's stuck.

@90,683 (Meowth)
My original nickname that old friends call me is "Memo". I used to play counterstrike with some really fat dude and he suggested Memo. I liked it and stuck with it. My real name is Myriam by the way. I wanted to get rid of it because it always reminded me of my old friends (I moved away from them 2 years ago.) I had random nicknames until Carebear.
I started using the nickname "Carebear" around a year ago. I think I was tired of all the mean, rude, and horrible-like people on the internet and decided to use a Carebear for the sake of irony. I never intended it to last but at that time I was getting added by a lot of *chan people to various messengers. They all remembered me as "Carebear" since that was what I re-named my nickname to. Then it just kind of grew on me, and remains up till this day.

The experiment was completely unwarranted and forced, while mine is voluntary and can be opt out of. Tell me, which one was really superior? The one that caused a spike in the Legion mentality and other mental disease, or the one that would promote posters to uphold a certain level of quality in their posts?

I didn't put a sig in every thread I posted in. They'd point out when I didn't use the sig when actually trying to discuss.
The point is, is that forced anon is impossible here for many reasons. It's more accurate to think of it as forced pseudonym here, since one would still get labeled by letter.

My origional username was Clipper_2 because my cousin got me playing a game where his name was Clipper, and I thought he was a cool as fuck Guy. On things not Chan or Irc related I use the name Commie.Clipper incorporating my Communist ideals with my origional name.

Krodan is the name of a main character in a lot of the various stories I write.
Auschwitz is a mystery to some, and a symbol of a lot of ill will to others, much like how people react to me in real life.
Freischutz is "free shooter". I do not like to let my thoughts be bridled by anything, I would rather think (shoot) freely than anything else.

If I was, I prolly was anon for that thread because I knew what was gonna do down.
I just tossed it out there because the whole thread was just bad trolling anyway, so i said fuck it, i'm bringing out the lettuce argument.
The argument is that if you dry and smoke lettuce, it is just as harmful as the smoking of tobacco. The absurdity of the thought of banning lettuce is supposed to make you think about how ridiculous tobacco laws are, but most people get hung up on the absurdity of smoking lettuce. lol, it makes for great trolling material!

But tobacco is more harmful than smoking lettuce. Tobacco has many added chemicals in it besides natural carcinogens. Those kinds of pollutants wouldn't exist in lettuce. Lettuce would have far less.

Smoke Smoke ---Memories of Chemistry classes long ago. Heat something to smoking point and create chemicals that are very different from what the material was pre high heat. Clean Lettuce good ...smoking Lettuce not necessarily so good.
Oxidize a few things that were passive and you get BOOM BOOM. Example take powdered aluminum - Aluminum does not burn...Oxidize it and great Rocket Fuel. I know I used to make Rockets as kiddlet from ground up Aluminum.
