Mabuhay at maligayang pag-alis sa Lemmy! βοΈ
An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! π΅π
Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from June 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

Todayβs Ask PHlemmy: What inspired your username?
A color and a birthstone.
You know...
Don't tell me it's kaka midnight snack ng Pancit Canton?
Yes, but not the pre-packaged bullshit I advertised here on Lemmy. I literally made a pancit canton from scratch, and ofc I bought fresh pancit at mini-palengke nearby. lol
Oh wait, my username is not PancitCanton.
I presume that's from flour, water and other stuff? Damn, that's hardcore! Also, probably really delicious since it's freshly made (to cook).
I opened my fridge, at may natitira pa akong produces sa loob. Kaya napabili ako ng pancit kahapon.
Hahahaha! Nice! I think that's the strength of pancit (canton, bihon, miki, sotanghon, all of them!) It's very easy to just take whatever's in your fridge and freestyle it.
π
I actually love pancit miki that's saucy, but not too saucy it belongs to the likes of lomi. The trickiest part of making pancit miki, though, is sourcing the noods. It has to be fresh, imo.

What is the meaning of "Alog" na pananalita
I was just throwing up names around. Dir En Grey had a song called "Decadence" and they were kind of "rebels" in that they weren't your usual visual kei band.
lol gumamit lang ako ng username generator.
It's an old one, made back in my weeb days. I was looking to register at some forum, and at the time, I was into an anime character wearing glasses.
From then on, I kept using it, partly because part of my identity has grown around that username, and has become disassociated from the anime character that inspired it.
This is an old username, I believe it's from a lyric from a song I liked to listen to a long time ago.
Was looking for a name for a game I used to play and checked a dictionary for inspiration. The word I checked was acacia, which led to acanthus, which led to akantha.
i was listening to the song while making a lemmy acct, haha! also was in the middle of thinking if i should keep my reddit acct or not
When I was making my Lemmy username, I was reminded of Oshi No Ko and KonoSuba so I went with the name "Aqua". As for the "synonym" part, I saw a Red Skull meme saying that the word "synonym" has no synonym - now I know there is actually a synonym for "synonym" (that's poecilonym)
Saw this book on some table, wanted an account. Put 2 and 2 together and poof ~~coco crunch~~ my username.
what
Hehe π
Mad Killah, 2002
Superproxy2k6 (one of my favorite songs) + 2019 (when I created my account in RD) = superproxy2k19.
(Napadaan lang ulit tonight hehe. π)
