From an old clip that played on a radio station back home "Sittin' on the porch with my ol' lady, eatin' a ham-sammich"

My username? Cuz I've had it since like 2003 or so, possibly even earlier. I'm a simple man, I like consistency.

Don't you worry people will be able to find what you were up to elsewhere in the past?

Wanted to be crass and nerdy, simultaneously.

[–] IPimpMickeyMouse 2 points 1 year ago

I just hate Disney

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I used the same moronic username I got from a name generator for 20 years before Reddit was trashed. I took the opportunity to reinvent myself. I'm a techie with a beard....

[–] HankMardukas 2 points 1 year ago

I'm your best friend.

My name is the spell that I can cast in real life. Not as good as a real Muscle Wizard's, but it's something

I was in a little cafe in Taiwan and that's what we ordered.

I'm a fan of BNA's tanuki main character Michiru, and Summer Tanuki's storyline, and how Tom Nook's name is pun with Tanuki and...

The stars just aligned for me, I swear.

Old internet nickname, back in the MSN Messenger days.

I couldn't come up with shit so I put a random word through a cipher and switched a few letters around

[–] banneryear1868 2 points 1 year ago

Would be a very long comment but it's a reference Black Kettle's betrayal and murder by General Custer.

I combined my dog's names (Kona and Loki) but fucked it up the first time I ever used it as a username. It was supposed to be "Kolonaki" taking the first two letters of Kona and the first two of Loki then alternating in the second half of both. KoLoNaKi. But I accidentally entered "KolAnaki" and just ran with it.

I liked it so much, I made it my fursona's name since before that name was just "Raccoon."

I love Dorohedoro, and Aikawa happens to be one of the manga's kindest and least prone to violence characters, despite being very capable in the domain. The turned k comes from my thoughts flitting from the character's nature to the Portuguese velar (to watch, conceal, vigil), and finally to back-released velar clicks...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Because it's a pejorative term for a loud-mouthed know-it-all bloviating idiot and I like to keep myself humble and try not to take myself too seriously.

[–] Akuma 2 points 1 year ago

Akuma is a boss. Been my favorite all through my childhood.

[–] CaptPretentious 2 points 1 year ago

I thought it was funny

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

My preferred username was already taken a long time ago. This was meant to be a temporary replacement, but now this is my preferred username.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I sometimes say things that may not be 100% correct. I’m only human.
