    I had kidney cancer and so now I only have one kidney bean left in me. :)

    That's really cute and inspiring. I'm glad you're in good health now!

    My name comes from two of my favorite songs by Greg Dulli/The Afghan Whigs, Fat City, and 66... and it is so appropriate!

    Mine came from this old post below and the fact that I can be quite a smart *kitten*, but in a humorous way of course.

    I know I have a cute butt. You want to know how I know? Every time I have a conversation with someone as I turn to walk away they always whisper "What An *kitten*!"

    The kanji for my name can alternately read "yuu" and "en" so there is that.

    But Yuuen is also a character in a yaoi (guy on guy) manga I really adore. hahaaaaaaa;;; Double/triple meaning~

  • Billy De Lion was murdered by a pimp in St Louis on Christmas eve 1895. There are several different versions of the story throughout the last 100 years and over 50 different musicians (including Duke Ellington, Cab Calloway, Tina Turner, James Brown, the Black Keyes, and Amy Winehouse) have written songs about it, but my favorite and the most popular is certainly "Stagger Lee" by the Grateful Dead. I have provided a link to the Grateful dead lyrics as well as the Wikipedia page:

  • I looked in the mirror, said "Dagnabbit! You did it again." and it just came to me. Like a vision or epiphany or something.

    ^loved this answer!

    I am my own worst enemy, I've been told I have a very negative self image. My self esteem (or lack there of) suffers because of it, so I just used my first name (Rebekah) and added something to boost my self esteem (Awesome1)
    (I have a goal to become more awesome...)
  • this is a great thread!

    My favorite Far Side comic is the "Midvale School for the Gifted" it is ME so much of my life.
