    I took the species name of my favourite tarantula and modified the spelling to conform with UK spelling (because us ex-colonies still use UK spelling)

    Steam account.

    I actually don't have ADHD, but AADD. It makes me hyper focused yet strings of multiple commands get difficult to manage. TheAADDTurnip just doesn't have that same identifiable ring to it.

    And Turnips, what's more random than a turnip?

    So now you know.

    An old friend of mine in middle school would make up silly nicknames for me. One was rebaholic so I just changed it to becaholic and now I use it for everything. Too bad we aren't friends anymore, we had some fun times

    Nietzsche. It's Latin and translates to "Love of ones fate".

    This was the first username I used on the internet back on Yahoo on AOL. I suppose it was around 1995 or thereabouts. Not even sure why I used it here because I created this username a while ago but dropped off the face of the planet for awhile and when I came back and had to put in my information to get my username back, it said this. MY reply to myself was "What in the hell did you use that one for, ya moron?".

    That's an old, old nickname btw...the story attributed to it still classified at the highest level. That means I'm probably the only one who still remembers it and why.

    Well color me curious, now I want to hear the story!

    OK, but don't tell anyone. I used to race three-wheelers back in the day when they still sold them. I wasn't very good, but I had fun. Well, except for one instance where I crashed and somehow managed to ding what little brain I have, and not realizing where I was walking, stumbled back on the track and got hit by another racer.

    Hence the nickname: DAZE

    There ya go, this message will self destruct in five seconds, minutes...whenever.

    I’m vegan. I always have a giant bowl on the dining table filled with bananas. My fiancé calls it my “Banana Forest,” so I figured I’d use that as my user name on mfp! :)

    Inspired by a Bath and Body Works body mist I was obsessed with in high school. The 1 at the end is a meaningless number.

    I teach reading. Our school mascot is the knight. so, Knightreader it is. Plus, was huge fan of David Hasselhoff and it was close to Knight Rider. Just kidding, Baywatch was much better show.

    Mine is a play on my middle name. When I was little I couldn't pronounce my middle name very well and this was how I said it.
