And did you choose decent one this time or Rimjob_stew one?

    Incorporates my name with a positive attribute (at least imo), made the mistake at that other site, of a username that was pretty easy to reply ‘user name checks out’ in a negative connotation, even when asking legit questions or making positive comments. Hoping to get the same reaction on Lemmy but positive this time around!

    Awesome things I appreciate and/or identify with:

    • cookies
    • the blue monster that chomps them down
    • cats

    Surprisingly, so far my clever play on words has rarely been taken anywhere I signed up, so I use it for any accounts I don’t mind being link-able.

    it’s my name, with a 2k tacked onto the end, because I started using it a long time ago…

    dry sarcasm aside, I have many online “handles” I use but I found that I’m totally ok consilidating most of my online presence under my real google-able identity… MOST

    Misspelled ‘Fedaykin,’ the name for the fremen death commando in Dune.

    As edgelordy as that sounds, I mostly just liked the word. One spelling error creating a character in a game and I liked it better, so I kept using it.

    I like the Longest Johns who wrote a song called Moby Duck, and I also like Radio Caroline a group of old-school offshore pirate radio enthusiasts set to be the last British radio station left on AM pretty soon, they broadcast on 648 kHz.

    I got into an argument with my ex, and I came out of it feeling totally defeated and completely worthless; like nothing I ever said mattered to anyone. I deleted my first Reddit account and all my internet forum accounts the same night, since I had nothing to add to any discussion anywhere.

    When I finally climbed my way out of that despair pit (and that relationship), I made a new, half-ironic username on that theme. “ad acta” is Latin, and it literally translates to “from the archives”, but in common use it was a phrase meaning “irrelevant”. So Vox ad Acta is “Voice of the Irrelevant”.

    I have a fairly prickly personality IRL and online communities like this one make up the majority of regular interactions with people outside of my home; it’s my “distraction” from being an introverted grump. Plus my insides are mostly water and pulp, so I have that going for me.

    Blue skies are an image of good times and I have chronic depression. I like making people smile, though, so I keep it upbeat.

    I’m in California. Blue skies over California.

    I shortened the last bit because I’m into the whole brevity thing, dude.

    Never put the “original content”/OC thing together, but that works too.

    I am a fan of Gene Wolfe’s books, especially The Book of the New Sun. The main character of the books is named Severian, who claims he has ‘‘perfect memory’’ (or how he remembers things the way he prefers it)
