I chose mine because one day I had nothing to do and was super bored, so I just stared at ceiling and blackedout. And mind you I wasn't tired or anything neither did I sleep, I just lost consciousness because I was bored.

Because my tiny little arms have been replaced with laser-cannons.

[-] HairyOldCoot@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 year ago

Self descriptive.

This my first nickname from when I start gaming on line : Star Craft - Broodwar.

[-] ArchmageAzor@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I wanted to add "the magnificent" to the end of it but it didn't fit so

It's the back of my name stuck on the front of my name. Also hope it makes me sound like a knight of the seven kingdoms.

[-] chris@fedia.io 3 points 1 year ago

I realised some time back that my first name backwards made me sound like a knight. I've failed to utilise this in usernames except maybe once.

I liked Ren and Stimpy when I was a kid first getting on the Internet.

[-] Nemo@midwest.social 4 points 1 year ago

It's my real name.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I was binge watching the show "Letterkenny" One of their plotlines was about a Ostrich. Allegedly.... Im Australian, No Ostriches, only Emus.

[-] EndlessApollo@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

There was a now deleted YouTube video by OneMinuteGalactica called "Apollo launches his viper funny" where Apollo from the original BSG tries to take off, but the launch tube just goes for miles and miles while the bridge crew and other pilots scramble to figure out what's going on. I thought the reference to it was funny and sounded cool when I was 15ish and it's pretty much stuck

[-] flop_leash_973@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Because it sounds perverse, slummy/moist, and randomly generated in equal measure.

[-] PopcornPrincess@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I like popcorn.

[-] jadedwench@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Well. I am a wench. And quite jaded. I wanted to make something I had not really used before, back when I joined the place that shall not be named, and it sort of stuck. I also really love the color green. If it makes you feel any better I am a much happier person today than I was then. Still a wench though. 😈

[-] taanneth@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Tanith was one of the goa'uld from Stargate SG-1 which I was a huge fan of as a kid. Back then I was not so good at spelling so I sounded it out and kept adding letters until I found a username that wasn't taken

[-] 18107@aussie.zone 3 points 1 year ago

I was trying to call someone an idiot, but I only had a calculator on hand. I also didn't consider talking as an option.

[-] SeaOfTrees@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

After one of the best songs from the band King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard. Fun fact: it's also the favorite song of their bassist!

[-] meyotch@slrpnk.net 3 points 1 year ago

Real name is Mitch and am somewhat irritable, so. . .

[-] nightmareofahorse@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I had a bad dream

[-] Susaga@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago

Because 10 year old me didn't know how to spell in japanese.

[-] LaggySnake@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Don't have the best internet and my favorite video game franchise is Metal Gear.

I was hoping to be generic. Also, to add to articles and photos on lemmy, I wanted random photos from users. I don't even care what they are. So far I've seen a beautiful landscape.

[-] _TK@lemmy.antemeridiem.xyz 3 points 1 year ago

TK is a journalism joke. In that field, placeholder headlines used to commonly be written in as "Headline TK" or "TKTKTK" etc. It comes from back when newspapers were typeset physically before set in lead to be sent to the printer. It is short for To Come. Many editing marks are misspelled on purpose to make them stand out from the final text. "TK" is an unusual pairing of letters, so it stands out.

[-] lunaticneko@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago

Not calm.

Not typical.

Full cat.

HISSSSSSSSSSS
