My name is not Tony
My favorite song from an artist
Self descriptive.
song by a band that fitted with my habit of nuking my PC every couple of weeks, either because I wanted to try a different Linux distro or because I got some kind of Limewire chlamydia
This my first nickname from when I start gaming on line : Star Craft - Broodwar.
Mine was easy
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.

I liked Ren and Stimpy when I was a kid first getting on the Internet.
No anime.
What about Pingu 2017: https://myanimelist.net/anime/36259/Pingu_in_the_City

It's my real name.
Because it sounds perverse, slummy/moist, and randomly generated in equal measure.
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
I like popcorn.
I was binge watching the show "Letterkenny" One of their plotlines was about a Ostrich. Allegedly.... Im Australian, No Ostriches, only Emus.
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. 😈
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
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!
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.
Real name is Mitch and am somewhat irritable, so. . .
I had a bad dream
Because 10 year old me didn't know how to spell in japanese.
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.
I just think they're neat
I love reading books
Don't have the best internet and my favorite video game franchise is Metal Gear.
I used to always play Pyro in Team Fortress Classic and would just run around setting people on fire and then running away. It was my only strategy and so I adopted the name.

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.
