Ask Lemmy

I casted spells

I got it off of a hair dryer.

From Ren and Stimpy. Powdered Toast Man,

I am an idiot.

I played with someone on the psvita that had this name. One day he said see you tomorrow and never logged back on. I took his name now. I only use it for forums tho

I thought it'd help to be descriptive.

I'm really bad at name creation and wanted to try a character in an online game. Who could have guessed the name "try" was already taken... So I turned it around, it sounded alright for a dwarf char and 15 years later it's still my username.

All the other names I use were taken =]

I was 9, I like video games, my first name is Harry

Almost 20 years later and there are people IRL who call me "gamer" and not "Harry"

I was in a hurry creating a lemmy account and spewed out the first thing that came to my mind

I'm in witness protection. Turns out not all girls are made of just sugar and spice.

Big fan of the Polish Hussars.

It's a mnemonic major variation of Jake that is usually available... And I came to dot world before the first 2k users joined but after "Jake" was taken.

It got rejected when I suggested it as a name for a Corvette class light frigate, despite it sounding awesome

QA for a 3PL. Apparently QA didn't prior to my arrival try things like entering words in zipcode entry boxes, typing 65537 letters into an address field, or holding the shift key when selecting which State to ship to.

I made a lot of, well not what I would call enemies but I wasn't exactly friends with any of the developers.

I'm ready good at killing rocks in Minecraft

Total mystery to me

I got a gift.

Random word list

There was this user named dolphinfucker69 that posted a really elaborate text post about fucking dolphins and became a sort of microcelebrity on certain subreddits that I am not proud of frequenting so I won't name. If you know you know. Anyway he eventually got banned and it was memed on for a while and he did some ban evasion. I needed a new account at the time and figured a name similar to that might make some people laugh. So here we are

The intro of Power Stone on the Dreamcast.

It was my user number in high school. A decade ago.

Im a pig with a doctorate, and one has figured it out yet!

Govt-issued

A fun conversation about goats milk while on acid and whip its lol

Honestly? I was trying too hard.

I was a teenager and I thought RadX sounded cool (this was a full year before Fallout 1 came out, so I don't think it had any other inspiration). A few years later, I wanted a little continuity, but also something not quite so cringe-worthy. A single "i" fixed it.

Divine inspiration more than 20 years ago.

First time I was prompted for a username, I happened to have a Roadkill Cafe poster on my wall. Couldn't find anything better in my room unless I was going to use "LampBookDumbassCat"

Uhh. I was inspired by a manager.

What are you, a cop?

Jk but for real, how'd you get your username?

I like dark souls

I use a Dvorak keyboard and am not very creative.

I've always used wildcard since the early 2000s. But nowadays wildcard is often used up already without adding numbers to it. So I combined wildcard and cardology and no I don't know anything about cardology.

It's my stage name

JustTheTip was taken. So I had no choice what so ever
