I guess I’m a sucker for puns.

[–] MildlyIncorrect@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

I just like dogs...

[–] BitsOfBeard@programming.dev 2 points 1 year ago

I used the same moronic username I got from a name generator for 20 years before Reddit was trashed. I took the opportunity to reinvent myself. I'm a techie with a beard....

[–] ArcaneSlime@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 year ago

Am arcane and slimy, was descriptive.

It's been my internet identity / haxxorz handle since the 1990s, and the story is about as benign as Gordon Matthew Thomas Sumner and his black-and-yellow striped sweater.

[–] mrchampion@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Years ago, when I was around 13-14, I wanted a "cool" sounding username, since I was also sick of coming up with usernames for websites. I did some thinking, and came up with "Mr.Champion". Used it ever since.
