Essentially, I want us to sound like cavemen.

I'll start:

HomesliceAbe was playing Mario kart and HomesliceAbe's dad couldn't think of name of one of courses (HomesliceAbe thinks name was "Moonview Highway?). HomesliceAbe's dad called course "Homeslice Highway" and HomesliceAbe thought new name was hilarious. Also, HomesliceAbe is big fan of Abraham Lincoln.

[–] noobdoomguy8658@feddit.de 4 points 1 year ago

When kid, play Doom much. Be critical inside, think low of own skills. Also love metal - love 666, love 13. Multiply 666 and 13, get 8658. Combine all - get noobdoomguy8658. Now happy, feel witty.

IRC nicks were max'd at 8 characters and listed alphabetically. Given that dogs are no-go!, to choose name that made full use was simple.

Edit: See some fails in this thread.
