This is my last post today, I swear. This is something new I'm trying out; I thought it would be fun to do discussion question posts like once a week or something where I post a question, and people respond in the comments. If it works out I might start a new world for discussions (still got 3 left!)
Okay, so this week's question is: how did you choose your username? I always wonder what people's names mean and how they ended up with them. Like, what's the origin story?
For example, my name, WildGirl1977, is a reference to (surprise!) a rock song. When I join a new website, I feel like I'm saying, hello world, this is me, I'm gonna be here for a while. And the phrase "Hello world" makes me think of the chorus of "Cherry Bomb" by The Runaways" "Hello world, I'm your wild girl!" And then 1977 is the year the first Star Wars movie and the first Clash album came out, so it's a big deal to me-I think plain old WildGirl was taken, and I needed to slap on some numbers. I also sometimes go by KabukiGirl1977 if WildGirl is already taken- "Kabuki Girl" is a song by The Descendants.
So that's my name's story-what's yours? Respond in the com box, and let's see if we can get a fun discussion going.
