I like pizza, words with four 'z's, and palindromes. So I appended an 'ip' to pizzazz, and here we are!

My preferred username was already taken a long time ago. This was meant to be a temporary replacement, but now this is my preferred username.

It's the name of my youtube and twitch channels.

The name is a bit of a long story using text to speech in Sea of Thieves to annoy another crew. Tried getting to to speak in an irish accent and misspelled "charms" and the way the TTS said "chamrs" was just hilarious. So there we go.

Way back in the day I wanted my club penguin to be named sparky, but that name was already taken. So club penguin recommended to me sparky678348

Its the same username I had at the other place that shall not be named, until I got permabanned for reasons still unclear to me.

I originally joined via the swimming sub there, looking for recommendations on waterproof music players to use while swimming so I can listen to AC/DC and Motohead etc while swimming laps. I'm a bogan (Australian and New Zealand slang for a person whose speech, clothing, attitude and behaviour are considered unrefined or unsophisticated) and I swim laps every day. Therefore..... waterbogan

I'm a fan of BNA's tanuki main character Michiru, and i liked the Tanuki Sunset game, and how Tom Nook's name is pun with Tanuki and...

/Empire did nothing wrong.

Because it said I had to?

Or is the question, WHY did I choose THIS username?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Would be a very long comment but it's a reference Black Kettle's betrayal and murder by General Custer.

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.

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.

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.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Because of Russians.

Se got lots of immigrants from Ukraine these two years. One girl started going to our summer camp/all year group (something like Scouts) and started dated my friend. He keeps "dictionary" of mispronounced words.

There is lots of good usernames but "plactagonic relationship" was best at the time (it grew a lot since).
