I wanted a short twitter handle and I read somewhere that the name xkcd came about because no username with actual meaning sticks as long as you yourself are changing. sure enough, it's been a long time with it now...
Yeah, idk man
Well, I work in commercial nuclear power, and I have since 2010, so.....yeah, I'm super creative.
I like reptiles, I like wraps.
I couldn't think of anything, so I went to random.org and generated a random string. ๐คทโโ๏ธ
I stole mine... at least that is how I remember it. I was a beta tester for Ragnarok Online way back in the day and there was a user run site with info on mobs and items from the game. I liked the name Nitros so much the next game I played I registered the name Nitros7. Since then I have used a version of that name pretty much where ever I go.
found a bug
It's a childish reason. I liked the username bytehead but most of them are taken so I ended up adding LW because I liked Daniel Lightwing from the movie "Brilliant Young Minds" x

I like pyramids!
I really liked David Gilmour's black strat and was GASing for one.
Ended up with a Fender Player strat that I swapped the pickguard on and now by GAS is relieved.
This nickname is just my name and last name initial.
Flash Gordon + Zordon from Power Rangers.
It's my name
the same for me ;)
I got mine from when I was in school, one of my friends use to draw comics and made a character based of each of his friends and this was the name of my character.
My nickname in real life is vi, I sometimes add a second vi because I think it's cute, and vox is Latin for voice, I think. So, vivivox. My voice.
Iโm a black man and a top (gay slang)
