the yeas have it: return of the username meme


the USERNAME meme

Journal names. They're something we all think about, and that we often try to make as fittingly torturous to our characters as possible. Isn't it nice that our characters never have to know they're wandering around with that horrible label attached to them?

...wouldn't it be fun if they did?

RULES

1 Your character is communicating with others through a journal community, just like how we're using them, and they are perfectly aware of that fact. Whether they think that's normal or not is totally up to you.

2 The also know that when they signed on to this community, they were automatically assigned a name that supposedly has something to do with their personality and/or history. They didn't have any say in what that name was going to be, they're just stuck with it.

3 Make a post with your character's reaction to seeing what their own username is. Do they think it fits? Do they hate it with a passion? Are they downright confused?

4 Comment to other people's posts with your character's reactions to everyone else's usernames. If they know the other character, they might have good reason to laugh at them or feel sorry for them. If they don't, this could lead to some pretty interesting first impressions, don't you think?

5 If you want to use a name that's different from your actual journal name, just mark that in your post. No need to create a whole new journal just to make your character's life worse for one meme. ;)

6 PROFIT!

That's unfortunate...the implication makes me a little sad for you. Look how cute you are, though, so there's that?

[personal profile] deathdick 2014-06-05 12:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Thanks, I guess.

[personal profile] imatter 2014-06-05 03:04 pm (UTC)(link)
So does that mean it's been a while for you, big guy?

[personal profile] deathdick 2014-06-05 04:50 pm (UTC)(link)
That's kinda personal.
imatter: ((~) talky ◊ oh so sweet girl)

[personal profile] imatter 2014-06-05 06:01 pm (UTC)(link)
I've heard I have issues with personal boundaries. Sorry to offend. But if it has been, maybe you just need the right person to break the streak of bad luck. Just a thought.

[personal profile] deathdick 2014-06-05 06:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Sure. Another right person can end up dead.

[personal profile] imatter 2014-06-05 08:13 pm (UTC)(link)
...or not...

[personal profile] deathdick 2014-06-05 08:28 pm (UTC)(link)
The odds really aren't good.

They are when you're already dead, sweetie. You don't know me, I could be different.

[personal profile] deathdick 2014-06-05 11:51 pm (UTC)(link)
You'd think so but the demon he fucked died as well Why would you want to try? The only thing you know about me is that people I sleep with tend to die. I'm not seeing the draw here.
imatter: ((~) tate ◊ talky ◊ so horny)

[personal profile] imatter 2014-06-06 12:22 am (UTC)(link)
Because you're pretty and I'm horny. There's also the part where I'm pretty sure even your dick of doom can't kill me. Larry beat you to that with a shovel to my face.

[personal profile] deathdick 2014-06-06 01:06 am (UTC)(link)
Uhm... well, if you really want, maybe we could go on a date?
imatter: ((+) smile ◊ smug ◊ look up)

[personal profile] imatter 2014-06-06 01:15 am (UTC)(link)
You're the dating type? I'm not, but if you'd rather, then okay.

[personal profile] deathdick 2014-06-06 01:24 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah... I don't usually have time for dating, but it might be nice to give it another try.

Where can I pick you up?
imatter: ((+) talky ◊ flirty ◊ beer ◊ club)

[personal profile] imatter 2014-06-06 01:27 am (UTC)(link)
Are you anywhere near LA? I could make dinner, there's a gazebo out back at my house oh my God I hate that fucking thing, but I can't leave, it'll be cute, private, and most importantly, free.

[personal profile] deathdick 2014-06-06 01:30 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, actually. That sounds nice he's going to need to exorcise the fuck out of that house. Just send me the address and a time, and I'll be there.
imatter: ((+) smile ◊ lay down ◊ pretty girl)

[personal profile] imatter 2014-06-06 02:31 am (UTC)(link)
You better believe it, big guy. It's kind of hard to miss, if you're familiar at all with LA; it's the "Murder House" on the Eternal Darkness tour. ...also known as [address]. Whenever you want, handsome, I have all the time in the world.

[personal profile] deathdick 2014-06-06 10:57 pm (UTC)(link)
The Murder House. Right.

I'll stop by later tonight.

[personal profile] imatter 2014-06-06 11:16 pm (UTC)(link)
I know, I know, tell me about it. Try living there.

See you then.
