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!

I can imagine.

[ Ugh, this body. ]

Fuck Dash, you're one crazy dead bitch.

[glassworkgenius]

[ Have a sympathetic backpat, friend.;; ]

[solbrave]

Better to make a dynamic exit than a dull one.

[If you've got to go out, do it in style! Graham knows a thing or two about that...]

[glassworkgenius]

It's based on interpretation. You... probably don't really want to know.

[shenevermisses]

Y'know. Somehow? It's not that simple.

go team live-action crime drama??

[but he's so curious now!!]

Cherry shampoo?

[justnumbers]

It never is. But you can still try? It beats letting it eat you up inside.

[glassworkgenius]

Nah. I've seen stranger back home!

[ One of the few series that can match up to Pokémon's crazy 'dos, honestly. And don't worry Kyouhei he's at least asking permission first. ]

Can I pet it?

[notquiteheartless]

It won't be boring.

Sherlock Holmes - BBC's Sherlock

[notquiteheartless]

[Hmph.]

[shenevermisses]

Pretty big assumption there.

[righteousrebel]

... Muns.

[second_star]

Man, and I thought I had bad luck. You guys should probably just go home.

[knightatheart]

Either that or they're doing this on purpose.

[drunkenwisdom]

And does that mean you have tequila or is this going to be another big disappointment?

[do not disappoint her, buckethead. do not.]

It's totally right.

[justnumbers]

Personal experience talking, friend. I had a chance once to take the shot. Hesitated just long enough for the slimy git to get away. It still ticks me off whenever I think about it.

[vigilantic]

[Sittin' over here, laughing at all your usernames.]

[nesthair]

Stranger?

[He doesn't think his hair is particularly...strange, but he doesn't take it as an insult, either.]

Mmm. I guess so. Since you were nice enough to ask and all.

[He tips his head down a bit to make it easier.]

[imalwaysright]

Gotta say I like mine better than yours.

[shenevermisses]

...Uh-huh. And because that happened to you, you're giving me advice about my life, which isn't yours and a miss that's not like yours.

Good plan. Really. Totally spot on.

i've died and gone to heaven

[Neal, you are welcome to smell Kate anyday~]

Chapstick. Though shampoo isn't a bad idea for those "hours in the morgue" days.

[snarkymorale]

Look who's laughing, Mr.Vigilantic.

[tequilaselai]

If I did, you wouldn't be able to drink it.

[lol, biology.]
