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!

[ Seeing the name he ended up with he started to laugh. Oh god that was too funny. How many time's had he muttered those words after the mind numbing migraines kicked in.]

Well, I know I certainly can't complain!

Gotta be kidding me...

[trailertrashman]

...why? I mean, I know I'm trailer trash, why does the rest of the internet have to know?

I will never, ever forgive the idiot who thought this was a good idea.

[knightatheart]

I don't think I even know what that means.

B)

[srslynotguy]

Looks like somebody has the right idea.

Kasumi Goto | Mass Effect

[bestinthebusiness]

Well, it's hard to argue with that. Who knew this system would create something so flattering?

Hikaru | Seijuu Sentai Gingaman | Open

[gimmedonuts]

C'mon, I asked nicely, didn't I? And I'm hungry.

[naives]

You never had to use something so blunt...

[knightatheart]

Do I even want to know what that's supposed to mean?

[knightatheart]

Yeah, right.

I blame you for this.

[virtualunknown]

Briefly... there's next to nothing known about me and I'm rather good at creating virtual reality. [...among other things he'd rather not discuss with strangers.]

Yuri Lowell | Tales of Vesperia

[hopeofzaphias]

... I can roll with this, I guess.

[lancessquishy]

No, you don't.

I'm not sure if this is the best or worst possible joke that coule be made.

Vala Mal Doran | Stargate SG-1

Well, that just isn't even true.

I don't appreciate the reminder of that incident.

Kate Beckett | Castle

[smellslikecherries]

You've gotta be freaking kidding me.

[baremycross]

If you're really a liar, of course you'd say that.

[whereyoulead]

I don't even know man.

Shirou Emiya // Fate/stay night // lol

[dieswhenkilled]

I don't get it. I mean, of course when someone gets hurt too much, they die, but that's kind of a weird way to describe it. Makes me look like some kind of idiot.

[theliar]

Well. Yes. But I'm not!

Usually.
