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!

Well, I am.

[He sips his coffee. Phil Connnors, ex-immortal thanks to time loops, thought he was actually a god, how do you do?]

Mmm. What makes ya say that, pal?

[Said skeptically, but not unkindly.]

[bearysweet]

Oh... OH!! I'll take it as a compliment~

[firstbump]

I like it. Glad I didn't get stuck with some of the other names you've made over the years.

[queenofgods]

I see no need for an explanation.

[littleq]

I don't like it.

[nanoprobes]

Even you can't always get what you want.

[dssploded]

I suppose that's accurate, though it's not what I would prefer, for Shinji's sake.

[a_good_doghter]

... I....

[eights_and_aces]

Just sobs....

[halfaleg]

Three-quarters was taken.

[wolfwithangerissues]

So don't piss me off.

[forcefullyunstable]

Glad to know I’m not the only one in this boat.

[fishjokes]

[Just a look of utter disappointment.]

[have_no_mercy]

Oh, come on. It's kind of cute.

[battleswithin]

Hm.

[Well, after seeing dyaddy one can hardly be picky.]

I've had plenty without as well.

[Like that helps.]

[bewithme]

"Plenty" seems like an understatement.

[flatlinggun]

I definitely do NOT approve of this!

[reluctantaccessory]

It’s just a terrible joke.

[wearethespark]

It’s, uh, a reminder of sorts.

[mindflip]

... Really?

[wapow]

... [Kara is just cringing because her username just reminded her how much of an awkward dork with a crush she was around James Olsen.]

[irondad]

Cute but, the significance is lost on me here.

[lovedunce]

... Huh?

[Of course Katarina doesn't get it.]

[currian]

Aww, come on!

[Thanks Yuki!]

This makes me sound like I'm an alien from another planet!

[icandoanything]

Weeeeellll, I mean, it's my whole "thing". [beat] Kim Possible: I can do anything!

[complains_about_lemons]

Eeeeverything is just turning up Kim Possible, isn't it?

[Cue much grumbling, arms crossed. And proving the point.]

[notsochillya]

[ Illya is slightly unamused. ]

"I am chill."

[balanceact]

"You look pretty hot to me."

[reymarkable]

It's still an awful pun!

[bewithme]

We are remarkable. At least they got one thing right.

[prodigalmess]

[ He looks at it and shrugs. ]

It's technically the less common definition of the word 'prodigal', but... I can't really argue with it.

[evilkoala]

[Stitch is just sitting here, drinking a mug of rootbeer, trying not to be suspicious or anything.

Evil? Him? Naaaaah. siiiiiiip]

[bewithme]

[ .....but he's adorable.

Can she adopt him. ]

[cannottellalie]

Someone once called it a 'regurgitative reaction to mistruthing'...

[ It takes him a moment but there's a very small smirk coming to his lips. ]

Oh, it most certainly is, isn't it...?

[ Lotus Juice plays softly from the speakers nearby. ]
