A lot of us have user names here that are significant to ourselves. I like to analyze them, and more times than not the name can be deciphered more than one way.
Can you explain why your username is what it is? ------- OP goes first. I started to use this site before I knew windows very well, and I guess also in those days the cookies lasted shorter in a user's computer. And I hate to type repetitive stuff. At the time I did not know how to use autocomplete, and also did not know how the computer "remembers" information and passwords. So I chose WUX, which is short, to the point, means nothing, so it confuses my enemies right off the bat, because they try to find meaning where there is none. I also liked it because on another site pics were not shown on forum entry listings, and on posts in threads, so I wanted something that was easy to spot even when one glanced over a page of posts quickly. W, U and X are sort of attention-grabbing letters. The othe... Hey! Letters used in a user's moniker eventually assume their owner's personality, sooner or later! What an incredible sociological insight. =============== Pray tell us what your moniker means to you and why you chose it for yourself.

Stupid
Old Ugly Fat Incontinent, and given to Exaggeration I made it up because I was not going to put a picture up, and I thought it would be a great screen for the..non-intrepid :-) If they asked. No one did for over a year and a half hahaha Oh, and I had to add the 'here' to it because some FREAK already had that name. |

I was going to name my first born daughter Soufie. I guess I'll have to come up with something else. :P |

Shannon's my name, Marie was SUPPOSED to be my middle name, but was changed at the last minute, and 21 is the day on which I was born. Pretty boring.

I'm not responsible for my name. I didn't even originally sign up for this site - my buddy's wife signed me up. She came up with the name.
Roaming Orator: Roaming, because it seems like I've been everywhere and Orator, because I have a story about all those places. |
