my username is a product of doing too much lsd and my thoughts about psychedelics being somewhat religious and helped bring about new thought/realizations to humans...blah blah blah ramble ramble...and it rhymes!

like nieh, my avatar is from earthbound. its mr.saturn! earthbound is the greatest rpg ever, it far surpasses all present day rpgs...and most games in general. i traded a $100 starwars encyclopedia for the game+strategy guide when i was 13. best trade of my life. still have the guide and the scratch and sniff card that came with it...it doesnt smell any more.

Because typing it once started a perpetual circle of it being false for 364 days, then true for one day. It's like a pointy sign that says "north" mounted on a moving carousel.

Alternately, it makes every day my birthday.

I just figured I needed something with a little more ambiguity.

Pretty sure that "mec" is the French equivalent of guy/dude. So if it's ambiguity you want, you've got plenty. :lol:

A friend of mine randomly called me snipelfritz one day way back in '03/'04 and I've used it on forums ever since. I wish I had spelled it snipplefritz because that's how I've always intended it to be said, but for consistency's sake, I haven't.

Avatar is a baby bunny from cute overload or something. I used to have the cover of Sly and the Family Stone's Stand! as an avatar, but I think everyone thought I was an angry black man who was yelling all the time. Baby bunny is much more non-threatening.

So now we think you are an angry black man who owns a bunny???

I thought Kbit was black because of his avatar: I have to stop assuming people look like the avatars. Especially Aen

Scruffie... cause i'm quite scruffy in appearance, can't really remember where it came from other than that, signed up to one forum with it and then just started using it all over... a lot of people think it's from Futurama though, pretty sure it wasn't...

Avatar... Cause Prince.

"Schlatte" is the name one of my classmates gave me in 1st grade because I'm living in a small village with only ~100 people and more cows than people... and that village is called "Schlatten im Rosental" so yeah... Schlatte...
The avatar is just my "MOM-D" (stands for Mom-Devices) "logo" but .gif animated.

Ummm name is the band i play in..... which is really just a pseudonym for an olde head (or a grown up toker for all ye less "experienced" peeps) crossed with my fascination with the ancient alien theory

and the avatar is just a random alien head avatar i found on google images, one of these day's i'll make my own.... it will probably just be a pic of a gibson tony iommi pickup :picard:
