[-] webpack@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I originally chose this as my Minecraft nickname, it's the name of a JavaScript library that I used (https://webpack.js.org)

[-] Wussy@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I'm afraid to say why.

[-] MegaTony@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

My name is not Tony

[-] TheBestUsername@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Mine should be obvious.

[-] beta@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 1 year ago

Beta as in Beta Pictoris, a cool star.

[-] whyNotSquirrel@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 year ago

I don't remember my username

[-] ColdWater@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I lived in Tropical country and iced cool water is the best

[-] SangriaFerret@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Randomly generated by another website and I thought it was funny.

[-] faintwhenfree@lemmus.org 4 points 1 year ago

I chose mine because one day I had nothing to do and was super bored, so I just stared at ceiling and blackedout. And mind you I wasn't tired or anything neither did I sleep, I just lost consciousness because I was bored.

[-] SidonMyHardOn@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I just want to have a good time

[-] jadedwench@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Well. I am a wench. And quite jaded. I wanted to make something I had not really used before, back when I joined the place that shall not be named, and it sort of stuck. I also really love the color green. If it makes you feel any better I am a much happier person today than I was then. Still a wench though. 😈

[-] Blastasaurus@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

Because my tiny little arms have been replaced with laser-cannons.

[-] aceshigh@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

iron maiden song, a poker hand, and my name has 2 a's.

[-] TurboNewbe@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

This my first nickname from when I start gaming on line : Star Craft - Broodwar.

[-] Cyo@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

1: Has just three letters. 2: Doesn't really mean anything. 3: I like how it sounds.

[-] NotSpez@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

Mine was easy

[-] ConstipatedWatson@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Well, I'm waiting to drop a standard line that can be deduced from my username, but I still haven't landed a good post to do so...

Also, I wanted it to be disjoint from my former Reddit usernames

Two random nouns

[-] EndlessApollo@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

There was a now deleted YouTube video by OneMinuteGalactica called "Apollo launches his viper funny" where Apollo from the original BSG tries to take off, but the launch tube just goes for miles and miles while the bridge crew and other pilots scramble to figure out what's going on. I thought the reference to it was funny and sounded cool when I was 15ish and it's pretty much stuck

[-] Ultra980@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I have no f***ing idea.

[-] noodle@feddit.uk 4 points 1 year ago

I like noodles

[-] flop_leash_973@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Because it sounds perverse, slummy/moist, and randomly generated in equal measure.

[-] TheEEEdiot@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 year ago

I liked Ren and Stimpy when I was a kid first getting on the Internet.

[-] PopcornPrincess@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I like popcorn.

[-] ArchmageAzor@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I wanted to add "the magnificent" to the end of it but it didn't fit so

[-] Steeve@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 year ago
[-] Smokeydope@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I like to smoke dope.

[-] SendMePhotos@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I was hoping to be generic. Also, to add to articles and photos on lemmy, I wanted random photos from users. I don't even care what they are. So far I've seen a beautiful landscape.

[-] 18107@aussie.zone 3 points 1 year ago

I was trying to call someone an idiot, but I only had a calculator on hand. I also didn't consider talking as an option.

[-] Poggervania@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

It’s an alteration of an older PSN name I used a while back and it has a really nice ring to it.

[-] LaggySnake@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Don't have the best internet and my favorite video game franchise is Metal Gear.

[-] Susaga@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago

Because 10 year old me didn't know how to spell in japanese.

[-] SendMeBakedBeans@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I just think they're neat

[-] IndisposedShakerCup@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I left a shaker cup with some drink mix in there for weeks, totally forgot about it. Now it's a science project
