Explain what your SS name means to you

[ClownWorld2023]

It's just a reference to the current state of the world, but I suppose you could've already deduced that.

I'm just missing an accompanying profile picture.
Maybe if I have time I can try to make one.

 

[TransilvanianHunger]

Transilvanian Hunger is a fantastic Darkthrone album, and it's what I was listening to when I created my account.

 

[water bunny]

Ame mean rain in japanese, I love the Japanese culture and I also love the rain lol. And that's also the name of a character made by my favorite singer "tuyu".

Another tuyu fan?!! It's really nice to know there's other tuyu enjoyers in this forum

 

[rileywatson]

I used one of those random name generators on the internet. I picked this particular one over the others because it reminds me of one of my close friends.

 

[NeedAnEscape]

I need an escape from a world filled with people that do not understand what I am going through. This forum is my escape.

 

[I Can't Say]

"I Can't Say" is such a useful way to deflect questions. There are a lot of reasons why I might not want to say, and I don't have to pick one. But there's an interesting semantic ambiguity. "What's wrong?" "I can't say." I can't put the wrong thing into words? Or the wrong thing is the fact that I can't. I feel like the root of a lot of my problems is that I Can't Say.
What can't I say? Obviously, I can't answer that. A lot of things.
Why can't I say it? A lot of reasons. I don't know, or I want to avoid conflict, or the question doesn't even make sense to me, or the answer would just hurt too much.

It's also a Warhammer reference: the speaker is in a chaos cult and would probably end up as demon chow for answering.

 

[BlackMoon]

Mostly in reference to the poem in my signature.

 

[ben_]

It means nothing. I've literally generated a bunch of random names with BitWarden and chosen the least dumb one, skipping those like Scam1057, Vagueness9220, Spoilage3940, Crouch1416, Rupture1065, ...

But I want to rename myself to Ben when I'm able to. He only appears for couple minutes in the movie (Blue Velvet by David Lynch), yet it's my favorite scene (and favorite song). I guess I love his freakish but classy character.

 

[Nortu]

Its a sort of play on how to write «(I) Wonder when» in my language. Sounded cute so I just went for it

 

[penguinl0v3s]

Mine's a tribute to the suicidal person that I unwisely developed feelings for. I fall too easily. He's dead now.

 

[daze]

I find it hard to think sometimes because of brain fog, so i spent a lot of my time in a daze. That's why its my username

 

[Penquinman]

I like penquins and I'm a man. That's deep, I know.

 

[Blackpepperpancake]

It was what I ate to pity my life when I was 15, it had struck me since then, at first I set it to pancakewithblackpepper but it's too long so I shortened it to this one.

 

[loopdaloop]

there's a local bar that occasionally hosts animation screenings for an international competition with the title "loopdeloop", each time under a different theme such as: "job", "woops" etc. (link to the animation competition - https://www.loopdeloop.org/?fbclid=IwAR2wEFOB0B-sV0jMQe3DKIKPC_vkPqNvhomKMU3W0ucmXA2JyS4BvRlpmLM).

I thought it was kinda cool that the bar is supporting animators

 

[Leavesfromthevine]

It's the scene that makes me cry still. Knowing no one will ever feel that way about me. Uncle Iroh is who I aspire to be like while I'm still here.

RIP Mako (the singer/voice actor for Iroh). That song was simultaneously a tribute to him as he was dying from cancer

My username refers to a type of mycelial growth because I like to grow magic mushrooms :)

 

[monk-in-hell]

I set everything on fire and Im burning but I try to stay calm

 

[SpiritualDeath]

It's the name of this beautiful song!

 

[leloyon]

Le Loyon, a supposed "cryptid" from Switzerland.

Le Loyon

Le Loyon, also known as "The Ghost of Maules", was a supposed humanoid figure who was said to had haunt the woodlands near the Swiss town of Maules. Le Loyon is described as a tall humanoid creature dressed in a Gimp Suit and a gas mask that completely covers its head and face. The nature of its...

cryptidz.fandom.com

In reality, I think it was just someone who felt comfortable dressing how they did and enjoyed taking walks.
I relate to the few things known about them. Hell, especially the demonisation from the press and local community, despite doing nothing wrong.

 

[pointblank]

It is reflective of my headspace: *bang!*

 

[Forever Sleep]

It's from Star Wars: Return of the Jedi. Yoda says it:

'Soon will I rest, yes, forever sleep. Earned it I have.'

I've always thought it was a gentle way to look at death- a well deserved rest after all this life.

 

[Namelesa]

my name is just Nameless but replace the last letter with an A to make it sound more feminine.

 

[Punpun Onodera]

Mine is the main character of my favorite manga

 

[ijustwishtodie]

I just wish to die.

Honestly, the more accurate username should be "ijustwishtobedead" but I didn't really fully consider the distinction between dying and death back then. Also, I didn't use any spaces because I didn't know that I could.

 

[deepsweetdiver]

Its a little tribute to my first ctb attempt, I tried drowning and that would be my final, peaceful, sweet dive.

 

[TheHolySword]

Very old internet identity, I don't think any would recognize it as me or even remember. And if they do, it's good to see you again old friend, sorry we both ended up here somehow.

 

[dOm!n!K]

Mine is a fun reference to one of my comfort movies - Sala samobójców (Suicide room). The main character goes by 'dOm!n!K' in VRchatlike online site Create Yourself.

 

[lamy2006]

I really like fountain pens.
Lamy is a brand who makes pens and ink.
My first fountain pen was a Lamy Safari.

 

[avalokitesvara]

bodhisattva of infinite compassion, regarder of the cries of the world, always-returner, never resting until all sentient beings are saved

 

[ShatteredSerenity]

I spent 20 years working to build a life of serenity with my wife and daughters, but it all was shattered this year by mental illness and divorce.
