Ok, so I just realized a funny coincidence... Technically science related.

For a few years I used "Arsenic" as a nickname online, a D&D character name, and a few other things. Just realized today that the abbreviation for Arsenic is "As". I didn't find out about being an Aspie until this past January.

I think it's funny that I'd pick out this name about 8 years ago and find out today that it shares an abbreviation with something I had all along and didn't know the name of.
