How Did You Get Your Username

Post Reply New Topic

FORTRAN '77 is an old computer language that I was forced to learn (?) in college. It was the 1977 version of the language and FORTRAN '77 was the title of the textbook. I really hated that class.

One day was trying to think of a user name for something or other and the textbook title FORTRAN '77 just popped into my head. I've been using it for quite a while now for various user names (PSN for example). Some people recognize it (some real nerds), but most people just think I was born in 1977.

It's a combination of Equestria, the kingdom in which My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic is set in, and the city of Los Angeles, California. Thusly, my name is supposed to be interpreted as "From Equestria to Los Angeles".

Mine just popped into my head.

I like darkness and I like rain, hence the name "DarkRain".

My username is one of the Welsh spelling of my real name.

An Italian roommate at a hostel called me Ruru and since I'm Asian I put fu behind it as in kung-"fu" hehe

I first came up with my username the short time I was playing RuneScape (about a month or two?) because it sounded so mythological putting the words Myth and Don together and I didn't even know the true meaning behind the words at the time I was 12. However when I put the words together my Mythdon name has no meaning, it's just what it says It's just I like the sound of the pronunciation when I say Mythdon as in mith-don

Hi.

Battlestar Galactica was first produced the year I was born.

Caprica Six was the first of the 12 models to experience human emotions.

After my experience of epiphany and recovery in the wake of a big personal disaster, I was much more self-aware and better understood myself, my situation and how I am as compared to how I thought I was. So, at last, I know who I am now.

Well, I got my username, because I am an train enthusiast.
I am originally from Bonn, Germany, but now live in Munich for my studies.
For my travels from Munich back home to Bonn ~5:45h per way I mostly tend to take ICE-T 411 series trains, that are equiped with tilting technology, allowing higher speeds on curving lines.
I think that tilting technology is a great technology to reduce travel time on conventional rail lines.
Therefore my username.

I actually chose my avatar before my username, and when I looked at this cute little fanart of Legolas, I could only think of the name "Lovemuffin".

All the "Tests" seem to ask the question "do you like to read fiction" - with the implication that you'll answer no if you're on the spectrum. I like to read fiction. At least most. For some very specific reasons. Which I would be happy to debate are very ASD in nature .

Thus:

Odd [that I like] Fiction.
