Strawberry cheesecake is my favourite dessert and 7 is my favourite number.

I'm a femme fatale.

I changed to this username when I saw a thread about a school getting funny about the contents of a kids’ lunch box.

AncientSkaterGirl · 13/03/2024 15:14

I'm no longer 21 (and havent been for quite some time) and love skating (ice, roller,quad) and dress like a aging skater 🤣

I drink too much tea

A lovely poster on my divorce threads said I should be called my username instead of the one I had. So I changed it.

@LilacpointMummy , your cats are beautiful and look so chilled.
My user name is my football team.

@fortifiedwithtea there is no such thing as too much tea!!

Mine is the word my mam has always used to describe a woman having big boobs 🤣

Wow, that has brought back so many memories, my Mum used that expression too. Mine is really boring, part of a phrase we had to use in legal documents in a previous job.

Guess…

I say it quite often when I see an elderly neighbour at the door. I think she must have appeared at the moment I was trying to think of something interesting to call myself.

Said by Maude to Harold in my favourite film (Harold and Maude, if you’re not familiar with it!)

FortunataTagnips · 13/03/2024 15:19

Mine is from a Twitter account that posts amazing real names from historic censuses, parish registers,
etc.

My previous name, SomethingNastyInTheBallPool, reflected the amount of time I was spending at soft play at that point.

haynesforhome · 13/03/2024 15:20

I change name after every few posts and use whatever is in my line of sight. On this occasion it's a DIY manual but it could be a colour combination, a bird, an amalgamation of words.

ZebraTree · 13/03/2024 15:20

I change my name a lot.

Mines what I saw when I looked around as I last changed it.

HalfAVirgin · 13/03/2024 15:20

It's related to something Regina George said in Mean Girls

FortunataTagnips · 13/03/2024 15:21

@Wolfiefan My illusions are shattered. I’d imagined you really
loved Citizen Smith.

Song lyric that always makes me smile.

NotTooOldPaul · 13/03/2024 15:23

Because some people do think I am old,
I am not old I am only 76.

You're as young as you feel!! I think I'm permanently about 25! The kids, husband and mortgage are a perpetual shock.

It's a character I like in a story I also like. And it suits me.
