The Harry from Tom, Dick and Harry, because MNers share everything with them!

MoominKoalaAndMiniMoom · 18/02/2015 17:29

Been called Moomin all my life by my family.
Koala came from when I decided to be part of the Koala Quiche on here.
And my Mini Moom came along last April so I added that on too Grin

Life is ....

dayslikethis · 18/02/2015 17:36

It's based on the Van Morrison song - one of my favourites and one which I keep coming back to as a reminder that we all have ups and downs and that's normal - No-one has it all perfect all the time - even they have "days like this"

BlueKarou · 18/02/2015 17:37

Karou is the lead character in some rather excellent books, and she has blue hair. I very much like the character, and wish my hair could be always blue (it is currently about 1/3 blue, a fact I find quite distressing!)

Aherdofmims · 18/02/2015 17:40

Mine is a joke about how my (at the time) newborn appeared to view mothers/women (i.e. as heard animals that he hoped to milk!).

"sad sweet dreamer"

I was independent with a great job (journalist) then had kids and broke my back.

I had to use a zimmer for ages, but now I'm using 2sticks, but it was taken. Who knows? Might NC to 1stick one day. Or LookNoSticks.

ArmyDad · 18/02/2015 17:44

Like Ronseal exactly what it says on the tin. I'm in the Army and I'm a dad

MaudieAtkinsonsGardeningHat · 18/02/2015 17:47

I like Maudie Atkinson from To Kill a Mockingbird.

Particularly her gardening hat...

JackShit · 18/02/2015 17:48

Mine means fuck all.

AnnieMorel · 18/02/2015 17:48

I'm in Sons and Lovers.

AuntyDiluvian · 18/02/2015 17:51

Mine is a tres clever pun on 'antediluvian' or old/old-fashioned. I am not really an aunty but sometimes self-identify that way.

NobodyLivesHere · 18/02/2015 17:55

There are huge parts of the US where nobody lives. I saw it on a map that was pretty

QueenStromba · 18/02/2015 18:17

I'm named after a troll on another forum who would be hopping mad if he knew there was a poster on MN with a piss take of his name.

andadietcoke · 18/02/2015 18:24

I ordered a massive McDonald's years ago 'and a diet coke'. Just seemed utterly ridiculous to try and save calories even though I prefer the taste of diet coke

Solidur · 18/02/2015 18:26

I love this thread.Smile

I am an ultra high molecular density polymer from Todmorden. Grin

Years ago, DF used to work in an industry which uses UHMDPs - Solidur had just been developed/invented, and a salesperson brought a sample to DFs workplace.

It's the size and shape of a coaster, DF helped himself and it's still in use at DPs as a drinks coaster!

I've always liked the word.Blush

WoTmania · 18/02/2015 18:32

Should be WoTmania? but you can't use punctuation in NNs. It's a fantastic and fabulous series of books that I have no mania about at all.

hoobygalooby · 18/02/2015 18:32

I'm a character from The Hoobs, a kids tv programme which used to be on channel 4 at stupid o'clock when my kids were little! I still remember all the songs and characters but I dont think it's even on anymore

tilliebob · 18/02/2015 18:34

It's my two dearly departed dogs names.

GiantGaspingSatanicCyst · 18/02/2015 18:41

I originally sprang from a bridezilla thread about wishing wells - used to be Giant Grasping Ceramic Fist (c.WallyBantersJukeBox). This is my Halloween name

hopelesslydevotedtoGu · 18/02/2015 18:44

I love singing along to musicals, but I thought Danny was a dweeb.
