to over think people's user names?

I normally just read posters comments, but I have become very drawn to people's user names. I won't single any out as that is probably inappropriate, but a lot of usernames are creating a real imagination and back story in my head (all good and positive and some a rude lol).

Does anyone else pay any attention to this or am I going through an odd phase?

BTW I enjoy KP snacks :)

Haha! Thank you! My analysis is probably the complete opposite of my personality, but I did choose my user name in a somewhat depressive moment!!!

profpoopsnagle · 07/10/2018 21:50

Please could you do mine?

Want2beme · 07/10/2018 21:52

Salty, how are you doing this? I've definitely become scatty in the last couple of years - worryingly soShock. I'm very sensible, have empathy when my scattiness doesn't get in the way. Still striving for intellect Grin.

Brilliant!

Oh I wish I had a better one so you could do mine?? 😂

To be fair mine are the first letter of each word of my old username, I can't remember the password for that one so not just random letters!

QuestionableMouse · 07/10/2018 22:00

Lol yep that sounds like me.

ToffeePennie · 07/10/2018 22:01

Mine should be easy. But go on, backstory me!?

HeronLanyon · 07/10/2018 22:02

Salty peanuts you are like that woman (Brazil) who draws line drawings of cats from photos tweeted. She did so many she had to rest her drawing hand for weeks a while back. I fear,similarly, for your ‘username clairvoyant’ muscles becoming overworked ! You are
Amazing.

You'll never figure me out, I'll remain a mystery.

BernardsarenotalwaysSaints · 07/10/2018 22:13

Ah thank you Salty mine's pretty spot on too Smile

sabrinathethirtysomethingwitch · 07/10/2018 22:14

Buggerbrexit · 07/10/2018 22:15

TwistinMyMelon · 07/10/2018 22:15

WittyWithWine · 07/10/2018 22:20

I don't think you want to trouble yourself with my back story. My magnum opus is the size of a brick.

(But do me!)

littlestrawby · 07/10/2018 22:25

Saltypeanuts you have a gift!! Mine was spot on! Bless you for taking the time to indulge all of us Grin

You are a bit sassy and can be unpredictable- you are known for your kind nature

Grumpy old blonde- I think you are a young fun loving brunette (at heart)

Many of us change our username regularly - so it would be more of an epic than a story you'd need

Saltypeanuts · 07/10/2018 22:33

Ladies I must leave - my oracle is calling - hope to communicate with you soon -

Good night sleep 💤 tight

Love it @Saltypeanuts, thanks. Good night!

HeronLanyon · 07/10/2018 22:38

Well I am irrationally pleased salty did a reading of mine despite not (quite) asking for one. Even more pleased at what she saw. She is indeed talented ! 🤗

GoatYoga · 07/10/2018 22:40

I rarely notice usernames - what do you think of mine?
