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 :)

Don't know why but I'm getting 'political' and 'loyal'

I love some of the usernames I see but like other pp I've never thought about the back story.

@ButDoYouAvocado - I have a birthday card you might like with one avocado running away crying and the other one saying "I said you were a GOOD fat!"

Loyal maybe describes my politics Halo haha.

My name is a bit fangirly - Dwight and Angela from the US version of the office (my fave show) get together and I love them as a couple so that's where that comes from Grin

Can I have a backstory?

2ManyChoices · 07/10/2018 18:26

And mine? I'm intrigued...

YeTalkShiteHen · 07/10/2018 18:27

Mine is fairly obvious if you know the context.

I’m curious as to what you think OP?

Unicornandbows · 07/10/2018 18:28

Haremumscaremum - you are a good friend. I see you have a couple of close friendships but generally like to keep yourself to yourself

I do love lemon cake!

Wadewilson · 07/10/2018 18:28

I'd say mine is pretty obvious, but I'd be interested to see what you think it says about me
