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 :)

@billysboy you make me think of razor gangs and dodgy areas of Glasgow. A rangers fan perhaps?

Mine could keep you guessing but I guess if I explain my last two were:

HopingForALittleOne and then TreasureInMyTummy then you can guess my backstory... xx

Benjaminbuttonschild · 07/10/2018 19:31

Flatasapancakenow · 07/10/2018 19:33

Mines kinda boring if you think about it.

OnceUponATimeInAmerica · 07/10/2018 19:41

MrTrebus have you got the garden cleared yet? I remember him well.

Saltypeanuts I'll give you middle classes, but am definitely British so not very exotic or from a distant land! Was a random name change and it was the best I could come up with. About due another one...
