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 :)

GunpowderGelatine · 07/10/2018 20:08

Sometimes. I noticed the NAMALT-y type people often have usernames like 'Mumto4amazingboys' or 'CountSteve'

Flatasapancakenow · 07/10/2018 20:08

I think mine's pretty accurate - you have a talent!

5ambreakfastclub - early riser, likes a good night sleep though, organised

meatbadger - hmm I'm just getting meat and badger, but I'm also thinking a bit off the wall, individualistic

ElspethTacioni - highly intelligent, thinks in a different way, driven by results

Queues patiently for Salty to do me a backstory Halo

SymphonyofShadows · 07/10/2018 20:17

Sorry Salty got forced to watch Doctor Who. Not classical, old punk but I do like a bit of goth darkness.

stabbybitch · 07/10/2018 20:17

Wow you are spot on! Although I feel about 99 not 29 Grin

Meatbadger · 07/10/2018 20:18

Hahahahaha love it

Saltypeanuts · 07/10/2018 20:19

Kipperthefrog - I'm thinking you prefer imagination to real life, you have a creative streak and you love soending time with children

Malucachu - someone who is a rule breaker and doesn't like time wasters - good fun and sense of humour

Mine comes from the same place as @MirandaWest but id probably more obscure

iklboo · 07/10/2018 20:21

Saltypeanuts · 07/10/2018 20:21

notacooldad - ah I think you are cool in a covert way - people just don't realise it yet!

Spot on. My name comes from the Simpsons movie though.

Enidthecat · 07/10/2018 20:25

Me please! I chose it for 2 reasons!

Saltypeanuts · 07/10/2018 20:28

snappednadfarted2018 - fun is definitely a big part of your life. You are sensible when you need to be but try not to take life too seriously. You are a balanced individual with a well rounded view of what matters

caringiscreepy - young, interesting life, you hold very dear the people in your immediate life

santaclarita - I see the colour red, you're bold, you like spending time with your friends. You can be quiet but there is a much different side to you that not many get to see

sitting on a cornflake - I'm thinking robust in the outside but maybe a bit more fragile on the inside, easily hurt? Can be too trusting, very loyal

nokidshere · 07/10/2018 20:31

I'm interested that you think you can create it but even more fascinated that everyone is agreeing lol

Please do mine

gothefcktosleep · 07/10/2018 20:32
