Drunk and wondering...(lighthearted)

[Midsommar]

...how you came up with your Mumsnet username?

I've seen some strange ones (one that stands out is JizzPigeon haha, strange is not a bad thing!) so I was curious as to how you came up with your names.

All dressed up and no where to go. Something my mum used to say but also feels very apt for the current times.

I aspire to be just like Catherine Tate's 'Nan' some day

What it says. I tried 5 or 6 other names first, but they'd all been taken.

Nothing clever or super intellectual unfortunately. I had hurt my ankle which made me feel cranky on the day. I tried about 30 names, all of which were taken and this came to mind.

Well I’m just common

Obvious (also drunk btw)

To do with where I live

I tried loads but they were taken. Was on holiday at the time wearing a t shirt that said hola for hello. Typed it wrong and got halo and the numbers were to ensure it got accepted and hadn't been taken.

I frequently say I am in a right pickle, that wasn’t available so I had to add preserve too.

God I am pissed

It's a play on a Joni Mitchell album.

It’s a book reference.

These are all interesting mine was a horror movie reference (a film called Midsommar). Thought it sounded cool, haha

Mine's a book ref too. I was delighted when a poster on another thread got it 🙂

changed it to this at the start of lockdown when I was wondering what a few months of being at home on my own day in day out would be like.
Not many duvet days, but I have done the occasional 9am meeting still wearing pyjamas.

Mine was feeling my age. How on earth am I this old?!

A film reference here too.

I hear you! I keep looking in the mirror and wondering why a very tired version of my mum is looking back at me!

I just wanted swear words in my username

Mine is what I say to myself in the evening when I don't know what to snack on

I love broccoli

I went for it because I'm feeling a bit nostalgic for when I was at school In the 90's.

I looked around for inspiration and there they were.

It was at the start of lockdown, when we couldn't go out anywhere apart from the local shops if we really needed to and it made me think of picnics in the park and sunnier days
Still a bit baffled as to what the poster insinuating I was a perv and dodgy, and that I should google was all about lol - think they have ishoos and says more about them than me lol, reallllllly not going to google either lol.
Maybe need a more "well 'ard' name next name change

Dd went through a 'bye Felicia' stage (those with teens may remember that from a few years ago?), I'm programmed in her phone as Birth Giver so nicked the combination from her.
