What's the deal with your nickname? How did you get it? If your nickname is self-explanatory, then tell everyone when you first started using the internet, and what was the first thing that made you say "wow, this isn't just a place for freaks after all?" Was it a website? Was it an email from a long-lost friend? Go on, spill it.

Sometimes I draw stuff or make collages. I write and send a lot of letters and postcards. Writing dumb stuff makes me happy.

My MetaFilter username was inspired by how we compartmentalize real-life and online identities. And also when I signed up I was looking at a drawer, which is a type of compartment.
