About
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.
I made up "sninky-chan" out of a nonsense word phonotactically suited to me, plus the Japanese honorific used when addressing intimates, primarily because the namespace is full of dictionary-based names.
First website that fascinated me, embarrassingly, was the ur-form of Riddler.com in late 1994. First thing to fascinate me about the Internet was USENET in 1990.
