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.

The username is a university thing, I'm sorry to say. I acquired the nickname 'Minwax' in college, which morphed into 'Waximilian Banks, purveyor of fine goods and services.' Could've been worse: one guy in the house went by 'Puppyfucker'. I never asked why.
