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.

Nickname came from a silly song my friends and I made up because we were bored in Bio class.

I've been lurking around Mefi since 2004, and still content to lurk mostly. Enjoy discussions on tech, science/psychology, language and east asia. I also do photography (film and digital) occasionally.
