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've had a lot of good times on the internet in the decade or so that I've been using it, since the days of Blink 182 message boards on AOL, chickclick, and Teen Open Diary. And I know I'm going to have a lot more.

I like cheese, books, art, and makeup, although I rarely post about any of these anywhere. I went to school outside of Boston. I'm a devoted fan of Britcoms and clever TV shows.

And that's pretty much it.
