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.

So, I finally gave in, after lurking since 2002. I have an account. Finally. Hi Metafilter.

I'm previously a philosophy student, currently in my PhD program in History - now ABD!
