[AlmondMilk]

I was originally Alex55. I changed it because I got tired of it. Alex was the first name that popped in my head for no reason. And 55 was the first number that popped into my head. With AlmondMilk, I like almond milk. Besides, I thought it was fitting for JUB. Almond milk is like a metaphor for...oh you know

I've always used cartoon characters as my sign-in names. When I decided to join JUB, I figured it made sense to use a gay cartoon character's name. (The writers of Gargoyles maintain that they didn't plan on making Lexington gay, but they came to realize that's what had more or less happened. They couldn't write about it directly, but they'd occasionally make vague references to it here and there.) There already was a "Lexington" when I signed up, so I added the G-. Either for "gay" or "gargoyle".

Lex

Wow... I never picked that up. I think I have to start rewatching Gargoyles

i got mine from my nickname. i grew up in west Texas next to the Mexico border so a lot of us would go to Mexico and.. well do things that might land a gent in jail in the states. dont worry no animals were harmed.

 

[DeafFoxDemon]

My name DeafFoxDemon , I pick deaf as the first part of the name because that what i am and fox demon from my love of Naruto and japan mythology, Kyuubi no Kitune! so the rest was history

 

[asadoyayunta]

It's a Japanese folk song referenced by Blondie on the Curse of Blondie album. I'm a massive Blondie fan and thought it was more obscure than say Picture This or Heart of Glass!

Don't mean be be a nudge, but I do believe there is an s in kitsune. But that's good to know that I'm not the only one interested in both Naruto and japanese mythology.

My French teacher called me a biOtch when I corrected her English grammar a few years ago. The funny thing is that all of my friends call me a biotch now.

 

[The Loner]

It speaks for itself.

 

[Vannie]

Sounds better than Gassy.

 

[LoveMyPeppermill]

My avatar, username, and the legend below it should be self-explanatory when taken together.

That little peppermill was on my family dinner table since before I was born. It was one of the few things I wanted when my mother downsized her household and moved into a senior community. (The peppermill and the toaster oven. Then, later, after she died, some patchwork quilts. I'm not taking those out of the box, though, until my cats are ten years old and somewhat less inclined to claw quilts to shreds.. I just had to thrown out two quilts this summer because they were literally falling to pieces. Thanks, girls.)

It's French.

 

[Alistair]

Mine was a nickname my first boyfriend gave me. It has stuck around every since.

 

[metta]

I have friends that call me this. I first learned about it when taking a meditation class and studying Buddhism.

[Dargelos]

At the time that I was setting up my internet accounts, the book I was reading was Les Enfants Terribles so that is where it comes from. If it had been a week earlier, I was still on Hamlet so I would have become Polonious.

Especially when you wake up all wet.

Wait ....nevermind......delete....

 

[Thad1527]

The name was a nickname from long ago that I liked. The number is forgotten to time.
I was here in 2011 but not as frequently as I am now...so I missed the origination of this thread. There were years I had limited JUB access, before affordable smartphones; library computers still block it.

 

[frankfrank]

My name is Frank, and I am sincere (frank) in my interactions with other people.

I could use an alternative meaning, because I work from home, and part of my work is adding prepaid postage (franking) to packages.

You're not French then?
