Darklight Posted June 3, 2011 Other than that my username would usually be OpticalLight. Oh is that who you morphed into, I was wondering how you were. Glad you're still here! 4. I was lurking back when Darklight was modding and posting a lot and I thought her name was rad. Wow,I thought your old name was pretty cool, but your new one is good too Dunno if I've posted this before, but my name came about when T was starting up the forums I was going out with a couple of seriously wanky pagans. I thought the forum would last ten minutes before going up in flames, so I invented something to do with my environment and was pleased to realise it also sounded kinda like something you'd fluoresce a tab with. Or this. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_light_%28vision%29 In other words I went off on a tangent in my head and you all got stuck with the results, sorry. If I'd had my brain on forwards I'd have taken time for something simpler Very pleased the forum is still here tho, I don't often mind being wrong 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bℓσωηG Posted June 4, 2011 (edited) In 2002 i went to go to The USA to join my girlfriend i was with at the time . Apparently she had overstayed her visa , and I was denied entry because they had me listed as possible visa over-stayer as-well...I was interrogated for 5 hours straight ( maybe i look moslem because of my mono brow idk lol ) and locked in a cell without any shoe laces in-case i decide to hang myself for 17 hours until i was put on the next plane home... They stripped searched me and went through everything , asking stupid fucking questions about links to gangs, hinting at terrorism links (this was post 911 false flag) In my wallet they found a scrap of paper with my nickname blownG i used for ''Adult Friend Finder'' website... (come on i was lonely , my girlfriend been overseas for 6 months ) Fuckin retarded immigration / Nazi officer thought maybe it was code for bomb blowing up, fuck knows, but i was so over the insinuations and knew i had been put on some sort of terror watch list ... So out of spite i have adopted the nickname blowng for ever, for everything hahaha ... any way that's my story thanks for reading Edited June 4, 2011 by bℓσωηG 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tripsis Posted June 4, 2011 That's pretty funny blownG. Pretty fucked up what happened to you, but a good story to tell. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
faustus Posted June 4, 2011 hahaha great story blownG. fucked as it is, as an old man telling people stories about your life but like tripsis said i doubt for one second you'll regret that experience. just a hundredth of a hundreth of a percent of what happened to you, but last year i was held up by san franscisco customs for about 2 hours after they found a list of all the best places to buy drugs in the area that i'd printed out and highlighted from the website webehigh.com in my travel bag. as for the bulberator i also had in my bag? oh -- that's a cream charger. but the print out. hmmm... they were non too pleased! had to sit and wait in the customs interrogation room for about an hour. sterile, unfriendly rooms with cold steel seats. finally talked my way out of it, though having to explain why i had a visa to burma on my passport most certainly didn't aid the process! eventually i told them what they needed to hear in a hearfelt tone of voice and they eventually let me go. and they even gave me my printout back! deep down i was 99% confident they'd let me into the country, but blownG, even though deep down you also probably had faith that it'd all be sorted eventually, you must've still been shitting yourself Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Francois le Danque Posted June 4, 2011 ... So out of spite i have adopted the nickname blowng for ever, for everything hahaha ... wow that's an amazing story. though you still didn't answer the question. i'm guessing blown glass? my name is that which i give to those annoying hospitality workers who ask your name when you order (eg at boost juice and lord of the fries) so they can yell it out when your order is ready. since i don't like strangers knowing my name, and my real name is one that sounds like a more common name (so people always get it wrong, even people i've known my entire life) i decided to use a false name one day, and frank was the most boring, normal sounding name i could think of at the time. it was also one that was guaranteed to not be read out incorrectly. (another annoying thing is nobody seems able to pronounce my real name when they see it written. it's phonetic people!! stupid high school principle...) finally i decided that i like being blunt with people, and frank is a synonym for that. also unlike some i quite enjoy muffins (though cupcakes are better) and blunts, as i recently discovered. they're also much easier to roll than i expected, and i mean i can't even roll a cigarette ffs.

ThunderIdeal Posted June 5, 2011 some people..... some people like cupcakes exclusively while myself, i say there is naught, nor ought there be, nothing so axalted on the face of god's grey earth as that prince of foods: the mufffin!! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bogfrog Posted August 23, 2013 I thought it was time for a change.. I was bogfrog. But I have changed so much. Inner change must be reflected with outer changer. I have evolved into.. Ceres. Goddess of agriculture and abundance. Ceres was the goddess of the harvest and was credited with teaching humans how to grow, preserve, and prepare grain and corn. She was thought to be responsible for the fertility of the land. Coincidentally pumpkins were sacred to Ceres ;) "Ceres' name may derive from the hypothetical Proto-Indo-European root *ker, meaning "to grow", which is also a possible root for many English words, such as "create", "cereal", "grow", "kernel", "corn", and "increase". Roman etymologists thought "ceres" derived from the Latin verb gerere, "to bear, bring forth, produce"." 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

coolname Posted August 25, 2013 I was a bit under the influence when i signed up to this forum and was trying to think of a cool username but couldn't think of anything, so i decided on coolname 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
paradox Posted August 25, 2013 at the time of signing up i had been thinking a lot how reality can probably be best understood as paradox. the way all logical dissection of thought inevitably leads to an infinite regression into paradoxical nonsense. at the time it seemed like the truest way to express the way i thought about reality itself & so it seemed appropriate to use that as an identity. now it just sounds corny & obvious to me, like a very cheesy 'cool name' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
