My name came out of thin air.

My current avatar is from a SecretAgentBob video. It's not my avatar because I like the video but because it is a cat.

My signature is a quote by Saddam Hussein.

My name was from me making a secondary account on a game I used to play back in 06 or 07 or so called TheNinjaRPG. I basically sat at the "create an account" screen typing in random phonetic sounds into the username box until I came up with this. Then it just kinda stuck.
(Yeah, it has nothing to do with Pokemon. It wouldn't considering I've barely played any Pokemon in my life.)

My avatar is the little guy from the picture raocow drew in "People with a lot of wax".

My sig used to be some picture that said Ashanmaril and had random video game characters on it because I thought it looked cool but then I got rid of it because it was stupid.

My username came from the fact that I am quite prone to glitching out games without even trying, and the ghost part sounded cool at the end of it. Plus ghosts can be cool. You can also shorten my name to just Glitch.

My avatar is a crow, because I love crows and ravens. And that picture is too adorable.

The picture just kind shows how weird I can be... and I can be awkward at times.
He captured!

Bean's been my nickname since I was a teenager, and it came from Rowan Atkinson's character, Mr. Bean. The avatar is from Mega Man Powered Up, a game that sadly underperformed in sales when it was one of the deepest Mega Man titles around. As for the signature that I never show, it just has links to my YT and Viddler (still there) accounts.

My name was actually mostly from the N64 game Mischief Makers. For names on games I had, up until that point, been using an anagram of my own name. Then I got a new classmate whose name was that anagram so I needed a new one. The main enemies in Mischief Makers were Pheonix Gamma, Sasquatch Beta, and Cerberus Alpha. I used the same general naming scheme and came up with Onyx Alpha (named for the black rock onyx) which I typically just shortened to Onyx. The 3173 comes from my employee number at my first job. I thought it was noteworthy because it makes a triangle between 3 of the 4 corner keys on a numpad. This site is actually one of the last places I used this username.

My avatar is Hagane Miku. I don't exactly know what it's from but it looks kinda like an album cover.

I shouldn't have a sig.

I can't quite tell if that's a big mouth and two beady eyes or one big eye and two beady eyebrows.

It'd definitely 2 small eyes and a big mouth, but it does look like Demo wearing a balaclava if you look at it the right way.

Re: Where did you get your name/avatar/sig from?

Post by TheVulpineHero1 »

Name: I got 'The' from years of having the English language as my mother tongue, 'Vulpine' from the fact that the fox is the signature animal of my hometown, and 'Hero' from the name my lazy past self kept giving to RPG protagonists. (I lost count of the number of games where my party was composed of characters called Hero, Mage, Healer and Meatshield.) The '1' I acquired by screwing up my email registration for the first site I tried to use the name on.

Avatar: I had a look at the gifs on my computer (all three of them) and had a choice between Snoopy getting wasted on root beer, Konata from Lucky Star playing games of the video variety, and Timone gesticulating like a crazy mad meercat. The Konata one exceeded the filesize limit on avatars, so Timone it was.

Sig: I find it helpful to always have the ability to discredit myself at a moment's notice.

The origin of my name is my secret, to be that way forever since it's actually a really, really silly origin. Although I have made the mistake of telling a few people, oops.

My icon is fanart of Answered Prayers

I think I like it better as one big eye, lol.

The letters are close together on the keyboard.

Can't remember why I picked this avatar but it's been there from the start and won't ever change as far as I'm concerned.

Fun fact about that:

Stewardesses is the longest word you can type with just your left hand on the keyboard, and lollipop is the longest for the right.
Oh, and typewriter is the longest word you can type with just the top row of keys.

That fact sure was fun.

I don't remember where the "root joke" came from, but I think I recall that my name was supposed to be a corruption of "a large hill" or something.
My avatar is a close up of a HeLa cell, cropped beyond recognition.
I do not have a sig.

Because so many of us would recognize HeLa cell in a normal situation.
