origins of your username
i came up with this name while reading "portrait of a killer: jack the ripper"
and the book was talking about how he was a master of disguise. and one of the names he went by as an alias was mr. nemo. he went by this because nemo translates to nobody in latin. so i was thinking about the movie "finding nemo" and how ironic it was that nemo means nobody. thus the name finding nobody was born |
do you think the makers of finding nemo called it that for a reason?, or do you think they just liked the name nemo?
im screamingskull because when i first joined in april 2005 it was my favourite sonic youth song. i played it over and over and over again, i liked that the lemonheads are mentioned in it because they were one of my favourite bands too. i didn't really think through my name properly as it didn't seem that important. and i didn't want to change it on the old board because i would have to start all over again at 0 posts. and i though if i changed it when the new board arrived it would be confusing for people who i talked to regulary. there is a screaming skull registered on this board too. lucky for me he/she hardly ever posts. |
I like ambiguous words without specific definitions that sound nice; phonic similarities to other words offer a evocation not present to pre-defined words.
Strangely enough, I was going to post this thread today, but thought better of it. |
i was thurstonmoore for a time on the old board, and then like a year and a half ago when i was a stuck up, cocky 14 year old kid. atari was bitching and was like "who do you think you are, a golden child?"
so i changed my name to golden child |
I think of parasites when I see Glice's name.

After reading Into the Wild, I wanted to be a nomad, but I wouldn't know how, so I would become a follower.

Mine comes from my earlier days as a candy raver, making collars out of fruit loops and threads before going to raves. I miss being a kid sometimes....

disney films do tend to have secret meenings to them. if i could change my user name without loosing my rep points, posts and confusing people i might, my MSN name is 'Coyote the free loving hippie' and i like that. i called myself that after an american guy called Coyote i met at a nada surf gig in london. |

Mine's a neo-masonic term derived from Prusso-Latvian rhyming slang, and refelects my interest in pineapples and medieval milk churns.
