So i was wondering how did you come across your online name. So ill go first to show you what i mean

So the first time i heard the name Boomsickle was from a freind(some white guy)in middle school he used to play his DS all the time and i believe he said it was a name from some DS game something about 2 guys who are like FBI agents or something and you gotta click the buttons to the music or some shiz so pretty much i stoled it from him and if you were to search boomsickle 80% of the stuff is me and the rest are him

It's an anagram of part of a misread spoonerism, with a syllable of my actual name, and a letter or two, added. I chose it on a whim.

For all those thinking of thanking me for the scanlations, I only upload them, and I'm just a mod here. Please leave a message on the actual groups' pages that do all the hard work.

Way back in HS, I read this novel about a amnesiac nun who ran away from the convent. She got pregnant, aborted her kid .... lalala

She was labeled as psychia, meaning "crazy" which is actually how I describe myself.

Taking a psych degree made it official.

My name is my name; that's just how it is in this forum. As for other forums and games, that'll be a different story.

Well, I was playing... A... RuneScape private server, and I had just started and needed to choose a name... (This was about three years ago, give or take a year), and I had just finished watching the anime of Mobile Suit Gundam: SEED... And I didnt have any other ideas XD. After that, I.. Met some interesting people, and made some nice memories, so this name kinda just sticks with me... Plus really easy to make some... jokes out of it XD XD XD. So yeah, now I use it everywheeerreeee as my username :P.

I found "sunfire" from the mail and changed it slightly. now i use it for almost everything.

there's a filipino/spanish(?) powdered treat called "polvoron," but i use a "b" instead of a "v" in mockery of filipinos' inability to discern between the 2 letters.

The second part is just arbitrarily chosen based on complex algorithms that I don't understand. So I guess nostalgia?]

i chose bumblebee because it has many B's and it's fun to say aloud [bumblebeebumblebeebumblebeebumblebeebumblebee] ^_^

Remember the cartoon Gargoyles? There was a character named 'Matt Bluestone'. Liked the last name. Started using the Internet and while trying to come up with a nick, I thought back to Bluestone. Wanted to change the color though.(Already three or four Bluestone at the time) Eventually chose the color gray. Then there was the matter of what vowel to use - gray/grey. Decided to use both vowels. . .that and it looks cool.
