My original reddit name. It is on my 2 Guinness World Records for "Largest Online Secret Santa".
It means = Paramedic, guy(pig), and I did "save" two babies as a Paramedic.

They were out of Bort usernames.
In memory of the Apollo app.
Just made that shit up. I was trying to think of something stupid that wouldn't identify me in any personal way, and this one made me chuckle
It's like when kids make up a ridiculous nickname for you in grade school, but it sticks and you end up using it on your business cards.
I was tickled pink about this prehistoric fish that went viral a little while back and I thought I would adopt its name.
It's embarrassing. I'm not telling.
Sleeping pills and a misspelled person. It was my pirated minecraft username first.
I based it of the kid who goes “fahfahfahfah” in the pork chop sandwiches gi joe thing but everyone thinks it’s a reference to Jeff Dunham
i thought that my old username (that i came up with when i was 8 and creating an account for runescape) was too childish.
At some point after i watched donnie darko while being really high. The rest is history
I very briefly hosted my own Lemmy instance at endofti.me. The username seemed appropriate there. Just kept it when I moved instances.

I got it from a random generator after I had to change my Minecraft username when I was a kid. Been using it ever since.
My favorite cyberpunk book, Neuromancer has a bartender in it named Ratz who serves drinks to the main character in a bar called Chatsubo
Not so wild as I used to be.
At the time, I was playing a lot of Diablo.
Abbreviation of my real name yields "NW". I decided to add wind to make it a Hong Kong slang.
A fairy name generator.
It came from a one-off inside joke with some online friends (I don't remember the context) as PopeJoeI (Pope Joe the First). I eventually embraced it fully and changed all my online handles. At some point, Discord added crowns to server owners where it wasn't immediately obvious who owned it and it evolved into "Pope-King Joe".
I think mine is kinda obvious but in case it isn't, it's "GNU" in the International Radiotelephony Spelling Alphabet. I got it because I like aviation and Linux... and also because I'm too autistic to get a more normal one
It's a portmanteau of federation and degenerate. This account was going to be a porn account and I am a degenerate.
I was making a WoW character (back in the days even the Burning Crusade wasn't there yet). It was a troll with big tusks, so I thought he'd need a toothpick or two.
And the spelling is from "Don't be a menace to South Central...", there was a stupid gangster under this name, he's my soul animal.
Was my reddit username for ten years. When I joined reddit it was through the swimming sub, looking for info on waterproof MP3 players so I could swim laps while listening to AC/DC, Iron Maiden, Slayer, etc etc. I'm a bogan that swim laps pretty much every day.... therefore waterbogan
I made it up myself. I came up with the phrase decades ago, and recently decided it was time for a new online moniker since a number of people were able to deduce my real identity based on my old one I'd used for a couple decades prior.
I appreciate numbers.
I'll let you guess the second half 👍
The first half is actually short for Indigo.
Back in the day my old internet alias was Indigo Michigan. I eventually dropped the Michigan when I became a Brony. "Indigo Brony" didn't really sound great, so I shortened it.
I like Marvin from hhgttg. Also, I have sleep issues.
Golden Sun for GBA... except it was taken so I added an I... it's occasionally taken so sometimes I switch it for a 1 but I hate doing that
I read Les liaisons dangeureuses my second year in France and loved it. Misspellt de Valmonts name though :-)
The upside of the misspelling was that the name was always free on any forum up til not that long ago where bots started to recycle existing usernames all over the place.
Shit!
I got bored of winning all these fuckin accolades for porn.
Then the world started runnin outta french fries and burrito coverins, people starvin and shit.
Enough was enough!
President Camacho 2024!
