Someecards is dangerous. I sent cards from there to my entire family recently, but I need to be sure that I don't send my parents the sort of card that I will send my sister.
Tact is just not saying true stuff. I'll pass.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
What was your first online handle?
Heh. I am "Teppy" on FetLife, but my real name on Facebook. And, of course, despite being Steph L. here, everyone calls me "Teppy" here.
So a large handful of FetLife people are also on my FB friends list, and they are constantly shocked when they see someone who they don't know (i.e., a Buffista) address me as "Teppy."
I HAVE CROSSED THE STREAMS WITHOUT AN EXPLANATION.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Because that is how a true badass rolls, muthfuckahs.

Hmm, I started out on AOL as dinky40 and still use it in my e-mail address, but otherwise I've always been a variant of my current username. Every now and then I think about changing it to my RL name, but I really like my username. I waffle, because waffles are yummy.

I started on usenet with my initials, but I've generally been some variation of Ginger.
ABC News just ran a piece on the turtles trying to get to their egg-laying grounds. JFK, inconveniently for the turtles, put a runway in the way [link] JFK stops plane traffic to pick up the turtles and give them a ride to the beach. ABC ran an exchange between the tower and an unidentified person:
"We've got turtles storming the runway."
"Do we really want to use the word storming about turtles?"

Now tagless for your comfort.
Started out as Cashmere. Cashmere everywhere--until I switched to my derby name on Twitter because I was tired of being referred to as a porn star and rapper. So I am Rose Redrum there.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
"We've got turtles storming the runway."
"Do we really want to use the word storming about turtles?"
This sounds like something out of Sports Night.

I started on Table Talk as Sophia Brooks, and here I remain. Not my real name, but a real name.

When I first went online I used my real first name & last initial. But my first "handle" was the pseud I still use over on LJ/DW. I'm pretty consistent...

My main email and my LJ ID are the name of a character I created for Star Wars fanfic 30 years ago (or more? I don't want to count it up). In other places, it's my real name (as here), or initials and my real last name.
My passwords are all characters from fanfics few people have read, so I think they're safe.
