unforthWhy work when I can do this meme?
1. My username is ____ because ____.
2. My journal is titled ____ because ____.
3. My subtitle is ____ because ____.
4. My friends page is called ____ because ____.
5. My default userpic is ____ because ____.
1. My user name is Unforth. In 1994, when I first signed up for AOL (yeah, yeah, I know) I couldn't find a user name I liked (I wanted one related to ST, but just couldn't find one) and my mom finally looked at me and said, "How about Unforth?" To which I replied, and I quote, "huh?" So she explained to me that in the 1970's, she, my uncle, my father and a family friend had played some Dungeons and Dragons (this was long before I became a gamer, though I was always a fantasy freak) and that Unforth was the name of her male dwarf fighter, who had been totally awesome. (not an exact quote, but the general gist of it, certainly. ;)) I have been Unforth for everything I've signed up for ever since then. It's never, ever taken, which is amazingly helpful, and it means that I randomly get contacted every once in a while by people who I used to know, which is cool.
2. My journal is called Writing and Stuff, because when I first started my journal, the entire point of it was to write fiction in it, not to, for example, fill out meme's...
3. My subtitle is Ramblings of a Bored College Student...I think that one's pretty self explanitory...
4. My friends page is called friends, because I've yet to have the time or the inclination to customize much in my LJ. :)
5. My default user pic is a picture of me from high school. I have the matching photo some place (since my pic is of me taking a picture of someone...somewhere, I do have the picture of him taking my picture...) and should probably scan it. The reason I used it was cause I really wanted a picture of myself (as opposed to anything else) and at the time I made the user pic I couldn't find any other pictures of my self online, and my scanner wasn't hooked up.
...now that I'm done, I think my answers are really boring. ;) Ah well.
