why did you choose your username?

I was a fan of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic years ago, but it's been faded away from my life; but I still like the LA in my name, which means Los Angeles.

Feel free to talk to me, if you wish.

Quincy (my name, of course) + -ium suffix for chemical elements

The initials of my first and last names are AP, and I went through a phase of calling myself "The AP" in my head. So I decided that I would use that as a username if I signed up for a forum.

Because I'm an idiot.

I was googling autism one evening and I stumbled across a thread that led me here, and I so badly wanted to reply to it, that I just signed up on the spur of the moment, I wasn't planning on permanently becoming a member here. I chose Joe90 because it was the nickname of this guy I quite liked, but I haven't seen or heard from him since, so now I'm just stuck with a MASCULINE username.

Number of my favourite preserved BR Class 33 diesel locomotive.

Purple is my favourite colour, and plums are one of my favourite fruits. Some plums take on a purple-hue, and I always quite liked those ones in particular. Just thought it would be a nice name because of that.

As some of you here may know, I have a terrible sense of direction. People used to joke about me by saying “You’re not lost, you are just taking the scenic route”. Overtime it became something of a catchphrase.

Regarding the dragon part of my username, I’ve liked the concept of that particular fictional creature since Primary school. Towards the end of a trip, I bought a small red toy dragon. On the coach back, a friend of mine introduced me to the “How To Train Your Dragon” book series.

I was soon entranced by the fantasy stories, a part of me found myself relating to the main character Hiccup, and I just wanted to know as much as I could about this fictional universe.

When I moved up to Secondary school, I read the entire book series in the Library. The books talked about Hiccup being able to speak to the dragons in a language which was unknown by the rest of the villagers in his village, only he understood the language. For some reason, I found the concept of that to be intriguing, but I couldn’t quite place why.

I admired his bravery when he went against popular belief, and his dedication to learning about something despite others making fun of him.

Then I found a friend who shared my interest, among with many other interests and we became close.

I used to be considered a bad kid, even unteachable by some. During my time in Primary school, I developed considerable emotional issues and often struggled with expressing anger appropriately and started to act out. Thankfully, with practice and patience I learnt how to better identify my emotions (still have slight issues with this though sometimes) and react in an appropriate manner.

Dragons are interesting in my opinion because of how much they vary depending on culture, some see them as a frightening adversary to be conquered, but others see dragons as a symbol of good fortune.

I picked my username because my name is Dylan and I chose the first four letter of my last name.

I guess it's pretty obvious since this site is called Wrong Planet, I sometimes feel like an alien lost on Earth, plus I added my age at the time I joined WP to the end of my username because I've been on other sites where so many names have already been taken and they want a more original one.

April Ryan is a video game character i love.

I like Kanye West

I didn't want to use my usual Internet handle, so I just arbitrarily picked the title of a Black Sabbath song that I really like, from an album that I really like. It's also a really positive love song, so I thought that would be nice. Otherwise I might've used A National Acrobat, which is probably my favorite song of theirs (and on the same album). It's about reincarnation.

I chose Joe90 because it was the nickname of this guy I quite liked, but I haven't seen or heard from him since, so now I'm just stuck with a MASCULINE username.

It was to rhyme words that were from an object.

My username is rhymed with tiki. Why was it written twice? idk.

The 53 was just a number that was more random.
