It takes place in Purgatory/Hell even though they never actually say it.

My name simply means 'water' in a language I made up.

If the V was a W, you would have the same name as the manager of Arsenal FC (Arsène Wenger.)

I'll let you figure it out. I'm too lazy to explain my nickname right now.

Cracked Pleasures is merely a reference to one of my all time favourite bands, goth rock pioneers Bauhaus, but it has a more deeper meaning.

Basically the name comes from the song "The Passion of Lovers (is for death)" by goth pioneers Bauhaus:

She had nut-painted arms that were hers to keep
And in her fear she sought cracked pleasures
The passion of lovers is for death, said she
Licked her lips, and turned to feather



So in the first place the nickname refers to Bauhaus, one of the bands that I couldn't do without. I also just like the somewhat invented word and the double meaning of it.

Also, I have OCD and anxiety issues with erotophobia being a part of it. Still, I feel normal attraction to women, but my OCD issues sort of make it an anxious thing to approach them and experience sexual attraction. So in a way I also do experience that fear when seeking my own "cracked pleasures".

I just thought the combination of that little fact with the nicely made up term sounded nice, while it is in the first place paying tribute to Bauhaus.

A Warsie is a slang term for Star Wars Fans, normally used in forums and the like where Star Wars Fans ('Warsies') and Star Trek Fans ('Trekkies') argue over which series is better, whether the Empire can kick the Federation's as, etc.

I use this as I am a Star Wars Fan (also a major username, on the internet I'm either 'Warsie' or 'Star Wars Fan' (with spaces) )

Mine was before college, unfortunately, and as such it was retrospective that I was then, a computer gamer, mostly of the Command and Conquer series.

My current nickname is Ninja. Story behind that one is I took Taekwondoe (SP?) and kenpo for 6 and 2 years respectively, and on campus at my college, I have a bad habbit of sometimes sneaking up behind people and scaring them, not to mention that I wear a fedora, and this years halloween costume was me looking a tad.......well ninjaish. as i mentioned, I wear a fedora, and carry around a nerf gun a lot( for those of you in college who play it, Assassins). Not to mention my nickname carries weight, apparently. I went into the local coffee shop in town where I go to school at the other day after getting back from a camping trip, and the barista says "Hi Ninja." It's a well known fact taht more people at school and around town (pop 20 thousand during the summer.....come August....up a few) know who I am. Not to mention my friend who I hung out with the previous day, Im's me and says, "You are awesome, I was with friends last night who are jealous that I got to hang out with you." so not only well known, but celebrity status....two things which someone like myself (me being a former AS now NT with some AS quirks) who is A) very egotistical B) very prideful, and there's about two people who can take me down to size anyday, both of them lady friends of mine and C) the fact that I'm slightly not all that social unless i make an effort to (fall semester both freshman year and this past year I sorta stayed in my house on campus and didn't go out much cept for classes and food).

So. yeah. that's my story. Oh yeah, and my IM accounts all denote some various aspect of my ninja-ness

My name is my favourite X-Men villain. It's been my nickname on pretty much every other forum I've ever been to.

And my avatar is the Heath Ledger Joker, because The Dark Knight is an awesome film :)

I was nu-be on another forum, but that got old after a year or so. Wanted 'gadfly', but it was already taken.

From a poster on 'You can't do that on Star Trek' web site; the Pakled award for Smart People and Technical Things'...;)
