I stole mine from a guy named Varlos Z. Xxxxxxxxxx. I did not ask permission.
The “Knead” part refers to back-rubs. The “ToKnow” is meant to be in the biblical sense. In other words, “rub my back right, and I’ll wind up cooking us breakfast.”
Darn you, Chimp!
Darn you to heck!
Character on The Andy Griffith Show.
It sounds bad-ass. Srsly.
Funny. I always pictured a drunk hobo with a Star Wars fixation.
Oh. I thought you were just kinky.
You don’t think that’s bad-ass?
My friend from high school used to say the names of random things backwards and it would annoy me to no end. One day, I needed a new SN for AIM so I chose Tr0psn4j, which is the backwards version of Jansport with numbers instead of letters for “o” and “a”.
I’ve come to hate the name though since it’s pretty much unpronounceable. People online have shorten it to “trope” so I am slowly making the switch from tr0psn4j to Trope.
As a sort of an aside, my very first username was Ozzymage. This was back when we’d go on #e-league to play Magic: The Gathering. Ozzy as in the musician and mage as in a type of wizard. Had that name for years but I’ve never really liked Ozzy as a singer and hated everyone asking me if I’m Australian. I don’t have any clue why I ever picked that god awful name or why I kept it for so long.
Trope I like though. It’s short and sort of unique. I haven’t seen anyone with a similar name, although TV Tropes has trope in it’s name.
Worst part about Trope is some idiots pronounce it “troop.”
Like, seriously, guys? 
Your post should have been “You don’t.”
Oh well.
I had a dream that I had written a children’s book about an 8 year old boy that never aged. His name was Nars Glinley. I have no idea where my subconscious got the name from.
By any chance have you had a lifelong dream of selling yarn?
Annie, there are a couple of stories about Annie Christmas in B.A. Botkin’s Treasury of Southern Folklore. Interesting character.
I am very much a “last-adopter” of technology - have only had a cellphone for about four years, a computer about ten. I’ve never sent a text or tweeted or used Skype, or even downloaded music from the Internet. My car has a cassette player and I’ve only gotten cable TV since getting married last year - at my wife’s insistence.
On the information superhighway, I am the one with the “Caution: Slow Moving Vehicle” sign.
A fictional character in a fictional town of my own creation. I’ve written a couple hundred of these: The Report from Potter’s Point.
Vern doesn’t appear in this particular installment.
A family nickname I’ve had since 1967 (when I was 4) - I used to go ‘woot! woot!’ when I’d see trains.
Still love trains - just not as vocal about it anymore.
I wanted the most glorious name possible. And I had just watched a certain episode of Futurama.
The prominent warts had nought to do with it.
My cousin’s boyfriend nicknamed me Larz, which stuck pretty quickly. Then my cousin came up with Larzipan, and that’s what I use on websites when Larz is already taken.
Named after a childhood hero. No idea what it brings to mind for non-brits.
From this. Originally just wanted ‘Kobayashi’, but it was taken - so I joined the illustrious ranks of Dopers with ‘Mr.’ in their name.
