| Title. Just state how you got your username.
Okay so a long time ago, I was over at my friend's house playing Halo. My name in real life (Jacob) was gonna be my username. My friend, being the control freak he was, only allowed himself to hold the controller. So he had to ask me what I wanted to be called and he had to type it in. I told him I just wanted to be called "Jacob" or "Jake". He began typing, and he made a typo in the process and spelt "Java". We thought it sounded funny and cool so I stuck with it for the time being.
So, here's some ancient Jaconian lore for ye: Jaco's original username was, in fact, Java.
So, how did Jaco come up? Well, me and my friends all thought it would be cool if we had our own "companies". The idea was mine (I had already started selling homemade Pokémon Cards for a penny, so in a sense, I had a short-lived, unsuccessful, but somewhat existant, business). All of our business names were portmanteaus of our surnames and of other more popular businesses. What was mine? A portmanteau of Jacob and Company. Jaco. Am I not the cleverest person ever? To this day, it has stuck with me. With many mispronunciations along the way.
Your turn. |

You were SupaChu. You decided you like Kirby. You became SupaKirb.
As for me, my story is relatively uninteresting. It all started in a long ago time called "Fourth Grade". It was raining outside, so we had indoor recess that day. During indoor recess, we would play board games or computer games. I walked over to the computers and saw some kid, named Jeff (SPOILER ALERT: This is important later) playing on this strange newfangled website. He called it "Nick.com". It was apparently all the rage at the time. He showed me how to make an account, and I was immediately enthralled. So when I got home, I began to make an account. It asked me to choose a "username". When thinking of a name, the first thing I thought of was Jeff, because he showed me the website. So I typed in "Jeff", only to find out the name was taken. So being the imaginative child I was, I added "er" to make it my own. My genius plan, however, failed. "Jeffer" was taken. I was enraged! How could somebody steal all my ideas like that! So in a blind rage, I typed in something I was sure nobody could have taken: "Jefferlope". I had succeeded! I had fulfilled my dreams of joining nick.com, and thus, Jefferlope was born. From that day on, I would live my legacy as Jefferlope until this very day. *Closes the Big Boring Book of Jefferlopian History* The End._________________  |

| Alright.
In my past, I've had four usernames.
Machop90, which I used here and on Newgrounds. I had this because I was stupid.
Then Retros, which I used only here. I came up with while playing Super Mario Bros. 2.
Then, I got my Newgrounds username changed to Tetros. I just felt like changing it, so I never really came up with anything.
And a few months later, I asked for my Newgrounds username to be changed again, to Tetris, which I occasionally use int he Brawlroom chat. I came up with it after a few jokes about my Tetros username being a typo of Tetris, and I found out that Tetris wasn't a taken username. So, I got the change from Tetros to Tetris.
TOO MANY NAMES RARGH |

| Well, when I first discovered the art of making accounds on the internet I was wolfyscout11 (my youtube username which was in fact my first account xD) This name came about cuz my dogs name is scout and I was 11 at the time and then... idk I just wanted to add wolfy on for kicks |D This lasted untill recently actualy, but I decided to use Tiyou5 as my new constant.
The (incredibly long) history of how Tiyou5 came about and all the random names on xat? Well it started with my anime obsesion that has grown over the years. It started with Naruto (of course XD) and at first I didn't like it, I thought it was stupid but my cousin liked it and made me watch it while we waited to leave to karate lessons (I don't take them anymore otl they bored me). Then my friend (who is a bit.... skratch that a LOT on the crazy side) told me that it was anime and explained what anime was. I then delved into the start of my anime obsession. Then an old ex-friend of mine (the not so crazy one) told me about this show called Keroro Gunso and it was supposedly about alien frogs. I decided to watch it cuz it sounded random and from that I created my first fancharacter that hasn't died out of my favor yet! The infamous Tiyou! She went through 3 name changes otl. Originaly I started rping her on keroworld and joined in a fanbased platoon and I became CorporalGiroroTiyou, the Giroro in there was a cannon character that I had paired with Tiyou at the time. (but I hate OCxCannon now so I made an OC for her xD) At some point in here snease found me and dragged me around xat. I kinda remember comming to brawlroom once and then leaving, feeling intimidaited by all the people and the fast comments flying by. Snease dragged me somewhere else (I don't even remember where otl) and we dwelled there and we talked about banding together to make a little story. I became Nekonari for my character. Snease dragged Jeff over for a while to meet me and this is why he calles me neko while everyone else calls me storm XD Soon after Snease dragged me back over to brawlroom and I changed my name to StormThePachirisu just for the place. This is why everyone calls me storm~ I have gone through a bunch of random name changes all around this too but these are the most important. When I made an account on here I decided to make Tiyou5 a constant for my usernames now. BTW 5 is my fave number so I added it in |D
OMG PARAGRAPH OTL XD
You get a cookie if you read all that~ |
