    sarcasm is the lowest form of wit. It isn't. A pun is. Apologies to all.

    I think yours is a great name norm, made me smile anyway.

    I chose mine in homage to the great Morrissey, also it's different to any other user name I have so feels more anonymous. I realise that's a bit daft, but there you go!

    Because it's what I've become since getting my LBM.

    If I choosing one today it would be "Yay!It'sFridaysoI'mcrackingopenmyweeklybottleofMerlot" - which might not fit! :D

    Metz!! - haven't seen it for ages, used to drink huge (sorry, I mean responsible!) amounts of the stuff when I was younger.

    Red for hair colour (totally unnatural unfotuantely) and my birth year, wasn't my most imaginative moment.

    Actually ZTD is a contraction of a username I've had in other places.

    So it's actually the intials of a made-up name...
    "Follow the money!" - Deepthroat (AKA William Mark Felt Sr - Associate Director of the FBI)
    "We were born and raised in a summer haze." Adele 'Someone like you.'

    Mines dead boring.. when I logged on it wouldn't let me have my nickname that everyone knows me by of 'lipgloss!!!!!' and it just suggested my posting name.. Boring but quite apt as my name IS sammy (although I am not 115 as my name may suggest!)

    Mine is because I have a few tattoo's, nothing to do with the butterfly. Ones relating to my usual names were gone.
