The "how you got your username" meme
From
trollprincess:
When I first started this whole "internet" thing about twelve years ago, my name was PenguinX. Cuz I liked penguins, and because I was a tweener in the early 90's that thought X equaled radical.
About that time I saw Akira for the first time. Really enjoyed it. My senior year of HS I was in a Japanese class. When it came time to choose your Japanese name (you know, like pretty much every other foreign language class in high school you went by a different name than in real life). I chose Kaneda, the red leather jacket wearing hero from Akira. Because he was awesome, he was human, and he was voiced by the Ninja Turtle Leonardo.
So as the months went by, I slowly started started going into chatrooms sometimes as PenguinX and sometime as Kaneda. Then I decided to finally merge up, and KanedaX was born.
So, yeah, we're looking at 10 years or so for my name.
