How did you come up with your username?

I’ll go first, it’s simple, the Internet is literally an open field where anyone can do whatever they want.

I have bad handwriting and my friend misread something I wrote and I just added some numbers to it

Mine's a variation on Yog-Sothoth from the Cthulhu Mythos.

Way back in the day when I was on another social media they banned my account and asked for identification because of my name at the time....so I made up a variation with this user name on a payslip in photoshop and they accepted it.

I kept going down in Black Ops 2 Zombies from lag, was connected by hotspot. After my 20th down I screamed I AM THE LAGGINDRAGON and never looked back.

Back in the 90s there was a show called Space: Above and Beyond. It has a space marine unit called the wildcards. Since then I've been using wildcard as a username. But now it's hard to get that name without putting something extra at the end. So I settled with wildcardology. Wildcard+cardology and I don't even know anything about cardology.

I'm obsessed with the idea of blending in inconspicuously while also am proud of being Michael Jordan's height... I'm an OxyMORON and I love/hate it
