[Teuthida]

I'm impressed so many of yours go back such a long time. Let's see if I can remember the main olds ones...at least those I used for an extended period of time:

Diznov - My very first screenname. A mix of dizzy (think I was often lightheaded) and November (the month I was born.)

Can Of Dan - Not sure how I first came up with it but I began to eat a lot of meals straight from the can so it came to be associated with that.

Monkey - What I first signed up at NintendoDolphin.net under. I originally was going to go with Gremlin...but it was taken. Was interested in shifters at the time and wanted an animal...picked Monkey for being the more human like.

Danchastu - First three letters of my names. Thought up after watching Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon and liking the sound of all the three part names.

Dead Battery Boy - Not used on the forum but pretty much everywhere else for a period of time. In high school I got very little sleep and never ate during the day. Called this running on dead batteries.

Squid - Precursor to Teuthida. Just used for Halo at college. Whenever I killed one of my roommates he'd exclaim: "Squid?! I got killed by fuckin' Squid?!" Good times.

Sleepman - I sleep...man... At the time would turn my dreams into drawings and comics. Still use for my comics site.

Crusher of Dreams - Not a username. Just something multiple people have called me independently. Apparently I crush hopes and dreams. *shrug*

There are loads more but not worth going into.
