Because I'm fucking ridiculous
"Fluffles" is a shortening of my username "Flufflesthepancake", which is a shortening of the original "Fluffy the demented pancake".
Told you I was fucking ridiculous.

Well, the numerical part is kind of obvious really if you think about it and consider my age. As for the Shoggoth part...Well, I'm something of a Lovecraft fan (not so much anymore; I'm more into Pratchett at the moment) Also, since this is the internet and only about 0.01% of your will ever encounter me outside of this format, I may very well be a shapeless, formless abomination. Especially when I express a point of view or opinion that you personally don't agree with! It's win-win everybody.

Mainly because it's my name.

This is helpful as I'm pretty likely to forget my usernames.

My username is the same name I used for my favourite character in the game Guild Wars (an Assassin). When I first register onto this site I was stuck at making a name (lack of imagination I know) so I decided to use my Guild Wars name instead. I felt that name repersent me in that game so will that name repersent me again on here.

I needed a name that nobody else would ever have and that would fit in pretty much anywhere and still be undeniably mine.
It also helps to be an amateur writer.

Names aren't usually my strong point, but...Thyunda has a lovely feel to it. Despite the relentless thigh-related jokes, or 'the man under the thighs', it feels right at home.

From a movie I never even saw. Years ago I wanted a new user name on AOL (yes, back when AOL was big and such.) I remember seeing previews for Brad Pitt's movie "The Mexican" and at one point he yelled "EL CAMINO!!!" and it just stuck with me. So I made it my new username and it stuck with me since out of easiness to remember. I use it for just about everything. The numbers signify my birthday, April 13, 1983. I realize for many of you, you feel that way of writing it is backwards and honestly, I don't care. I'm American and it's how I was raised to write dates so deal with it :D

Quite Boring really, it's the 1st letter of my 1st name, my last name, and my year of birth.

Well, I was stuck at one of my Grandmother's house for a week. While I love my Grandma to death, and while she was a very good mother who stuck to her Son at the worst of times, the best way I can describe her is this.



Except, she smiles more. With a cigarette.

Anyways, I was stuck alone with for for a week, and about every other night she would go out with her friends. She only had three channels of TV, no computer, and a radio. Absolutely nothing to do.

The only thing that kept me entertained throughout this ordeal was half of a taped plastic sheath to a prop sword that comes with Halloween costumes, which I became attached to and used to make up worlds of my own. It literally was a tool that helped me direct the insanity from my boredom into endless entertainment. (I still have that plastic black Sheath 15 years later, and still constantly play with it.)

Anyways, I remember seeing an a cereal called Joe's O's, which were a shitty knock off or Cheerios. For some reason (I blame the boredom), it was the most insane thing to me that they had tried copying Cheerios.
