why did you chose your username? - Gummy - 02-25-2018
[i]I chose my username because it's a symbolism of what I feel inside.
As a little boy ages 5-8 my mom would always call me gummy and I would look at her like "why mom"
The reason why was because she said I was sweet as a gummy bear and that stuff (Emotions,Scratches,etc could bounce off of me easily.
So I thought in honor of my mom I call myself Gummy!

It's nice to read your username has personal relevance, particularly from a parent's standpoint.
I've had the same username since the beginning of my computational experience- over 20 years to date. I don't recall the exactness of how It came about, but a friend at high school named me mothered and It stuck with me ever since.

I like your username for some reason it's a weird but coo; at the same time.
I get a good vibe when I see your name though! Really nice person and make great staff.
Im glad your friend made a big impact for your name, are you and your friend from high-school still friends?

I like the Ender's Game series (of books, the movie was complete shit), specifically Ender's Shadow. Bean is a weird name, so I chose the next best thing, Ender. Could've also done Alai though.
Isn't there already a thread like this?

I think there is, but its old. I dont mind a new one.
Skullmeat started as an inside joke between me and some of my friends who were playing warframe at the time. I was new, and was being carried. I knew id be dying alot, so I picked something both unique and somewhat silly. Overtime as I got better at the game, it was no longer relevant, but the name stuck.

Thank you for your kind words.
I haven't seen my friend since high school (and that was a very long time ago), but I wouldn't have a problem In tracking him down. If his memory serves him correctly, I may finally get an explanation of his reasoning behind my username.

I saw ender's games the movie, atleast I think thats what you are talking about. The movie was ok like 5/10, personally Im not a science-fiction type of guy. The books where boring but for some reason I love the name Ender, so I think it's a good name for you!

When I think of Skull-meat I think of a cannibal
It's scary but yes I agree with you the name is unique

When my father died of a heart attack while the song "Gangsta's Paradise" by Coolio was playing and it is in remembrance of him

@Gummy that's a very interesting story, does your mom know you are keeping that name for your online identity?
I actually just thought for some stuff that could fit me as a person and I came up with chunky lol
