I don’t mean my username! Yours!

I guess this is more of a game and maybe not strictly the right place. But, the idea is to make a top level reply with you asking ‘guess’ or saying ‘:)’ or what have you, and everyone else should answer what they think the username means or refers to, without looking any words or concepts up! Off the cuff, what do you think it means when you see this person’s username?

Not sure about the mobile apps, but if you hover over someone’s name in Lemmy it will show their username if they have a display name set. My username is quite boring and straightforward, but I like seeing other people’s weird usernames especially on semi-anon places.

Bonus: What do you visually think when you read it? Even if you misread it as a typo, what did you imagine when you read it & saw their avatar?

      Nope! That’s a good guess though considering my recent hobbies. I had a pipe burst earlier this year and ever since I’ve been working to repair the damage in my house. My dad has worked on houses my whole life and I’ve learned a ton from him! It’s nice to be able to stretch the insurance check a bit by doing the hard work on my own.

      I have a leak in my roof though, and I’m not looking forward to the quote for that because my roof is old and apparently not well ventilated, so I’ve got moss in my shingles now. That’s something I can’t do on my own.
