origins of your answerbank usernames

[pingping]

so, we all have weird an wonderful usernames on this site - how did you choose yours, and what does it mean?

i'll go first: my boyfriend always says that i make lots of random noises, so one day i said 'ping ping' to him several times, and he now calls me that as one (of my many) nicknames.

[pingping]

sorry - meant to also say that i hope i didn't offend you luna with my asylum comment!

[luna-tic]

Not at all ping, It's all a good bit of fun.
Oh yeah,can someone turn the heating up in my padded cell?

[pingping]

[luna-tic]

No such luck,my doctors are very mean.They said only a string vest is allowed.
