Anyone else bored with the username but unwilling to change it?
I feel like my username truly does not represent who I am anymore--I am so much more than I was three years ago when I came up with this bright idea. And yet at the same time I'm not sure I'd get over the shock of changing it. An identity change once in a while can be a good thing, though...

:dilemma:

3. Ah, thank you.
I doubt I'll be changing it--as far as strokes of internet brilliance go, it's one of my better ones. I thought it had a damn lot of spark in late September of 2005. :evilgrin:

Just listless, ya know? :D

6. I know how you feel, but
I ultimately had to change mine to reflect it. Online forums would have made Trek TNG's Q rife with entertainment and it suits my animated persona too...

Besides, with "Tadpole of HypnoToad", I didn't fathom others would just call me "Tadpole", which is the antithesis of geeky cooldom. And "Q" was already taken and the concept of "Déjà Vu" is rather fitting, plus a pun on a good Q episode of Trek TNG, while remaining dissimilar from the abandoned "Q" profile (disabled I noted too)

No conflict, no muss, no fuss.

I hope. :D
