I thought I was totally original and clever only to find out this is a name of a book series.

I was really in to Zappa in high school and when I discovered Portal of Evil around '99 I took a username from Them Or Us: The Book (a self-published, 200+ page screenplay for a movie he never filmed).  It was the name of the stereotypical, pointy-tailed, Byzantine depiction of the devil.


I've been stuck with it ever since.

It's a word I like the sound of and it makes it harder for someone to locate my info just by googling my username. Also hello, I made this account when the forums started but only just decided to start reading/posting.

I am either:

a) The 9th Sultan of the Ottoman Empire, placed in stasis by someone (probably aliens) until the present day, when the United States government released me and set me up under a new name in the howling wilderness of the Midwestern United States.
or
b) A graduate student in the howling wilderness of the Midwestern United States with a background in Turkey.

Choose whichever one seems more likely.

Mine came from the before times, when I was into Homestuck. The only other person who liked it at my school and I tried to use a fan made version of the AOL ripoff it has instead of actual dialog. Every character had an 'adjective noun' name, and I was (and still am) a gigantic fan of Lovecraft's work. I'm also a writer, so I went with eldritchscribe originally, but realized that wasn't purple monkey dishwasher enough. I went with eldritchhat later, most likely because I was really into top hats back then, and it made a much more interesting avatar.

Now I use it all over the internet, so I can slowly grow my personal brand. [heisenberg]

you can probably tell I'm a bit young

My middle school friend needed me to have a cute nickname to match hers--she was "Nny" for Bonny (and she was obviously very into Jhonen Vasquez).  She named me--her lesbian accessory--"Nif", which is the middle syllable of my name.  "niftynif" just sounds nice, and most sites don't let you have a username that's 3 characters or fewer.

If none of you know which song I am referencing, I will be disappointed.
