Finally someone asked, right?
I made it up myself. I came up with the phrase decades ago, and recently decided it was time for a new online moniker since a number of people were able to deduce my real identity based on my old one I’d used for a couple decades prior.
I like Marvin from hhgttg. Also, sleep issues.
I was a bookish child and my mother used to take me to the local library weekly. On the way to the children’s section I had to pass the large print shelf. There was always this one hardback book there, The Spitting Image. It had a bizarre looking gargoyle on the cover and I used to look away so I wouldn’t have nightmares about it, but peek at it between my fingers. Every week for years the spitting image would watch me run past it to the Tintin books. Eventually I lost my fear and I could look it straight in the face. It was a goofy thing, nothing like as sinister as I first thought.
Once upon a time the world was a magical place and I used to invent my own rituals as protection.
I had a boss back in the day that I had a really good rapport with, and he would jokingly call me Shrek because I was almost a foot taller than he was. I also worked in a lot of restaurants in my late teens to early twenties and found a love for cooking that has never really gone away.
I learned how to solve a Rubik’s cube and figured I could make a username out of it.
Plus, it doubles as a reference to a pixel on a screen and I’m a security engineer, so… It kinda works both ways.

A cheesy 90s drink, they were fun to see how far you could spit the jelly bits, or just a kinda fun drink I rarely saw as a teen. Nothing great but when you lived in the middle of nowhere it didn’t take much in the mid 90s to be entertained as a teen.
Main character from The Darkness that Comes Before/The Prince of Nothing series by R. Scott Bakker. Liked the character, liked the name, loved the books.
Uhh. I was inspired by a manager.

I have a group of friends that did a lot of camping when we hit early 20’s. We actually put a cardboard 6-pack holder around a piece of wood… it was our “Log”. We kept it for a few years. Then burned that bitch during a blow out pre-wedding camp out.

Honestly? I was trying to hard.
