Why'd you take Chichevache?

Because the name is an amusing and ironic concept from an interesting literary work that seemed perfectly suited to a comedy website and absolutely nothing at all to do with "mon-guh". At all.

Just another jackass on the Internet
I was trying to come up with a user name for an internet gaming service and I was having no luck coming up with something not in use. I got frustrated to the point of blurting this out loud.

It wasn't in use :v:

Mine is a horrible butchering of the UK spelling of "maneuverable" which I like just because it's so funky but I realized way too late that I misspelled it

But I've stuck with it ever since and it's never taken on any game I've ever played

Nope, not a jumble, a straight up word search in science... My Jr. High wasted my time a lot

The first seven letters across the top were

Lt. Chips. A nickname given to me by a friend while at Oklahoma DDay (a bigass paintball event that is inspired by the landing at Normandy). He stuck an empty bag of potato chips in my camelpack and called me Lt. Chips for the 2 or so hours it was there unnoticed by me. A bunch of others picked up the name due to my confusion and eventual annoyance.

I couldn't think of a witty or clever name and didn't want to use one of my many, many other online handles so I clicked "Random Trope" button and this was the first page that popped up.

I am not a clever man.

Aw but you got a good one.

My original handle was MechaFrogzilla because Frogzilla was a dumb handle I'd used for years, was taken on this comedy website I was signing up for, and I took the lazy variant because, how much time was I gonna spend at this place, anyway?

Ten years later...yeah, I was ready to jump into the GBS name change thread. Will probably move on from this one at a good opportunity, but I like it better than the old one.

My current name and avatar came from a new avatar fest in TFF a couple of years ago or so. I came up with the custom title, and I think I chose the name myself too.
