I’ve noticed some pretty interesting usernames on here. So I’d like to know, users of hexbear, why did you choose your username?

I’ll go first: I had been trying to create an account for the past month or so. I would put in the most stupid and childish names I could think of. This one finally stuck.

    To play COD3 online you needed a saved game file but I lost my memory cards so every time you wanted to play you'd have to create a new username which wouldn't save. At the time my younger brother was young enough he couldn't read/write so he'd always hammer in some random text/numbers until it filled the text field and he could hit X again to keep moving through the games menus. One time he hit in a random string of characters that started with jabrd and by happenstance we had a memory card in the system that day so I've just been using it ever since.

    Yes I have had my social media accounts found out by people I know irl because of this before, but just like the way I never erase my browsing history, anything you see is your fault not mine

      Pretty epic to no care what people will find on your socials. I’m always scared my grandma will somehow figure out the internet and find my shitposting accounts

        Pretty sure my mom saw my dick pic. I don't feel bad though because it was a pretty sweet dick pic :stalin-approval:
