Saw this posted on the Official Movie board and just had to post the same thing here.

Ill start:

I am completely obsessed with wolves. One day, I played a game with my brother on the computer and I wanted my name to be Little Wolf. It was too long so I shortened it to Litwolf. The numbers are my birth day and year.

Many people who know me really well think the 'Lit' stands for 'literary' because I love to read but its just short for Little Wolf.

What about you?

Neat post

I'd love to come up with a great explanation for my screenname... but I haven't got one. Put simply, I chose "Needy" because its the name I go by at other forums - and I like to keep things simple for me

Although, the name Needsalt(of which Needy is short for, and which I go by at the official board) stems from the tv show First Wave. It was somewhat of a staple of the show because salt came in handy against the alien foes who just couldn't handle it. Though, to be honest, I chose needsalt because I was trying to prove to myself (after trying so many different usernames whilst registering at Delphi forums and being told all were taken), that I wouldn't be able to be accepted with the most obscure name. Turns out I was wrong

Still, I gotta say, considering my position on my crew's ship is Male Companion, Needy is quite an appropriate nickname



Needy. Male Companion a.k.a. First Boy Whore of Destiny

I love whenever Willow or Spike says Piffle in Buffy.
But Piffle means nonsense and I just added 101 just in case anyone else had it. But no one did. So it's pretty much nonsense 101..lol Which makes absolutley NO SENSE! Which is pretty much whatever comes out of my mouth.

There ya have it.

As kind of a play on bad movie (Reefer Madness) and yet is applicable to the show.

When I die I want to go peacefully in my sleep like my grandpa. Not screaming and yelling like everyone else in the car he was driving.

Star Pilot Grainger is the protagonist of a series of 6 short novels, written in the 70s, by SF Author Brian Stableford. They're sort of space opera/adventure/biological mysteries, for the most part.

He's a pilot of spacecraft who was marooned on an alien world, and while he was there, he was infected by an alien mind symbiote that was also stuck there. When he was rescued, he was saddled with a huge debt by a legal judgement on behalf of the corporation that wasted time and resources rescuing him (they were looking for something else and thought he was that). Grainger was interesting to me because he's cynical, sarcastic, fiercely independent, and messed up in a lot of ways, and yet he's almost a complete pacifist (I bought the first book because it was listed as an example of pacifist characters in science fiction), and the mental symbiote wants to improve and socialize him but he won't have any of it because he's stubborn.

I happened to be rereading a collection of all of them when I signed up here, and was thinking about roughly basing a character in a hypothetical Firefly based RPG on him at the time, so I chose that as my name.

Trying to remember a different user name depending on where I am makes my head spin, so this is one of a small handful of names I go with. In this case, it's the name of a character in a story I sketched out years ago but never wrote. I use other names from that story for low security passwords, so if I ever actually write it, I'm screwed.

I go under different names on different boards. Depends on my mood when I was signing up. On this board, I use DRU. Dru was one of my favorite characters on Buffy the vampire slayer.
