I saw someone with “inner-child-abortion-clinic” on tumblr.
Saw a UrethraFranklin on reddit I think
I feel so validated!
To this day, I remember from probably twenty years ago or more seeing something on SomethingAwful that included the name “HPHovercraft” and it’s just the greatest. I’ll never forget it.
I don’t get it?
Is this a question? Is the answer no?
Definitely not mine. First, too many people don’t actually pay attention to realize it’s not “fuck” and surprisingly too few people get the joke considering Lemmy is so Linux crazy. But most frustratingly, people just assume I’m an asshole because of it and then treat me like I am. Sometimes I really regret it.
Telling people to filesystem check isn’t cool, man. Instead, we should coach them to switch to a journaling or CoW filesystem.
League of legends player named Fizz on my Jayce. Crass but clever.
Margot Robbie used to be around here
She was an extremely active user here, despite being a busy Academy Award nominated actress. I assume she’s busy filming her next movie, or maybe in talks to do Barbie 2.
Such a shame because she was actively involved in the Fediverse. We need more Academy Award nominated character actors and actresses to join. Then this place would really take off.
@MargotRobbie@lemmy.world, not sure if you’re still filming out of the country but drop a line here if you can take a break from your busy schedule!
there’s no way this is legit
Are you calling Academy Award-winning actress Margot Robbie a liar!?
I remember a guild called Two Maidens and Chalice. Can’t remember the game, but t’was funny.
Don’t try to win me over with your use of t’was.
T’wasn’t trying to.
That’s got to be mine
Where do you get your ideas from?
Yk there are very rare occasions where I decide to use my brain and that is the result. You just have to be as smart as I am, then nothing is a problem anymore!

Hey name sibling!
My personal favorite is FartsWithAnAccent@fedia.io
Yours was the first I thought of after reading the question…
Kind of similar to your own, there.
No theirs has humor, class and sophistication.
I think the first person to use an obfuscated name like lIiḷ|ḷiIl was pretty clever.
This has me really curious about the most obfuscated, ambiguous/difficult/problematic possible usernames both for security/privacy and interesting anomalies in general.
Feel like one could make a whole book on this – please send any resources that could shed insight if possibleI don’t know what technically constitutes the most troublesome username, but surely some of the kaomoji Japanese folks have come up with are up there. Good luck trying to type these.

You have me curious to know more. I already know some Japanese from being a weeb, but could you explain what makes your example so difficult to type specifically? I only recognize one of the many symbols used
I think kaomoji have been a thing in Japan even before unicode was invented. The Japanese encodings and IME (input method esitors) allowed them to type a wide variety of characters, punctuation and symbols that aren’t available in most western encodings, so I feel like the Japanese folks had a head start on creative use of typography.
For example, if you want an eyeball you can just type “do” (degrees), and the IME will pull up °, and “omega” gives you ω, so it’s pretty easy to make (°ω°).
I wonder if you can break copy-paste by mixing in similar looking characters from a right-to-left language.
Actually a security concern for the web: IDN homograph attack
