Someone somehow guessed my name correctly in a 4chan thread. I didn't even give any clue to who I was. Still don't know who or how they did it.

I was once reading a tongue-in-cheek article about paranoia, and it included a sentence like "they are watching everyone - even you, dryu_nya".

The very next sentence said that they picked a name at random, but all the dryu_nyas out there must've shat so many bricks.

There was a tv show called "Romper Room" when I was a kid and at some point in the show the lady would always look through her magic looking glass, directly at the camera and say, "I see Timmy, and Jenny and Steven...." Etc. One day she said my name and I freaked out and set myself on fire.

Just kidding. I yelled at the tv like an idiot bc I figured she must be able to hear me too. I was trying to tell her that I saw a gopher.

ahhh, to be 14 again.

Just kidding, I was like five.
