Ive noticed alot of user names on here are very negative towards the person using them, i just want to offer a little advice, dont put yourself down.

By giving yourself a positive username is one of the small positive changes you can easily make in your life, i know it may sound silly and you think its only a username but it all adds to helping you feel good and positive about yourself.

I agree that it is not good to put yourself down. Using a "positive" name could be helpful to some.

But having said that, I also think that a username is just a username. I've used an inspirational username before and it really didn't make any difference for me.

Iam not saying that using a positive username is going to change your life, all iam saying is thats its a start to changing how you see yourself and its a small positive start in the right direction.

mine was totally random. it could be translated like someone permanently happy, seems like an uthopistic goal hah.

the real meaning , though, is the one in which company everyone is cheerful. i think i stopped doin everything in that direction bcoz noone seem to care or understand . I'm full time misanthrop nowadays

yea i notice a lot of self-deprecating screen names on here. I guess it's kinda punk rock in a way.
I think it's alright, as long as you don't put yourself down in real life in front of people who already think they are better then you.

lol as for mine(siren) i got inspired by a shade of lip color from loreal. funny thing is I don't even wear loreal lipstick. haha
i just added 0_0 bc i'm loopy like that.

can't change your username!

i wouldn't though. mine seems negative but it's just an awesome band. also, i love having really bizarre usernames to confuse people... or to make them think i'm really negative but see it differently when they get to know me. just another reminder that you never know who the hell you're talking to! oh, and it's also a reminder not to judge people.

so in a sense, my username misrepresents me completely! muahaha
